I am actually having the same problem. I was trying to help a friend with it, and had no luck. I'm thinking there's a "show forums" setting somewhere that nobody noticed yet... or something stupid like that. There's no way it would have made it out of beta testing if it worked this badly.

Anyway, weird, try posting on their dev forums.

Just stick with phpBB2 until they come up with at least a RC for phpBB3. That way, you might get some support.
