I've upgraded two forums and everything seems to work nicely...except for PMs. When I write a pm to another user and click on the submit button, nothing happens.
Preview works, but submit does nothing.
Has anyone else experienced this?
*edit* Okay, I just played with things here to see how it works. Not only does the Submit button not work, but the "Add" button doesn't work either.

Was this an upgrade from 7.0/7.0.1 or from an earlier version. When the submit button is pushed it does run a javascript function. I believe this has changed a bit, so you may want to close your browser and reopen to make sure you don't have the old javascript library cached.
If it still does it after that, then you may want to check for javascript errors. In IE, you should get a little error down in the bottom left of the browser. If you're using Firefox then you'll want to open up the Error Console under Tools and see if it shows any errors there.

Hmm, this sounds like maybe a file wasn't uploaded. Can you check in your templates/default directory and look at the sendprivate.tpl file. If you have the latest uploaded you should see this at the start:
Code:
{* Script Version 7.0.2 *}
<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
var dupUser = "{$lang.ALREADY_ADDED}";
var tooMany = "{$lang.TOO_MANY}";
var pmLimit = "{$config.PM_PARTICIPANTS}";
</script>

It's possible. First thing, check and make sure that you have something set under Control Panel -> Feature Settings -> Maximum number of users that can be invited to a Private Topic?

Ok, I just registered on your site and when looking at the source of the sendprivate page it looks like it might have an old copy cached. Try this. Go into your templates/compile directory, yes I do mean templates/compile this time , and delete all of the files. This will clear out any of the old cached templates and make sure it generates a new copy.

I know you have resolved this but thought i would mention also that with Norton Firewall, they have a popup blocker which can be turned on and off per site.
This can cause strange behavious on submit buttons. As in it works and it dont work. Bare that in mind.
Only info

Well being in the US we know of Symantec and McAfee as being the top dogs, but in Europe Kaspersky is top dog and by many analyst in the field probably the best in the industry.
I really dislike both Symantec and McAfee and have recently started not using any AV software on my system. I have a Ghost image of the main system and store data on another drive. Been running this way now for months no problem. Downloaded and installed some AV and AntiSpyware and neither found anything - system runs so much faster and smoother without those pieces of junk being installed.

I do like McAffee, but all of that new fangled gloriness is too expensive for my tastes...
I've always loved symantec over the years, and still use their virus scanner utility (formerly norton) but that will stop soon since they're getting ready to only support windows vista and i refuse to use it).
I feel that one does need to have a virus scanner, but some of these free programs lack what i need, and the pay to use ones are too expensive :cough:...
I try to check my system for spyware/trojans every so often (spybot and adaware) but for the most part, those are the only utilities i use (short of norton corporate virus scanner)
, and delete all of the files. This will clear out any of the old cached templates and make sure it generates a new copy.
