mike20021969 Posted February 3, 2016 Report Posted February 3, 2016 Since the forum update, it appears some threads cannot be replied too e.g.: https://forum.utorrent.com/topic/88339-34x-beta/ https://forum.utorrent.com/topic/88607-34x-stable/ Anyone else seeing this? (I am able to Start new topics though). Edit - after submitting this topic, I noticed I would be able to reply to this thread.
mike20021969 Posted February 5, 2016 Author Report Posted February 5, 2016 Any news on why some threads won't show the reply box? Is anyone who operates this forum software aware of this or know if a fix is planned?
DreadWingKnight Posted February 5, 2016 Report Posted February 5, 2016 The reply box is still showing fine for me. You have screenshots?
mike20021969 Posted February 5, 2016 Author Report Posted February 5, 2016 Here's a screen shot of the uTorrent beta thread - note there's no reply box and there's no quote option on the post entry either. It's showing same on my tablet aswell: Although not showing, I am logged into the forum on both screen shots. Maybe it's a "permissions thing" for ordinary (i.e. not Admins/Mods) users - can post on some forums and not others?
rafi Posted February 6, 2016 Report Posted February 6, 2016 Same here Seems to be only for some forums - Beta/Stable
rafi Posted February 6, 2016 Report Posted February 6, 2016 Are you, guys, getting email notifications for threads?

mike20021969 Posted February 6, 2016 Author Report Posted February 6, 2016 Whatever the reason why we cannot add replies to the beta and stable threads, it must be an ordinary user "permissions thing" as the same problem is showing on your bittorrent forum too - that has also been updated. (So if the problem is fixed here, it needs to be fixed there too).
mike20021969 Posted February 9, 2016 Author Report Posted February 9, 2016 Hmmm... still no reply box on the beta or stable threads in the Announcements forum. Forgetting the Locked or Archive threads (which most are), it looks like ordinary users are not permitted to reply to ANY remaining open thread in the Announcements forum. The Start new topic is active and working though.
DreadWingKnight Posted February 29, 2016 Report Posted February 29, 2016 I'm fixing forum posting permissions now.

Next time (/forum) please plan ahead your forum's settings appropriately... Oh, and we want our signatures back too!!!
DreadWingKnight Posted March 1, 2016 Report Posted March 1, 2016 Kinda hard to plan under what situations where someone who doesn't know what the permissions are supposed to be is put in charge of a database restore. Also, signatures are now back on.
schnurlos Posted March 1, 2016 Report Posted March 1, 2016 Still the edit function is not working for mods.
