When you click on challenges does it take you to:
yourwebsite.com/browse.php?type=challenges

If if doesn't then you need to edit it in Admin->Panels
Look for Challenges click Edit
In the URL to Panel spot make sure it reads:
modules/challenges/browse.php

hi, barb. when i clicked on the 'challenges' link, it takes me to http://castrofics.com/modules/challenges/challenges.php
i did as suggested and followed your steps and everything is right at the admin level. i don't know why it's not working. anything else i'm missing?

This may seem like a silly question but you've installed the challenges module right?

If I go here:

http://castrofics.com/browse.php?type=challenges

I see the challenges page.

i just changed the link and the page still didn't show up. i'm going to change the link directly on the skin now. hopefully, that will work.

I told you incorrectly... let's try again:

Log in as Admin
Click on Page Links
Look for Challenges and click the Edit link next to it

Where it says LINK URL: (make sure it says): browse.php?type=challenges

(before I think I had you add "modules" that was my bad I should have looked at my settings like this):

barb, i just did that. the page is still mia. however, when i go to page links and click on 'challenges' the page appeared. it just didn't appear when i clicked the challenge link on the main page. in fact, when i clicked on the challenge link on the main page, the address shown is http://castrofics.com/modules/challenges/challenges.php and not http://castrofics.com/browse.php?type=challenges i just checked the skin and nowhere can i change the url associated with these links. help!

i did it! i did it! yay! and you would not believe how i did. i just uninstall and reinstall the challenges modules. so, here's a tip for everyone. when you can't figure it out what to do next, just uninstall and reinstall.
