    Default Posting new threads not working

    I don't know how to test posting a new thread other than to actually try it. I can't post a new thread in the "TECHNO-PRODUCTION-AND-DJING" forum so I'm trying here

    Default

    and that works......

    Can anyone let me know why I can't post in the "TECHNO-PRODUCTION-AND-DJING" forum but I can in here? I guess it's a permissions thing. The error I get is:

    Forbidden

    Okay - I finally sussed this one out. Just in case anyone else has the same problem:

    Here's what causes it

    You write a post and you incude URL links
    You preview the post before submitting it
    You go back to editing and the post has been changed to include html...this html is the links you included. Your message will have {url} and {/url} prepended and appended to all the links <- note I've had to change the square brackets to the curly ones or I'd be in the same boat again)


    Here's how to solve it

    Your permissions by default are set to:
    You may post new threads
    You may post replies
    You may post attachments
    You may edit your posts
    BB code is On
    Smilies are On
    [IMG] code is On
    [VIDEO] code is On
    HTML code is Off <--- this is the one

    Cut your message and paste into notepad
    Remove the {url} and {/url} <-- the real message will contain square brackets
    Paste back into your message and submit.

    Phew
