Hi, I just installed my UseBB today and I must say it is a wonderful little piece of software. I have used and worked with quite a few different message board softwares and this has to be one of my favorites. But to my issue - when I go to delete a post or a topic it tells me I do not have permission to access the /edit.php file?

Is there a fix for this? :)

Check the permissions of the file (via FTP, SSH) so that they are the same as with the other files.

I had the same problem as well, but it was due to my host and how they had mod_security set up.

My host placed this in my .htaccess file, not sure if your host would do the same, you may want to contact them first.

Thank you both very much, the lines placed into the .htaccess file did the trick. :)
