We've reinstalled several times and we keep getting the same issue. We click a forum or sub-forum, and we get this issue below:

Page Not Found
Looks like the page you're looking for isn't here anymore. Try browsing the categories, archives, or using the search box below.

Warning: include(/home/khsocial/public_html/wp-content/themes/BarzRusTV/searhform.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/khsocial/public_html/wp-content/themes/BarzRusTV/404.php on line 11

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening '/home/khsocial/public_html/wp-content/themes/BarzRusTV/searhform.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/khsocial/public_html/wp-content/themes/BarzRusTV/404.php on line 11

If you wanna try it yourself just click any of the forums at www.BarzRusTV.co.uk/forum and see for yourself.

Anyone know what to do?
 
It is looking for the templates inside your wordpress theme for some reason.

How would one go about fixing this?
 
Flux, do you have any SEO plugin installed? By the looks of it, your trying to view it like forum-3.html, if you previously had it installed, did you change any settings back to the default ones?
 
List of plugins please? Also, can you double check your database information in /inc/config.php?
 
Do you two mean MyBB plugins? Or WordPress plugins?
 
MyBB Plugins

It does look like a SEO plugin of some sort that is missing the htaccess modifications.

We have no plugins installed for the forum.

You are using a page called forum to link to the forum?
Ah! That would be it!

EDIT: apparently it's something to do with the htaccess. Anyone?
 
Fowler said:
Either rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess or disable search engine friendly URL's.
Sorry for the annoying noobie questions but I'm fairly new to the technical aspect of things; how would I go about doing this?

Are you looking in the /forum directory? There should be a file called htaccess.txt and there shouldn't already be an htaccess file in that directory.

The contents of the htaccess file in the /forum directory should be as follows. I was able to reproduce the same problem as you without an htaccess file but when I renamed the htaccess.txt file with the below code, it solve the error.
Code:
Options -MultiViews +FollowSymlinks -Indexes

No, that was just in the public_html directory, I was being stupid. In the /forum directory I have .htaccess and .htaccess12162012.

I don't see what the problem could be then. It should be working... Unless I am missing something obvious.

The wordpress error message is due to a missing template file although that should not be causing this MyBB error.

Hmm, okay. Thanks for all of your help, I really don't know what to do 🙁
 
An easy fix (atleast for the time being) would be to disable the search engine friendly urls in the acp. That should immediately stop the error.
