Hi everyone. I'm having an issue where when you post a new discussion it just sits there idle and doesn't transition to confirmed screen.

So users don't know their post has been submitted and keep clicking submit, creating multiple submissions.

My forum is: http://petsitterbible.com/forum/

I created a test user account if you'd like to try it.

username: testuser

password: test

thanks!

  • Ok I had a look.

    Yep seems to be a big issue.

    First off, you are using html5 tags such as < nav> and < section> but your doctype isnt html5

    Change doctype to < !DOCTYPE html>
    You also have quite a few errors on page

  • Thanks. I really need to hire someone to do a little work on it I can't figure all this on my own, thanks for your help. lll

  • the errors are quite easy to fix, just work your way thru them one at a time. My gess is its oneof your plugins, disable them all then test again
