I have been using quick mod tools on a test phpbb3 forum without an issue. Can you give any more details of the error? e.g. exactly what quick mod tool option you are using and exactly at what point the error occurs? Also does it occur in a standard template? _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums

They always worked fine in my other template but I have just started to use this one today and when I am in a topic and I use the quick mod tool to delete, move, lock a topic, it lets me get as far as the "are you sure you want to delete this topic" then when I click yes I get this error "General Error not allowed as quickmod Please notify the board administrator or webmaster: steph*****@yahoo.com" It will let me make these changes if I go in "edit" just not from quick mod tools

What is the base template? maybe it is out of date. _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums

subSilver2 is up to date and does work. Similar issues have been reported with phpbb3.04 though, so it may be a bug. _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums

Just to let you know that announcement portal causes the same problem and we cannot delete PM's when I try to everything seems fine till I come back to my inbox and it is still there. Could all these issues be related?

So we are talking about portals causing issues. Annoying but we can deal with it. _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums

Sorry I have found another issue, if I try to delete another users post I get this "Sorry but you can only delete your own posts" and I am logged in as the admin. I would post this in another thread but I am wondering if its all related as I have never had these problems before

Regarding the login portal, have you edited any of it or are you just using what was default? because the original code is for bb2 and will no doubt cause greif, if you are using the default login portal, may I suggest using this code instead:

Code:

<form method="post" action="{S_LOGIN_ACTION}">

<table class="tablebg" width="100%" cellspacing="1">
<tr>
   <th class="thCornerL" ><a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a></th>
</tr>
<tr>
   <td class="row1" align="center"><span class="genmed">{L_USERNAME}:</span> <input class="post" type="text" name="username" size="10" /><br /><span class="genmed">{L_PASSWORD}:</span> <input class="post" type="password" name="password" size="10" /><br /> <span class="gensmall">{L_LOG_ME_IN}</span> <input type="checkbox" class="radio" name="autologin" /><br /><input type="submit" class="btnmain" name="login" value="{L_LOGIN}" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
{S_FORM_TOKEN}
</form>

<table width="100%" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0" class="tablebg" align="center">
   <tr>
   <th colspan="1" width="150" height="25" class="thCornerL" nowrap="nowrap">Welcome</th>
   </tr>
  <tr>
   <td class="row1" style="text-align: left;">
   Welcome to the forum <br />
   <br />
   
      <a href="{U_PRIVATEMSGS}">{PRIVATE_MESSAGE_INFO}</a>
      <br />{PRIVATE_MESSAGE_INFO_UNREAD}
   
   <br />
   
      <br />• <a href="{U_SEARCH_NEW}">{L_SEARCH_NEW}</a>
      <br />• <a href="{U_SEARCH_UNANSWERED}">{L_SEARCH_UNANSWERED}</a>
      <br />• <a href="{U_SEARCH_ACTIVE_TOPICS}">{L_SEARCH_ACTIVE_TOPICS}</a>
      <br />• <a href="{U_SEARCH_SELF}">{L_SEARCH_SELF}</a>
   
   
      <br />• <a href="{U_RESTORE_PERMISSIONS}">{L_RESTORE_PERMISSIONS}</a>
   
<strong>       <br />• <a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" class="left-box {S_CONTENT_FLOW_BEGIN}" title="{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}">{L_LOGOUT}</a></strong>
</td>
  </tr>
</table>

Thanks Nick I have updated that and it has changed the login portal and it looks great. I am still having problems when trying to use the quick mod tool though, I still get "General Error not allowed as quickmod Please notify the board administrator or webmaster: steph*****@yahoo.com" I also am not able to delete any Pm's when I try everything seems ot work fine (with no error messages) but when I return to my inbox the message is still there.

Edit isn't one of the options for the quick mod box.

I can however confirm this error: http://portalogy.myfabforum.org/

Upon receiving the error the address bar as follows:
http://portalogy.myfabforum.org/m...rt%3D0&confirm_key=TUGKNVMEI5

I get that after choosing to delete a topic using the quick mod box, this topic in particular: http://portalogy.myfabforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=20

I have just stumbled across this and it's apparently a 3.0.5 update issue: http://code.jfusion.org/issues/427

I am wondering if its something I did as others portals seem ok. I copied subsilver again and only added the portals and changed nothing else but still have the same issues so I am stumped what to do next. Do I need to be patient and wait for bugs to be fixed?
