I installed my forum from fantasico and it looks great but it does not give me the option to post new threads.

You have to log into the admin and adjust forum permissions.. then you can ad posts.

i have logged into admin and gone into forum permissions and adjusted the settings but still the "New Tread" icon does not appear under or above the forum topic. What good is a forum if i can't post new threads, lol!

Well without logging in there.. all i can tell you definitavely is that you have to go to each forum/section and set the permissions for each one. You also have to set up users.. and what they have permission to do..like post to threads.

Re: Forum wont display posts

I have assigned user permissions and and done what you told me to do but i for some reason i still cannot post new threads on my forum.

I don't want to delete the forum completely and start adding new topics all over again.

Well I just went and signed up to see if I could post. The button is there, but it's hidden for some reason. Mouse over the page just above the bar and you should get a text pop up of the button. I made a post which is awaiting moderation so you can see if that all works.

Good luck.

Re: Forum wont display posts

hey its good that that the "NEW THREAD" button is there but i cannot find it even hovering over with my mouse. You say it is just above the bar i still cannot find any pop up menu. Is it on the left or right of the page?

Even though you say that the button is hidden, is there any way i can make it visible?

Try changing the template you are using to one of the default ones, if you can see the button to post a thread then you know your permissions are right and that there is just something wrong with the template you installed (and on that note, perhaps you didn't upload the images to the correct directory)

Re: Forum wont display posts

yes i changed the template and the new thread button shows up, thanks for that. But i prefer to keep the template i already had so its a shame the button wont show.

Re: Forum display posts

Try reinstalling the template, I doubt someone released a template with that big of a bug, its pretty hard to miss something like missing new thread buttons. I just suggested switching to a default to try to rule out reasons why its not working.
