We need more information, so it would be helpful if you would fill out the support request template. This does not happen on any boards I've tested.

Is the result the same when a poster deletes his or her own post and when a moderator deletes another users's post?

Do you mean that you updated from beta 5? If so do you realise that there is no support with upgrades from beta to RC?

I would suggest that you uninstall this mod (use the backup that you made prior to the install) and see if the problem still exists. If this does not solve the problem then

what else have you changed? It may also be an idea to use one of the phpbb3 styles and see if the problem is still there.

no i updated from phpbb2..

i did use the backup and i still got the problem...

nothing...


the problem has got so bad now that 7/10 you will hit "submit" on a new post/thread and it wont post.. just takes you either back to the thread or forum index...

really need to get it sorted

also using default theme makes no difference

My next suggestions would be;

1. Does the database have write permissions?

2. In config.php uncomment these two lines

Code: Select all

@define('PHPBB_INSTALLED', true);
// @define('DEBUG', true);
// @define('DEBUG_EXTRA', true);
  
This may show up a problem - it may also display other messages.

3. If the debug does not give any clues then I would suggest that you re upload phpbb3 (except for the install folder and config.php)

Which problem are we trying to resolve as it appears to me that you have posted three problems;

the 3rd problem relates to 2nd...

i have installed the forum on fresh files, but in a different folder, with same config, still messes up..

the main one im trying to fix is when you delete a post in a topic, the topic just disappears... :|

Well if you have done a re upload of the files, you have no mods installed and you are using the default template the only common denominator left is the database. Try running a repair on the posts and topics tables.

If that fails then I am out of ideas - sorry.
