Can't post in a forum section?

I for some strange reason cannot post in one of my forum sections that i created, now the permissions are say's

Code:

Posting PermissionsYou may post new threads


You may post replies


You may post attachments


You may edit your posts


BB code is On


Smiles are On


[IMG] code is On


HTML code is Off

I checked the Forum Permissions and no one has been excluded from posting their, I have checked it's parent as well as child forum and everything seems ok but for some reason i still can't post it say's

Quote:

Sorry! This forum is not accepting new posts.
and when i try to move a forum to that section it says
You have tried to move the thread into a forum that cannot contain posts. Please select a different forum.

I think i should also mention the button where it say's Post A New Thread is repeated twice one button at the top and one at the bottom.

That message is the phrase 'forumclosed' and the code in newthread.php is this:

Code:

if (!$foruminfo['allowposting'] OR $foruminfo['link'] OR !$foruminfo['cancontainthreads'])

{

        eval(standard_error(fetch_error('forumclosed')));

}

so if we assume that you have posting permission and the forum can contain threads, that leaves $foruminfo['link']. Did you enter something in forum's "Forum Link" field? (although if you did, that should redirect to the link instead of showng you the forum).

Hi I haven't added anything at all in the Forum Link, I compared the settings with the other forums and are the same.

Oops - when I went back and read your original post again I see you said that when you try to move threads it tells you the forum can't contain posts, so it must have something to do with the value of $foruminfo['cancontainthreads'], but I don't know why that value would be wrong.

Same here it's really weird, I can post in the other forums apart from this one. I know it's not to do with any add-ons because I disabled all of it.

Just to make sure - do you have "Act as Forum" set to "Yes" for that forum? If you do, maybe you could try changing a setting, saving it, then changing it back to make sure it isn't a problem with cached values.

Hey kh99 Thanks so much that sorted the problem, the problem was that I chose "Act as Forum" to No so i set it to Yes and it worked again thanks :).
