I thought I had my cache set to dump every time I closed Firefox. I went in and checked and it turns out I did not.
Yes. I can now see the 2 buttons.
So what the heck is going on? There has been a continuous barrage of spam all morning.
I know we've been through this in the past but might it be time to consider a 24 hour waiting period before a new member can make a post?
Or possibly have every post from a new member that has an embedded link to go straight to moderation? I don't know if chordie has that capability but it worked very well on my homesteading forum. Nobody but the mods could see it and we could dump it before it had a chance to show up to the general membership.
I'm glad to hear that it was just a cache issue, and it's sorted out now.
Per is working on the spam issue. So far it seems to be contained to a less frequented section of the forums, so that's good news. I know it's tricky when you know how to moderate and feel like you're not seeing moderation happening. The bottom line is, different forums software is programmable in different ways, and at the moment, it's just not that easy to "flip a switch". There's coding that's still necessary on the back end, and a lot of this couldn't have been tested until the forums were live.
