unable to post reply

[shkaakwus]

I've tried a dozen times to post my reply, on the Walam Olum thread, at Research Needed, but everytime I hit "post," I get this message:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /smf/index.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Apache/1.3.41 Server at newagefraud.org Port 80


And, yet, it allows me to post this!!!  What's up?

Thats been happening to a few people when they try and post the header of an email or PM it. If your post includes an email header try removing it.

[shkaakwus]

Thanks, but that's not it.  (No e-mail header in it.)  I posted all my replies the same way--wrote them as an e-mail message and sent them to my e-mail box; then copied and pasted as replies.  Now, that doesn't work.

Sometimes I will have problems posting in one thread if I've posted in it quite a bit. The problem ends in a few days. I have no idea why. In any case, the message you posted at the start of this thread is now also in the Red Record thread. Maybe it's fixed itself.

[shkaakwus]

Thanks, again, but I posted this on the Red Record thread, first.  When nobody responded, I thought to post it here.  I'll just wait, I guess.

One members reports buttons like Edit and Reply are gone for them. Is anyone else having that problem?

I'm having a number of odd problems with the site - for example, posts listed as "today" not there when you look at a thread, unable to edit or reply, posts opened and read remaining on unread listing, pms shown as unopened, but no new ones there  - just all sorts of odd things and they are different every time I log in.

posts listed as "today" not there when you look at a thread, ... < snip > ... posts opened and read remaining on unread listing,

Yeah, this stuff. Inconsistencies between posts marked as read or unread, and new posts not showing up as new, so sometimes I miss stuff. Then other things come up on repeat.
