Topic: Punportal- Error: Unable to fetch the recent topics.

Gah !
Help a beginner out.
I removed the miniportal mods I did originally, and followed the instruction for the Punportal mod to the letter.
I was configuring it, and refreshed my page, and received this message


An error was encountered
Error: Unable to fetch the recent topics.

Any attempt to access the forum now shows the same message


Now - I did enable the recent topics block, but did not tell it which forum to draw from. Is that why I am getting this ?
How to fix ?

I did notice that the portal mod calls to change all occasions of index.php to forums.php (and that there is no "forums.php", rather "forum.php") Well, changing this did not work either.
