    Solved iPad users cannot create threads!?

    Post by Edward Kenway December 25th 2014, 4:10 pm

    Since lots of my guild mates play with their iPads (App game guild) its essential that they can create threads with their iPads.

    please help me with this:oops:



    When testing with my iPad, (with another account. a ''test account'', Not ADMIN) i can reply to threads, but I cannot create one of my own.

    When i click ''send'' the page loads, and then I'm back at the edit/create thread page, as If i didn't press ''send'' in the first place.
    It's like the page is just reloading, and not posting the actual thread. 


    Please note! 
    I tried logging in to my ''test account'' on a PC, i could post a thread without any problems, so the issue is only on iPads (maybe iPhone as well, haven't tried but i think they work the same)

    once again to clarify. When iPad users are trying to create a new thread, it doesn't work.

    forum link is: http://blackflag.f-orum.com

    Thx for your replies!

    iPad users can reply, but not create own threads.

    Is this in a certain section or whole forum?

    I tried making threads in other forum sections, but it didn't work. I can always reply to existing thread, but not create one of my own on the iPad. 
    I checked also in the admin panel so that the forum section wasn't locked or anything like that, and the permissions. 

    Everything is working as intended on the PC, when in the iPad, a member cannot create any threads, only reply to them.

    This is what happens. When on the iPad, i enter a forum category, after that I click ''New Topic'', i get to the edit page (as usual)
    but when I click ''send'', instead of creating the thread, it goes back to the same edit page. Screenshots below.

    Clicked ''send'', the page updates, and then i'm back at this edit screen/page again. It doesn't create the new thread.

    I'm using my iPad and I can create a topic. Maybe you need to make the title longer, at least 10 letters perhaps.

    Read my mind Razz

    However, it usually shows an error message.

    Anyway, what is the minimum topic title length on your forum ?
    General > Messages and e-mails > Configuration

    Scroll down to the "Topics" category to check "Topics title length" :
