I installed an update so had to close SABnzbd. When I tried to re-open it, it only re-opened via the terminal. When I closed the terminal after opening SAB, it (SAB) closed. What am I missing?

In terminal type this
/Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/MacOS/SABnzbd --server localhost:8080

This is what I copied into the terminal to open SAB: /Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/MacOS/SABnzbd --console -s 0.0.0.0:8080 -b1
and it worked. However, when I closed (terminated) the terminal, it closed SAB. When I copied in what you told me...yes, worked as well; until i closed the terminal.

You need to launch it in daemon mode: ‘--daemon’

Can you remove that console option and try again?

It’s the bit of your command string that says ‘--console’. ;)

Please ensure you prefix ‘daemon’ with a whitespace character and 2 x hyphens.
