Forum with extra permissions redirects to non-existant page

Hi, I just had the forum imported from vBulletin and was setting some permissions.  There is one forum called ASK JACK that has the following settings:

Guest => No Access

Members => Read Only

Bronze Klub => Read Only

Silver & Gold Klub => Standard Access

 

When I login as a test user with Bronze, Silver or Gold access it redirects from jackkruse.com/forum-2/ask-jack to jackkruse.com/ask-jack.  That page doesn't exist.

If I click on a specific post like http://www.jackkruse.com/forum.....ught-bomb/ it will show the text.  This is better because it is not redirecting the user to a non-existant page. But if I delete the URL back to just the /forum-2/ask-jack/ it will then redirect again.

As far as I can tell all the other forums, which don't use any special permissions, are working as expected.

Any ideas how to resolve this?

To add some additional info...

If I visit a page for a page number: http://www.screencast.com/t/XmSdcYesO

http://www.jackkruse.com/forum...../page-145/

it works as expected.

Just the root page for the /ask-jack/ redirects.  

Stumped.

 

Thanks again for the help!

Do you by any chance have a WP post or a WP page with a slug of 'ask-jack'? I would expect that to be loaded if you did but it's a good opening question...

May as well ask also if you have any redirection plugins active or the Yoast SEO plugin while here...
