Ok, can we have a link??
Can you log in via member.php?action=login ??
I can get into the admin panel. Also the log in comes up when I try to reply to a thread if Im not logged in.
But the panel at the top, search, member list, welcome box etc is missing completely.
www.onelovednb.net/forum is the forum.
The login panel for this skin is at the bottom of the page...
I think it could be your header template - in your skin, edit Global Templates and edit "header".
Are there any "header" and "menu" div areas?
no no, this skin also has a welcome panel at the top, like all forums. So people can access their control panel, calendar & search etc.
this forum is one of 4 all with the same problem.
Also I cannot edit global templates becaue as previously written, there are none.
Make sure your header template isn't empty and that {$header} is in the index template.
{$header} is in the index template & header template isnt empty.
in the index template it looks like this
{$header}

Well what's in the header template? Templates -> Header Templates -> header...
Should have these elements:
<div id="header">
<div class="logo"><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="{$theme['logo']}" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a></div>
To display the forum logo... and
<div class="menu">
<ul>
<li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/search.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/search.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_search}</a></li>
<li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/memberlist.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/memberlist.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_memberlist}</a></li>
<li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/calendar.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/calendar.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_calendar}</a></li>
<li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/misc.php?action=help"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/help.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_help}</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
... to display the toplinks... plus things like {$welcomeblock}, {$pm_notice} etc. etc...
Thats because I have installed a brand new forum in the meantime
If you look at the old forum
www.onelovednb.net/forum1 you will see the old forum you were looking at before. Minus the theme of course because I have changed the root folder name.
I will try the suggestion mentioned above & check all the text in the templates.
Good news
One of the forums that this problem occured on I have ran the merge system & pulled the data onto the new forum, so 1 year of data has been saved & I have a login panel
