On meta in response to a new user's first bug report, I prefer to be more friendly.

  • Update: the 500 error is now fixed; if you pull the Qpixel `develop` branch you'll pick this up. See below for a workaround in the meantime. (The seeding problem that caused the 500 error isn't fixed; that's a deeper issue.)

  • Thanks for reporting this bug.
  • Could you check the category settings ("Edit Category" at the top of the list, for admins) and see if the category has a tag set? There's a menu there with (by default) options for Main and Meta. Each category has to know what tag set to use in order to render that page. I know that at one time there was a bug in seeding that; I thought we'd fixed that, but maybe not. [I've submitted a pull request to handle the 500 error.](https://github.com/codidact/qpixel/pull/1330) Meanwhile, you can fix it in your instance:
  • ![screenshot of settings with Tag Set circled](https://meta.codidact.com/uploads/p7rajl5mayx2j1y2i0fwi57yjkbg)
  • The URL path for the settings page is `categories/#/edit`, where `#` is the category number (probably 1 for Q&A on a new instance).
