Hello,  My forum was just upgraded to v. 10.3.6.  I would like to change the message that displays for guests/members without permission to post to the sub-boards.

"You do not have permission to post new threads or reply to threads on this board."

I have found the text in the Languages folder > BoardIndex.lng file, item#s 99 & 100.  I have changed the text using Notepad, uploaded the file to the website and rebuilt the boards.  

I do not see any text change on my site. Is there a different file I need to change the text in or an additional procedure I need to complete before the changed message will display?  Or, can you direct me to any help information related to editing the Language files?

website:  http://www.olmc1.org/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl

Thank you.

You appear to be changing the wrong line in the English language file.

You need to change line 98 to affect the message you are referring to - see the clip below.

Lines 99 and 100 do not apply to the message that refers to BOTH posting AND replying in the one sentence.

Code
$boardindex[98] = 'You <strong>do not have permission to post new threads or reply to threads</strong> on this board.';
$boardindex[99] = 'You <strong>do not have permission to post new threads</strong> on this board.';
$boardindex[100] = 'You <strong>do not have permission to reply to threads</strong> on this board.';


Fingers crossed

Oh, I've been there too...

You just got lucky because I had to do some similar changes to another module recently, so the thing was still reasonably fresh in my mind.
