Always show first post - not working Empty Always show first post - not working

Post by Kalliebugg August 12th 2013, 9:26 pm

Hi, I have the box checked off to always show the first post of every thread ... yet it is not working.  Could this be related to the hotskin template I picked -- I seem to be having several issues in that some features I have turned on are not activated.

Thanks,
karen

It could be related to the theme you are using.

Change your theme back to its original default theme first and get it working correctly, then think about using another custom theme. By doing that your forum can revert back to its original theme where everything works right, its gets all your coding back in order. When you switch between custom themes it sometimes leaves behind codes from the previous theme. So revert back to the original and start fresh. Smile

Yeah that should get your forum working the way its supposed to, then you can try other themes if you want to see how they work.

I would let your default theme remain for about 30 minutes before you try another theme so it can get settled. Then press F-5 on your keyboard to refresh the page.

Hi,

Before anything else, have you edited the templates before?

Are you should that you pressed the save button after activating the first message on even page option?

Do you have forum widgets and/or JavaScripts? Try turning them off and checking to see the issue goes away.
