No message post in PHPBB3

[sclewin]

Hi,

I have a new install of PHPBB3 and I can't seem to find the add post anywhere. I know I ave privileges to create new threads because it says at the bottom of the page and I logged in as the admin. Is there any help you can give me, or should I try SMF instead; but I do like PHPBB?

Then you are most likely not logged in and guest posts are disabled.

I was admin with full privileges and I tried the general discussion I made that had guest posting allowed. Also, the page said the following:

Forum permissions

You can post new topics in this forum
You can reply to topics in this forum
You can edit your posts in this forum
You can delete your posts in this forum
You can post attachments in this forum

Here is where the forum is http://engarde.elementfx.com/phpbb/

Moved to

Am I suppose to post a message in Scripts & 3rd Party Apps or are you moving it there? If you are moving it there how long does it take?

 

[Christopher]

Sorry. I wasn't able to move posts before for some reason.

A couple of things to check, A) is the forum or thread locked? B) does the image exist to create new post?
Edit:
edit: Currently looking through your source code and the html to have the button IS there, maybe a CSS error, gonna have a look for you
Edit:
Hmmm, not sure but you might try adding this into your css stylesheet at the end

.post-icon {
display:inline ! important;
}

Edit:
With the above proposed solution though there isa problem, this will men any user can ALWAYS see the post new topic button

After you said that it got me thinking about the theme's and how I was going through them. So, I switched to the other theme and there was the buttons to add a new post and it now works. Thanks. I just now wounder where did the buttons go in the other theme.

if you really wanted that theme you ncould just redownload it to get the buttons and put them ino your theme folder

Its not that important to me now that I have a working theme, but it would be nice to give the users a choice. So, when I have time I may try re-downloading the theme.

I would also like to find other themes, but when I looked on the PHPBB sire they only had version 2 themes that I could see.

For some reason the forum style is now working. I did not do anything and it works really nice. If anybody else did anything, thanks.
