Solved Cannot change forum title

I believe this one is clear. When I edit field with old name, and press Send, it says changes have been made, however I still see the old name.

It WORKED! However, I have another problem. Somehow, I've changed the line when registering to say: "I agree with this conditions and am older than or exactly 13" instead of just "I agree with this conditions".

Any idea how to fix it?

If this is in the rules you agree to at the start, you may have added an additional rule.

Go to "General => Additional Rules" and you will hopefully be able to edit in there.

I indeed have additional rules that define how forums work, however, I fail to find place for defining that 13 age limit.

Actually, it's a link. Here, let me show you.

Cannot change forum title Iy0fa9

The link underlined red says

"I agree with these conditions and I'm older than or exacty 13."

The link underlined green says

"I disagree with these conditions."

I wonder if that's been changed with a script hmmm.

If it's been changed with a script you will find it either in: "Modules => javascript codes management"

Or it's possibly in your homepage message "Display => Generalities"

The element is a.button1, but you probably just want to edit the text rather than remove the whole script.

True, just the text. I don't think it's been changed with script however, because I've been running this forum in 2007, and it had this text. I will try what you said.

Okay, I can confirm it's forumotion's code:

<a class="genmed" href="{U_AGREE_OVER13}">{AGREE_OVER_13}</a><br />
<br />
<a class="genmed" href="{U_INDEX}">{DO_NOT_AGREE}</a>

so... just to leave AGREE?

If it's forumotion's code that will make it a little harder to change it, since we don't have access to the HTML. What forum version are you using?

I have a phpbb3 forum and it just says agree Sad

We could possibly be able to change it with a script, or possibly even a theme update. As I don't use phpbb3 I'm not entirely sure if that text is standard? If you give me your forum address I will have a look and see if I can do anything.

To view the html, you can right-click and select view source, or press ctrl+u

Ahhh I follow now. OK, phpbb2 is a new one for me.

You could try <a class="genmed" href="/register?agreed=true&step=2">I agree</a><br />
