Okay. It's strange that that happened, though. What version did you have before upgrading to 2.1.2?
It was 2.1.1, I believe. I don't think it was ever installed properly, probably something I did, because some of the features like the "Books" never did work.
OK, before I reinstall, I see that vBulletin has come out with an update. Just to add to the problem. Should I install the vBulletin update before I reinstall the wiki? I would like to do this right this time. :rolleyes:
It's usually a good idea to keep vBulletin up to date first.
Go to the article that you want as a chapter. Go to the Book tab, and select the Book you want to add it to.
When you go to Special:Books, how many are listed?
The tabs that are across the top of the article are:
article discussion edit history protect move delete watch
The buttons in the pull down menu on the top in the forum menu are:
LAD Wiki (list)
Post New Article
Special Pages
Books
Recent Changes
In the CES Vault Wiki in the Admin CP, I have the book set to appear:

Your wiki is not set up correctly. You have somehow managed to get a number of namespaces to be nested inside of each other.
It's likely on your most recent install you fell victim to the issue described (and solved) here: https://www.vaultwiki.org/showthread.php?t=1585, and you just didn't notice some of the items in the instructions were missing.
When you're done with that you will have to fix your namespace settings in the manager and possibly move some of your articles around.
OK, I am getting extremely frustrated by this. I do not know how to do queries and no nothing about databases. I just want this to work and it seems that I am getting nowhere.
Can you give more information than you are, as these one or two sentence response are doing nothing to get this problem solved?
Oh I didn't realize you were the same user from that thread. Sorry for the added confusion there.
First make sure that the Book namespace is correct, because it is possible that the forums were set up wrong in your earlier install, and you are attempting to use the same forums. I'm a bit confused myself as to why the Namespace Manager would allow you to do this, but it looks like it happened.
Check the Top-Level Forum for the Book namespace. Make sure it is not the same as the Top-Level Forum for the LAD Wiki namespace. If it is (and I don't know how this is even possible), in the Forum Manager, make sure your "Book" forum has Parent Forum = "No One." Then change the Book namespace's Top-Level Forum to "Book" rather than "LAD Wiki."
Now your namespaces are correct. If the Book tab still does not appear in your articles, you might have to click "Rebuild" next to the Book namespace in the Namespace Manager.
If this is too confusing for you, feel free to PM me regarding doing it for you.
