How does one go about making their phpBB forum allow for video embeds? I can't seem to get it to work on mine. The video I am trying to post is coming from a news website and the code begins with the *object* tag: <object id="flashObj" width="486" height="412" classid=&...

"No role assigned" merely means that the permissions set in effect is not one of the pre-defined roles. Yes, you should set all user permissions to No. Then you want to set the Groups' Forum permissions under the Permissions tab. OK, you're right... the Groups' forum permissions under the...

You had to have set forum permissions or else the forums would not be visible. Do not set User permissions. They should all be No. Make sure the Registered users group has a Standard Access role for all forums. Well, I just DID set User permissions... should I change those back to "No role ass...

OK, I think I found how to fix it, finally. It is under the "Users and Groups" tab... when I click on the User's forum permissions and find my user info, I can then select a forum (or select all forums), hit submit and then it shows my forum permissions for each forum. When I first viewed ...

There is also a "Permissions" tab, but again, no place to "test" user permissions anywhere. Why am I not seeing this?

When you log out, does the actual button display or just the "New Topic" text? The actual button displays. You can see for yourself (since you won't be logged in when you visit): http://www.playcorkball.com/ Seems now your problem is down to your permissions in the specific forum(s) you c...

Your /imageset/en/imageset.cfg is incorrect. You've duplicated the /imageset/imageset.cfg inside of the /en/ directory. The .cfg file inside the /en/ directory tells phpBB where to find the background images for the post buttons (New Topic, Post Reply etc...). Because this information is not there,...

I must be going crazy... earlier today I was able to post a couple of new topics on my new phpBB forum install, but now I am not seeing a "post new topic" link anywhere... not a button image or text link or anything! What the heck happened and how can I get it back? As far as I know I did ...

Is it possible to import a Ning network forum into a phpBB forum? I'm not as concerned about the user info as much as just being able to save the discussion threads. My Ning network will be going away soon since I'm choosing not to upgrade to a pro account, which means I'll lose all of the topics in...

You just have to figure out what the correct path is to the root directory of your forum install. For mine, it was /styles/prosilver/imageset/imagetitle.png Obviously you should replace the name of the image with the correct file name, and if it still doesn't work, try removing the first slash or ad...

Here's another topic on the matter: http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=543281 I need to do the same thing when I upgrade, and that thread just confuses me more. :lol: I'm hoping it'll all make more sense when I actually do the conversion. But just in case, I think I'll seek assi...

that is what ive been requesting for a long time now http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=385757 Um, not exactly... the way I'm understanding it is you're looking for one that "when a user types in their email address and password, the system logs onto their email account an...

Is there a simple, easy mod available for making it possible for current forum members to invite their friends via email to join a forum? I have looked at both Invitation Only U2U and Referral Plus and they are both way more than I need (not to mention too complicated to install for just this one pu...

Can someone tell me if there's a mod available that limits the size of a user's signature file? I keep getting users posting large images in their sigs... How can this be fixed so that, say, no image over a certain size limitation (currently I have it in the guidelines ad 468x60 banner size) will di...
