Couple of Questions
DIR By: david

1. Why can't add a topic/reply via iPad yet I can do it on my
createaforum website?
2. I registered via smfforfree.com which uses the same software
and the same .createaforum domain. Does this count as
createaforum website?
3. How do I delete a forum?
4. I want to change the theme of my forum. How can I do that?
5. How can I create a staff only forum or just a category where
the topic/reply needs approval?
Thanks!

1. Uhh not sure so I'll let someone else answer. Are you using
the Safari browser?
2. CAF also runs SMF For Free. All signups at SMF are redirected
here. So your forum is a CAF forum and all questions about it
should be posted on this support site.
3. There is no way for you to manually delete your forum. What
you would need to do is put your forum in Maintenance Mode and
walk away (Admin > Forum Settings > Enable Maintenance Mode). If
you want to come back to your forum, you may do so later. You
can still log in when it's in maintenance mode but users can't.
But if you leave it alone, eventually when server space is
needed, it will be deleted.
4. There are some styles in the Style Support section. But the
content of the posts has been erased because the forum software
doesn't allow enough characters to post the whole CSS code. but
there's a glitch. So to get a style, you'll have to go to
Sibyl's profile and click "Show Posts" and scroll through them
to find the post of her styles. There you'll be able to see the
full content of the posts including CSS, Footer codes, and other
images.
If there are image links, you'll copy those and go to Admin >
Style Manager > Customize Images. Find the corresponding URL and
replace it with the new one.
For the CSS, go to Admin > Style Manager > Create Style. Name
it, paste the CSS in the text area and click SAVE. Then go to
the "Styles" tab and click "Pick Style" on the one you just
created.
When you go to Admin > Style Manager you'll be brought directly
to your headers and footers. They are labeled accordingly. That
is where the "Footer" info would go.
5. To create a section for the staff, you would create the board
(Admin > Boards) and under "Allowed Groups" you would only check
the groups you want to be able to see the board.
If it's a board that you want people to post in, but staff must
read the message and approve it before it is posted publicly,
