*** admin moved to its own topic ***

Hi,

First - fantastic work on the version 5.  I really like the plugin integration and the themes separated off. Most of all: Being able to update automatically is wonderful. I would go months not upgrading on one of my forums before just because I really did not want to make a mistake.

This issue could be some kind of permissions issue, but I have looked over my backend permissions and it does not seem to be that.

My issue on this is there is nothing hovering or otherwise showing to edit a post headline or delete a post. It does offer the "Edit" button, with hover message "Edit this post."

I just updated to the latest themes and I updated to the current build, 7960. Theme I am using is iForum v1.0.11.

Any suggested would be appreciated.

Thanks,

John

interesting. iforum was originally intended as an experimental theme but quite a few folks ended up using it during the pre-release phase. 

There does seem to be an issue getting the forum tools to show on forum view pages...  but it shows up fine on the topic view pages...

will open a ticket to see what is going on...

how odd.  turns out that theme is missing the template tag to display the forum tools on forum view pages.  strange it never came up during the pre-release...

will get it fixed up...

Hi,

After upgrading to v5, the toolbar is now missing from the reply window (the one you see above the window where you write a post). Any ideas where it went and how I can get it back? Thank you in advance for your time.

Did you download the plugin and if yes, did you mess with the controls? Just had that problem myself experimenting to see what would happen..

I did everything I was asked based on forumwiki. Deactivated 4.5.1, deleted it, then uploaded v5. Same process as always. Any ideas?

but that's not the question. Did you also download and install the editor plugin?

I wasn't aware that I was supposed to install an editor plugin. How do I do that?
