Hi,
When I use "&" letter in the forum category (ex:"Q&A") . The category name turn to before "&" letter (ex:Q).
And I can't edit and delete that. Error message is "Delete category failed!" or "Edit category failed!".

(menu path:manage -> Manage Forum -> + Add Category)

Hi, shirayuki
Thx!
I find some case It can delete. But It is not anycase. I want
1. Support "&" or restrict it.
2. Delete them

Hi mahsaito and shirayuki:
It's a bug and we will fix it later.
If you want to use & now, you can do the following steps
1) Go to Manage Forum page
2) Change Categories to Tags mode, now your forum support tags, not categories.
3) Go to the forum, make a post with "Q&A" tags
4) Go to Manage Forum page and Change it from Tags to Categories.

Then, you can use Q&A category.
