I am testing and creating a second post to this forum. I am trying to link to an image on the internet.

After I do the math, I am directed to a white page that says: Forum not set – Unable to create post

Here is the page link: http://members.neothinkdev.com….._ahah=post

Here is the image that I am trying to link to:

that message means a forum id was not included in the attempt to save the post (which it probably was)…

historically, that message has been caused by the use of mod_security on your server… are you running mod_security?

Thank you for fast reply. I have no idea about mod security on my server. I use hostgator as my host provider.

I just tryed to post with an image link as admin and I received the same message.

It was working fine before as I have posted images in the past.

I have been changing settings on the forums. Is there a setting that can cause this?

no setting would cause that… I would check with your host and ask them if they are using mod_security… its the bane of developers… it has so many false positves on urls… they may be able to disable temporarily for you to test or create a whitelist rule for you…

well, not really sure what is needed… wouldnt have mod_security (and dont) on any of my servers…

do they just need the url?

just mentioned that because other mod_security users have whitelisted their way past this, but never asked for more details… if you can tell us what they need, we can probably help…
