I noticed a bug with the 1.8 version where group forum creation during a group creation wizard is broken. For now, I rolled back to 1.7.3. Since my group gets created, I was wondering if I could create a group forum after the group was created but did not see that option.

So, I guess I’m asking for a feature request to be able to create a group forum at a later point.

@bardlehel at what point/step during the group creation process does it fail in your installation?
step 1 – click on create a group button
step 2 – new panel – input group name and group description and click to proceed to next page
step 3 – etc.
