Finally!
See you, AK.
you still didn't answer on my message... 
Sorry about that! I was figuring out how to work out the bump button.
Turns out that the bump option was set to be activated 10 DAYS after the last post. I changed it to 12 HOURS now. Allow me to test it.
EDIT: Ok, the BUMP TOPIC button is located... in the footer and it is quite hard to see among the background. Damn. This just gave me an additional good reason to change the style of this forum to Black and White. As I mentioned, it should only appears 12 HOURS after previous post and it can only be used by the last person who posted.
Hopefully this clear up things!

If this info is any help, I am posting and view the forum from a computer terminal at the library I work at.
And, the user control panel, board index on the library screen is not top to bottom, but left to right in order to fit into the screen. And the background makes it difficult to find them. Took me a couple of seconds to find the log in link.

Oh, I forgot to mention about that.
I changed the styling system so that the BOARD INDEX --- LOGIN section are now stacked from vertical format to horizontal format. The previous forum that Mateusz previously managed used to have that horizontal format before he handed the forum over to me and its reverted to vertical format. I didn't like the vertical format because it clashed with the style of this forum.
I admit that the words up there are bit harder to read because they're small and think. I want to make them bigger, but the words may clash into each other if there's no space left. I still need to find a way to get rid of the "Change Font Size" and "E-mail Friend" since those are not really needed. They're embedded within the mess of HTML system and I am having a hard time finding it.
If anybody know how to do that, PLEASE let me know

That would be in the navbar. There isn't an option to edit the navbar?
I found the navbar in the HTML
Code: Select all
<div class="navbar">
<div class="inner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span>
<ul class="linklist navlinks">
<li class="icon-home"><a href="./index.php" accesskey="h">Board index</a> </li>
<li class="rightside"><a href="#" onclick="fontsizeup(); return false;" onkeypress="return fontsizeup(event);" class="fontsize" title="Change font size">Change font size</a></li>
So you would return your attention to the main HTML source in the admin panel, find those instances, and then just remove them and hope the site doesn't come crashing down.

It's not as easy as that.
The whole forum runs on a whole mess of HTML system, including PHP files that actually commands the structure of various HTML files. I will need to find a few PHP and/or HTML files that commands those useless links to appear and somehow rewrite them so that they will both not appears and not crash the whole forum down.
This is a high-level coding that I am not quite good at yet. The reason you see me changing the whole forum is because I was able to tweak the CSS file like a boss

If this whole forum runs on just HTML, I would be able to change a few things here and there. Since the forum also runs on PHP, that complicates things.
I would take a closer look at the files, but the cPanel is currently unsecured so I won't be able to check it out today. I could check the bbphp stuffs as well, the people there might have some good tips.
EDIT: I got rid of those useless links from that same "navbar" section through the power of CSS :3
EDIT 2: Also got rid of that pesky "Skip to content" link underneath the main title. CSS, yo.

I feel like a nag, but I'm gonna point out a little thing: After you submit a message, the success screen's background is slightly off. By like ten pixels. But it's enough for me to notice XD
WAIT! No, it's not a flaw. Because on that screen, I don't have to scroll down, so the page scroller doesn't show up. So then the screen autofills that strip of space. Nevermind
