How to unlock from

I haven't used my forum for a long time and now it is "locked". How do I unlock it?

Also, the "log in" option isn't showing. I was able to log in but now the "log in" button is gone.
Is there a place in the admin panel that I inadvertently changed?

Thank you for your assistance!

The forum is elisetestonefans.forumotion.com

Hello,


You can log in there -> https://elisetestonefans.forumotion.com/login

Then check for all your pictures because your hoster (Photobucket) has changed its policy (no more free hosting from them)

What exactly do yuo mean your forum is locked?

where dose it say you forum is locked ?

We never lock a forum that is down to you the founder to do if you no longer want member or post.

So if you never closed your forum down then it's not locked.

if it looks something like this

Then its not locked this is just a icon info (it tells you and your members of the icons for new post locked posts and no new post.

Thanks all for your input. I wasn't aware Photobucket had stopped providing free storage.

Ape, you said the forum show as locked because no new posts are allowed. Maybe at some point, when the forum was really quiet I disable new posts. Where can I enable them again?

Also, the "menu" is gone. That is, as I've said, login, new messages, etc. It seems it is because I had special pics in photobucket. Where can I restore the original theme's menu?

Check this to see if it is set to yes: ACP(Admin Control Panel) --> General --> Forum --> Configuration --> General --> Forum on holiday :

APE meant the locked refers to the forums and sub-forums on your whole forum, not the forum itself.

I'll check if have the forums and sub-forums locked

Thanks for your help!
