As admin, I can submit a link and select a parent forum and the link will be posted to the forum ... but when I login as a normal member and try this, it doesn't post to the forum. The member has permission to post to the forum and I have the category set so that it has a parent forum, but no go... do you know what I could be doing wrong? I'd like to have it so that when a member submits a link it autocreates a thread in just one forum. I just can't work out why it isn't working.

Also, I guess there's no way to have the link back from the linkbit to the thread to not use the bbcode and use a link instead. I have not allowed bbcode and it shows as [ thread=14196 ]Discussion Thread[ / thread ] in the linkbit.

I hope that all made sense.

Thanks again for a great addon.

Cheers

Clancy

Just a quick check - have you got moderation turned on for your forums? If so, the thread creation is delayed until the moderator accepts the entry.

For your second question, try editing the ldm_thread_create_relink and ldm_thread_create_body phrases. By default, these read:

====


[thread={2}]Discussion Thread[/thread]

====

A new entry has been added to {4}

Description: {2}

To check it out, rate it or add comments, visit [ url = {3} ]{1}[ / url]
The comments you make there will appear in the posts below.

But if you don't allow bbcodes, you presumably also don't allow html, so a direct link won't work either? Am I missing something
