Thanx for this mod all works.....same as above tho ..altho it works with no errors i get
forums > error << in the breadcrumb .... but creates the topic correctily

Couple of suggestions if u want for next version:

For descriptions... have increase size of box function aswell as ability to use bbcode or html for the text.

Thanks ..marked as installed

Ok after goin more into it...Errors:

When deleting a question it says form doesnt exist.... when refresh the question actually has gone.
Same with when editing a question..
Still works just gives u the error message...as i say when refreh the edit or deletion does work
