Unable to Post, and No Stylesheet Applied Unless Logged In

Yeah, I'll go ahead and upgrade to version 18, but I probably won't be able to get to it until next weekend. So I'll keep this thread bookmarked, and report back when I do. Thanks for keeping on top of this issue. Very much appreciate it...

Can you upgrade to Beta 18 and set the value to 0 again to see if the same issue continues?

I've entered it into JIRA, but to be honest the way it works isn't going to be the highest priority to get fixed. They'll get to it though.

That was it, Wayne!! Definite bug then. It was set to 0. I put it to 10,000, and all of a sudden, I'm posting like a champ! Thanks so much!!!

What do you have for "Maximum Number of Characters in a Post"?

In the Admin CP go to Settings -> Options -> Message Posting and Editing Options. Change Maximum Characters Per Post. Save. Default is 10,000 characters. Could be a bug with 0 there disabling it and we'd need that entered into JIRA.

Thank you, Zachery. That fixed item #2 in my original post. Item #1 still remains - Unable to post, as administrator, with proper access granted to channel. Keep getting the following error: "Maximum number of characters exceeded. It can be more than 0 characters". I have edited the .htaccess file as suggested, and baseurl in the config file is correct. Any other ideas? Thank you so much...

It looks like you have css as files on, try disabling that.

AdminCP > Settings > Options > Style & Language Settings > Store css as files > No

Thanks so much!

I'd need a link to your site.

Any other ideas? Thanks so much....

1) Make sure that the url listed as the baseurl in your /config.php file is the URL that you're accessing the site from.

2) if you have .htaccess in a parent directly, add RewriteBase to your vB5 .htaccess directly under RewriteEngine On. Should be like RewriteBase /vb5/ where vb5 is the name of the directory you installed the software in.

3) Verify your permissions for all usergroups for posting under Channels -> Channel Permissions. You can set global permissions by editing the HomePage Channel.

Did as you suggested, and everything is the same. What else can I try? Thanks...

Just upgraded a test environment from vb4 to vb5, and while we're struggling to learn the in's and out's of all the changes, it would appear two consistent issues have come up:

1. When I try to post anything, I am given the error message that reads: "Edit Conversation...Maximum number of characters exceeded. It can be more than 0 characters". My test post reads simply, "Test Message".

2. If I am not logged in, the page does not appear to use any stylesheet.

Any ideas as to how to fix these? Thanks...
