I'm getting this on bottom..

Uncached templates: cyb_preventnewthread_search1 (1)
Uncached templates: cyb_preventnewthread_search2 (1)

Any way to modify so the templates are being cached?

Thanks..

[Valter]

Ups..... fixed.

Please re-download attachment and re-upload XML.

looks very good !

May I have a feature request?

I wish to have excluded some forums from forum list. I think it would be good to include in forum settings wheter they appear on forum-drop-down listo for newbies.
(do not really want to use per usegroup permission, but that will be also the way...)

It?s only in firefox, ie is working!

Any idea?

same problem with firefox 1.5x here

No problem with IE no problem with firefox 1.0.7
Might be problem AJAX related?

I think that form should start with empty forum category, because currently newbies do not open rollout menu, but just proceed and they post in whatever forum they currently are...

---------------------

plus still the problem with FIREFOX!!!
