Yes, that sounds like it should be wonderful

I don't know about Jimmy... but I'm well :)

Hi Bear / Jimmy,

Many thanks for this, this was intended behaviour however based on your feedback this has been updated for the next release candidate. If a forum does not allow topics, it will not be marked as closed, previous topics will appear however you won't have the option of creating any new topics / polls or responding to existing topics / posts.

This has not yet been updated on the demonstration site, a number of fixes will be uploaded today.

Hope your both well,

I just tried it in the Demo forum and it definitely seems to be a bug.

I'll move this thread to Awaiting Review.

Allow Posts Within Forum?

Bare — Tue, 10 May 2005 13:12:57 GMT

1. I have a forum with some topics in it
2. I set the "Allow Posts Within Forum?" setting to "No"
3. Now when viewing the forum all the previous topics are not displayed.

I thought this would just remove the "Add Topic" & "Add Poll" buttons, but still display the previous posts? I realize I could just "close" the forum, but I still think this should show previous topics.

Is this a bug or intended functionality?

Thanks
