Something that drives me crazy that I finally think I should report it. On the Portal it says Portail and it should say Portal. It's not the Image. It's the words.

Administration Panel
Under General -> Forum -> Categories and forums -> Permissions
In advanced mode, there's a category where it says "Join File".
It's not a grammar error, but it's very wierd.
It can be changed to "Create Attachment" or anything easier to understand.

Re: Grammar Errors
Greek Translation Mistaken:
When you log in to the AP the tab text (near the favicon) it says: "Καλός ήρθατε στον Πίνακα Διαχείρηση"
["Καλός ήρθατε στον Πίνακα Διαχείρηση" this is mistaken !]
It has to be written like that "Καλώς ήρθατε στον Πίνακα Διαχείρηση"

Actually e-mail now-a-days is incorrect. AP officially changed it to "email".

I think it should be "The Forum of the Forums"
'cause it's only referring to the Forumotion forum.

Please note that only English translations are being done and that there is a low chance of other languages being fixed due to a limited amount of translators.

Found a spelling error in the BB code FAQ.
Here's a screenshot:

Lign should be line. It is misspelled twice in these instances:
Insert a lign
If you wish to aerate your message by inserting ligns
Also, shouldn't aerate be seperate? Would make a LOT more sense.

You may post a thread regarding your problem in another forum, if you don't find a place to post your problem in post it in the Other Problems forum, I may help out, you must create a group and have specific members be a part of the group then set the correct permissions, post your questions in threads and I will help out, this is not the place for questions but this threads is for other reasons.
