Like I've said bless you for all these answers. Could I also ask how to delete forum categories after they've been created?

Hey thanks again for your help. One last question. While setting up the admin for the data base using this command: bin/console app:user:add admin1 --admin I get the following error:

There are no commands defined in the "app:user" namespace.

Did you mean one of these?

app

app:theme

Thanks! I had to make the media/cache folder myself and gave it ownership to www-data and no more errors!

That fixed it! I'm assuming it also explains why posting links lead to a 500 error. Which folder handles sharing of links?

Thanks!

The postmill_error.log is empty which is a little confusing as a 500 error also appears when posting links. The links get posted but it shows a 500 error instead of returning to the post.

Thanks! I fixed the issue by just using nginx instead of apache. While trying to upload images I get a 500 server internal error, and I'm not sure where to begin fixing this.

Where are pictures saved too?
