How Make/Create A Post in the Forum?

---------------------------------------------------------
How do I post a topic in a forum?
To post a new topic in a forum, click the relevant button on
either the forum or topic screens. You may need to register
before you can post a message. A list of yourpermissions in each
forum is available at the bottom of the forum and topic screens.
Example: You can post new topics, You can vote in polls, etc.
How do I edit or delete a post?
Unless you are a board administrator or moderator, you can only
edit or delete your own posts. You can edit a post by clicking
the edit button for the relevant post, sometimes for only a
limited time after the post was made. If someone has already
replied to the post, you will find a small piece of text output
below the post when you return to the topic which lists the
number of times you edited it along with the date and time. This
will only appearif someone has made a reply; it will not appear
if a moderator or administrator edited the post, though they may
leave a note as to why they've edited the post at their own
discretion. Please note that normal users cannotdelete a post
once someone has replied.
How do I add a signature to my post?
To add a signature to a post you must first create one via your
User Control Panel. Oncecreated, you can check the Attach a
signature box on theposting form to add your signature. You can
also add asignature by default to all your posts by checking the
appropriate radio button in your profile. If you do so, youcan
still prevent a signature being added to individual posts by un-
checking the add signature box within the posting form.
How do I create a poll?
When posting a new topic or editing the first post of a topic,
click the ''Add Poll'' tab below the main posting form; ifyou
cannot see this, you do not have appropriate permissions to
create polls. Enter a title and at least two options in the
appropriate fields, making sure each option is on a separate
line inthe textarea. You can also set the number of options
users may select during voting under ''Options per user'', a
time limit in days for the poll (0 for infinite duration) and
lastly the optionto allow users to amend their votes.
Why can't I add more polloptions?
The limit for poll options is setby the board administrator. If
you feel you need to add more options to your poll thanthe
allowed amount, contact the board administrator.
How do I edit or delete a poll?
As with posts, polls can only be edited by the original poster,
a moderator or an administrator. To edit a poll, click to edit
the first post in the topic; this always has the poll associated
with it. If no one has cast a vote, users can delete the poll or
edit anypoll option. However, if members have already
placedvotes, only moderators or administrators can edit or
delete it. This prevents the poll?s options from being changed
mid-way through a poll.
Why can't I access a forum?
Some forums may be limited tocertain users or groups. To view,
read, post or perform another action you may need special
permissions. Contact amoderator or board administrator to grant
you access.
Why can't I add attachments?
Attachment permissions are granted on a per forum, per group, or
per user basis. Theboard administrator may not have allowed
attachments to be added for the specific forum you are posting
in, or perhaps only certain groups can post attachments. Contact
the board administrator if youare unsure about why you are
unable to add attachments.
Why did I receive a warning?
Each board administrator has their own set of rules for their
site. If you have broken a rule, you may be issued a warning.
Please note that this is the board administrator's decision.
Contact the board administrator if you are unsure about why you
were issued a warning.
How can I report posts toa moderator?
If the board administrator hasallowed it, you should see a
button for reporting posts next to the post you wish to report.
Clicking this will walk you through the steps necessary to
report the post.
What is the ''Save'' buttonfor in topic posting?
This allows you to save passages to be completed andsubmitted at
a later date. To reload a saved passage, visitthe User Control
Panel.
Why does my post need to be approved?
The board administrator may have decided that posts in the forum
you are posting to require review before submission. It is also
possible that the administrator has placed you in a group of
users whose posts require review before submission. Please
contact the board administrator for further details.
