Upgraded and EVERYTHING is great But..... I need a little advice as somethings not right!

Lukes

Hi guys, (first Post) im having a little trouble with my forum, on the discussions page the options cogwheel that appears on hovering over posts isnt interactive for me and also the quick links beneath the users avatar like message , settings etc is also showing links but is not clickable? am i missing something silly? the install is at http://www.thebukkitlist.com/forums.php i have no other code on the page and followed the install info explicitly to the letter, i really hope someone can shed light on this as this truly is the most awesome forum software i have ever come across!

probably you should use the bittersweet theme to test and see if your js is loaded and working. do you have js errors in your console.

then follow these steps.

don;t use the minify plugin ever, never it just creates problems.

you also have jquery 1.10

also you have an error.

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at ws://s78.chatango.com:1800/.

you've also got two versions of jquery running.

Hi, the first thing you need to check is that you have all the permissions as admin to do these things.

make sure if you are admin to give yourself all permissions.

You reach that in the dashboard left panel under roles and permissions. Select the role you want to manage and edit. Do not delete the default roles.

Also, why does the forum address use the extension php ? that is not right the forum is either in a root folder or called forum in a subdirectory and the index is php but should not be forum.php Is this embedded ? Is that why you named it php ?

Thanks for the super quick reply! Ok i have ticked every available Box in the Adminstrator category and checked i am indeed admin cleared all the cache and restarted browser but its still the same, even without perms the links below the main avatar should work shouldnt they? this is the element thats not working for some reason: <span class="ToggleFlyout OptionsMenu" starting to pull my hair out now because i cant even delete posts xD

you failed to mention your version number as suggested in the message prior to posting , so we can only guess.
