XF 1.4 properly make a subforum?

[marissa Desanta]

Hello I am trying to make new category above my "meet the staff" area with a new category on top.
I'd like it to say "meet the spirit team" and when you click, it will send you straight to their introduction threads. I Managed to make a new category but it wont allow me to post threads in it unless I make another "click here to meet the spirit team" and THEN it shows you the threads.... the problem is it feels like they are buried way back there :/

I've seen people have a sub category where they just click the category and it shows the threads....
How do I do it?
It would be great if someone could walk me through it. Thank you!

Threads can't be posted in categories.
You can only post threads in forums.

You will have to recreate it as a forum.

So if I wanted to make a forum above my forum category it would be a sibling? Child?


When I tried to make a forum one it just added it to my main forum list, I'd like to keep all the meet the staff in one section.

Yes, create it as a child.
