My forum (version 7.5.6p1) has recently developed an issue where replies are visible (in 'Preview Post') but then don’t appear when the reply is actually submitted. This applies with ‘Reply’ and ‘Quote’. I’d be interested to know if anyone else has encountered this issue - and found out how to rectify it. Many thanks in advance.

This is a generalized error that generally indicates a configuration issue (such as the database information being incorrect); you can disable the mechanism that hides the message (it does so for security [passwords can be displayed], if your forums are configured to save errors to a log file it'll be displayed there) by editing the libs/mysqli.inc.php file and changing:
Code
$showerror = 0;

To:
Code
$showerror = 1;

Be sure to change the value back once the error message has been viewed (as again it can contain connection information for your server, saving logs is the recommended option).
