    No message post in PHPBB3

    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?

    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:

    Re: No message post in PHPBB3

    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

    Code:
    .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.

    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.
