OK, I recently did some modifications to replacement variables, and I pretty much wiped my postbit clean and redid it completely... I think that's about all I did since this started happening though.

for some reason, my PMs dont work at all now. When you enter a username to send it to and enter the PM, two things will happen (depending on whether or not i hit preview or submit)

Preview basically just refreshes the page; nothing happens
Submit gives the following:
Please complete both the subject and message fields. Press the back button, correct the problem and try again
It also makes the first letter of the person's name a lowercase letter after I do that, keeps the title, and wipes out the body of the message.

Strangely, when I click my reply button I made on my postbit.. it works fine... but any other method doesn't.



These are my controls:


<!-- controls -->
<if condition="$post['editlink']">
<a href="$post[editlink]"><img src="images/buttons/edit.gif" alt="$vbphrase[edit_delete_message]" border="0" /></a>
</if>

<if condition="$post['replylink']">
<a href="$post[replylink]"><img src="images/buttons/<if condition="$post['forwardlink']">quickreply<else />quote</if>.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply_with_quote]" border="0" /></a>
</if>
<if condition="$SHOWQUICKREPLY AND !$show['threadedmode']">
<a href="$post[replylink]" onclick="return qr($post[postid]);"><img src="images/buttons/quickreply.gif" alt="$vbphrase[quick_reply_to_this_message]" border="0" /></a>
</if>
<!-- / controls -->

It's from the default (running 3.0.3 btw) postbit, and it seems to work.. that's also the only template I've changed, so I don't see why its working there and not here.

And I just now noticed, it's only happening to me, lol.. everyone else can send PMs through fine, to me or to other people. Tested it with every user group.

If I go to reply to one (with a quote), it only sends the text from the quote through and nothing else lol >.< this is so weird. Anyone have any ideas?

A fellow Admin playing a joke with you?

PS problem is probably not with a template, but with a recent file edit.

lol, I'm the only administrator on my forums. What file would it probably be? I mean, I guess I could make a 2nd account for PMs.. but that'd be kinda.. troublesome, I'm a lazy person after all :D
