Inline mod disappeared

They can't be red if just created with no parent. Even modifications that use templates will revert to their default unedited status.

So just to confirm, you went to Admin CP ? Styles & Templates ? Style Manager ? [Add New Style] and created a new style with No Parent Style? And your new style has edited templates?

So, out of my paranoia, I went and installed another vB. In this vB, I loaded a backup of the settings and guess what? The inline wasn't there. But in the default settings, it is!

What in the settings could disable the inline? I've looked over them, but all I tried didn't worked..

I'm not sure what you mean by this statement.

You have given your mods permission to move threads or delete threads and such, right? And, you actually added them as mods of a forum and that is the forum you are looking at, right? Cuz if you look at a forum they aren't a mod in, then you won't see any inline moderation checkboxes.

Digital Jedi, I installed a brand new vB. The inline mod was there as expected. Then, I uploaded the settings configurations and it disappeared. After that, I tested a little and confirmed that something in the settings is disabling the inline, but I can't figure what.

Lynne, it's a brand new forum, there are no mods assigned. The only account is the admin and it doesn't has a forum.

Thanks for the help so far.

Well, after A LOT of trial and error, I found what it was...

ACP, Settings, Style & Language Settings, Use 'vBMenu' DHTML Popup Menus?

It has to be "Yes" for Inline to appear...

Thank you very much for your help, I couldn't have done it without you guys.

Happy new year!


Now if you'll excuse, I'll just go hang myself or something

[Lynne]

Please don't hang yourself!

Weird that that option was the problem. If I turn it off on my forum, I still see the inline moderation boxes. :/

[Digital Jedi]

Must be plugin, I would think. Something tweaking the HTML code right around that area. You shouldn't need DHTML menus on to access the moderation panel.

[Martini-man]

The hang part was a joke Lynne, but I appreciate your concern for my well being :P

The moderation options were all there, except the inline dropdown button. I also tried it on the new vB I had just installed and even without any modifications, just by turning the DHTML off the Inline disappeared.

Also found it weird, but hey, it happens.


Glad we could learn something from this experience. Happy new year people

DHTML is required for inline moderation, had you mentioned that sooner we could have said something
