new symbolic category not working

[lithman]

Just bought 3.0.5 tonight and got it installed fine. Add New Category didn't work too well, it only works if you put just the Title in (no description or meta tags or it won't work). However, when I try to add a symbolic category, nothing will work. I tried all options. I just click save, and then nothing happens. It doesn't add the new sub category.

Any ideas?

It has nothing to do with the META tags :)
Edit admin/dir_categs_edit.php and search for (line 167)
Content visible to registered users only.
Replace with this:
Content visible to registered users only.

Thanks, but it's still not working.

This is what it now looks like.

Content visible to registered users only.

Oh, I understand now what you are trying.
You cannot add a symbolic category for another category in the same parent category.

For example you have in the root level of your directory a category "Arts". You won't be able to add a symbolic category to "Arts" also in the root level.
Eighter you create the symbolic category in another category or you select the category you want to link from another level.

This is ment to work so.

However if you want to force this, you can remove following line from templates/Core/admin/dir_categs_edit.tpl
Content visible to registered users only.
