Tried to make a post but as soon as I click 'New Topic' it just throws back to the main forum page.

It does exactly the same when you try 'DVD Reviews' as well.

Yep, the URL is wrong, it's redirecting back to the homepage.

It should be: https://www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/SMFN/index.php?action=post;board=125.0 (https://www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/SMFN/index.php?action=post;board=125.0)

That'll allow you to start a new topic in the book review section, which I've actually been meaning to do!

DVD one is https://www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/SMFN/index.php?action=post;board=124.0 (https://www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/SMFN/index.php?action=post;board=124.0) (just take the board number from the URL at the top of the page in the topic list).

Thanks, Nick, but this isn't the first time it needs fixing.

Very odd! Yes, clearly it needs fixing, weird it only happens on those 'high number' boards.

Strange, I can get straight in with no issues.

So, you click 'New Topic' and it throws you back to the front of the forum?

Thanks.  I can't put my finger on the problem, but I think it's a permissions issue.  I'll get there....!  :D

FWIW I was able to submit a review by using the correct URL (which I guessed from the forum number), but the actual button redirects to the homepage.
