    Hi, I am the Admin of the above forum. I have either gotten really stupid, or something is missing where we can post to this forum. I would like to resurrect this forum which hasn't been used for a couple of years. Has the ability to post to this forum been withdrawn?

    I am not the original creator/owner, but have Admin functions transferred to me and, in the past I used that functionality quite a bit.

    Please look at the forum https://pensacoladaily.forumotion.com/ and tell this dummy how to make a post. I don't see any place where I can initiate a post. I have looked at the forum in my normal user login and in my Admin login, but can't seem to figure out what's wrong... or what's wrong with me, lol

    I'll be happy to make and needed changes in the Administration Panel that are needed.

    That seemed like a good idea, but Holidays was checked No. Also, it wasn't set for construction. And I can reply to posts and a user saw my reply and started a new topic... something I cannot seem to do. There are no New Topic Buttons and only a sliver of a reply box at the bottom.

    Please look to see if you have a image for your post buttons here.


    Admin Control Panel settings
    ACP >> Display tab >>
    Down the left and side >> Pictures and Colors >> Pics management >> Advanced Mode.
    Click the buttons tab and you will see
    Forum was inactive, can't seem to get where we can use it again Captu223
    make sure you have an image there if it's photobucket or tinypic you will need to change the button to something else as we no longer support the two image hosts.

    I am using Chrome 80.0.3987.116, but I tried Firefox and Edge with the same results. Emptying cache didn't help, but I haven't done anything maintenance-wise for a long time and the tinypic/photobucket images may be the problem. Funny, one user logged in and started a new post. Heck, I can't even do that. I inquired how he did it, but he hasn't responded. I just wanted to know if he saw stuff I couldn't see.

    I see the captu223.png stuff and will work on getting them implemented. I will let you know how things work out. I appreciate your help.

    Can you check what Ape pointed out to see if there is an image for 'New Topic' in the Admin Panel?

    The topic starter stated that another member started a topic so there must be an image for it.

    I thought the topic starter meant the topic was started recently.
