Cant Reply/Create Thread [Button Does Not Work]

[- TuGs]

1) The URL to the page you are on when the bug occurred.
www.moreadvancedforum.com


2) What happened, in detail?
Create Thread & Reply button not working... when either of these are pressed the pagination search is blank but has the "Processing Symbol" it also does this immediately after you refresh too
appear then it disappears in 1 second or so...

i recently updated the awards plugin to stop a blank error from "flashing up" (similar to the ajax error people are on about..) accept mine was when you hit a pagination number a blank error box appears... then it redirects fine with the box gone on the new page.

i seem to have traded a bug for a bug here, (i have tried disabling ALL plugins but still does the same)

also i have some custom reply buttons placed differently from default!

ONE OTHER Problem (maybe separate)

my members ranks are acting weird they are not giving my members the ranks i have set properly
instead they have a much higher rank than what i set for there amount of post's?



3) What do you think should have happened instead?
direct to create a thread or reply page(depending on what button is pressed


4) Can you reproduce this on every pageview?
it is intermittent but you can usually get one or the other not work...

5) What browser, version, and operating system are you using?
i know of x2 chrome users and a safari user that have had this problem...

6) Please attach a screen shot (JPG or PNG -- not GIF or BMP) if it is relevant
dont think picture is needed... as the buttons do nothing lol


This is the chrome console error i get on the reply page...

Hi - TuGs,

This isn't a bug in the forum software, rather, the issue is being caused by a couple of changes you made to the layout template on your forum. To have this corrected, visit your admin panel and then navigate to Themes > Layout Templates.

To correct the "Create Topic" button, click the "Board" layout template. Once there, on line 19 find the following:

<ul class="ui-pagination" style="float: right;"><li class="ui-pagination-page"><a id="pagReply" href="$[create_thread_button.href]">Create Topic</a></li></ul>

Remove the class="ui-pagination-page" declaration in the li tags, so that your code should look like this instead:

<ul class="ui-pagination" style="float: right;"><li><a id="pagReply" href="$[create_thread_button.href]">Create Topic</a></li></ul>

Once that is taken care or, click the "Save Changes" button at the bottom of the page. Now to fix the reply button, return to the Layout Templates page and then click on the "Thread" template and find the following on line 7:

<ul class="ui-pagination" style="float: right;"><li class="ui-pagination-page"><a id="pagReply" href="$[reply_button.href]">Reply</a></li></ul>

Similar to before, remove the class="ui-pagination-page" declaration from the li tag. So your code here should look like:

<ul class="ui-pagination" style="float: right;"><li><a id="pagReply" href="$[reply_button.href]">Reply</a></li></ul>

Then click the "Save Changes" button once more. With these changes in place, both buttons should work properly again on your forum

[- TuGs]

Thank you ricky will try that in a sec and ill let you know how i get on...
Excellent news it was my own foolish fault

[- TuGs]

Thank you ricky!! seems to have done the job,
i cant remember doing this :S? probably drunk if i'm honest!
thanks in spending your time on helping!!

[CheatAreZee]

It's not a problem, glad to see that did the trick! Thanks for checking back on it

[- TuGs]

should i make a separate more detailed post for my member ranks?

my members ranks are acting weird they are not giving my members the ranks i have set properly
instead they have a much higher rank than what i set for there amount of post's?

at the moment i can tell this from my member "pjxox" which is ranked much higher than she should be?

[CheatAreZee]

If you could create a separate report for that, it would be helpful. Also when you provide more details, be sure to include some example usernames to the member accounts that this is happening on so we can look into it further
