      I agree that it would be more intuitive to have an "Add Chapter" button within the Book page itself though. Please post a feature request in the tracker.

      I'd already read that. It's written wrong or something. I'll try to find out what I am not getting my head around. I think you can only add a new chapter by adding a new article and making it a chapter. That's awkward. Sorry I can't pinpoint what is making this so hard for me. It's just not what I expected.

      It needs pictures to clarify, but yes, I agree it's awkward. There should be a mechanism similar to the "Add to New Book" option on the Book tab.

      Simple things should be simple.

      Basic usability issue here.
      I am looking at a book.
      I click add chapter.
      And vaultwiki asks me .. add a chapter to which book ?
      Answer: the one I am looking at !

      It isn't asking you what book to add the chapter to, it will always be added to the current book. It is asking what sub-forum the chapter will be in.

      I can't imagine why that would have to be set.

      If you don't set a forum, then forum permissions can't be used for the article. Since articles are saved as threads, you need forum permissions.
