Mods? I have the Recommendations module, Story End module, and Beta Reader search mods from Tammy's site installed. Also this mod by jrabbit is installed: https://efiction.org/forums/index.php?topic=4743.0
I don't know if these problems were there before I upgraded from 3.1.1 or not but I'm pretty sure they weren't.
Drop down menus not working. If you go to the categories page and try to use any of the dropdown menus to narrow results it just returns a blank page. When I browse challenges it works. If I try to use the drop down menus on the most recent, or browse categories page it just returns a black page. None of the dropdown menus work even when I know there should be results.

I'm still having problems with the drop downs. I ran some tests.
http://fanforge.net/browse.php?type=categories&id=4
Characters are not filled out at all. So I cannot test them. (It does have characters, they are just not populated, this is a different error/bug)
When sorting by any Age Rating it takes me to a new category page with no results. It retained the sorting. I tried them again at that new page and the 'series' listing went away, odd. no other changes found. By blank i mean it did not give 'no results found'.
When sorting by Genre, it gives me that new blank category page again. Sorting in that new window changes nothing. I tried more terms in the original listing and it still gives me that new blank category page.
I tried the classifications like style and type, warnings etc. (offtopic, but 'type' is defined by {type_type} in the code) they all give me that blank page. No change if I hammer at it in the new page. Hard to say if the new page retains any data from the original.
Ok Trying under Character Aoi Senou. All of the sort worked correctly. This is odd. So it works under a character, but not under a category. Oh, the character drop down is still not populated.

Itanshi, either your main browse.php file or the browse/categories.php file didn't upload when you updated to 3.2.1
Correction, ok some of it is working now,
Ok I think i may have left off the browse folder in the update, thanks for the reply.
FYI Still no populated characters.

Then start a new bug report. I will not answer new bugs posted to an existing thread. Sorry if that seems mean, but it's how I preserve my sanity in trying to keep track of things.
3.2.1 seems to have taken care of that one tammy 😀
working fine for me now
