Jim, The site looks great many thanks for all of the hard work on this.  I had the same issue as Bob, but after requesting a new password it worked fine.

Again, site looks great thanks.

Hey Bryan,

I did see that quote before an wondered what caused this...

As far as Links, well, let me try...
This link should open a new window to the Repair Certificate Thread...
http://soda-machines.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,29/topic,6441.60/

So the links function in this tool doesn't let you put alternate text like 'click here' and have the actual link url hidden?

Figured out how to make the URL thing work.
[ URL=http://.... ]link text here[/URL].  Remove the space between the first [ and URL and it works like this link to the coke wall post

As for the quote... no idea.  I just clicked the Quote icon in the top right hand corner.... like I did for this one.  Except that this time it seems to have worked?

I also had the problem with the password but requested a new one and all is ok now. Site looks great!

Ok after I posted the above reply I was sent back to the main discussion page but had 15 warning messages at the top of the page.

This is the message

Warning: opendir(/home/sodam1/www/soda-machines.com/administrator/components/com_smf/cache/db/cache_c/): failed to open dir: Permission denied in /home/sodam1/www/soda-machines.com/administrator/components/com_smf/includes/Lite.php on line 611

I had the same problem a couple times.... hitting the browser refresh seemed to clear it up.

I had these "warnings" on the home page as well, but as Bryan suggested, refreshing the page seemed to solve this... I haven't seen this in a while now...

Creighton,
To recap, you're saying that when you attempt to post a new topic or even reply to an existing one, there's no Attachment box toward the bottom of the page as in the image posted by Bryan...?
Is anyone else experiencing this missing attachments box...?

And Bryan, Thanks for the aid and your experimentation ! ! !
(I changed the thumbnails size to 250 x 250 too)

A note to everyone, the Help Section is very good for this Forum System!

One problem I have ran into, and this could cause some problems, is that some how I get outside of the main site and find myself in just the Discussion Areas without main Site Navigation on the left... Hmmm....

One solution for most of these intermittent problems may be to clear cookies for soda-machines.com . I had a few issues that have gone away once I cleared them, and started all over.

Very true Ken, Thanks ! ! !

I noticed that this happened to me after I went to the discussion Admin tab.

Also...is the Photo Gallery running?  I keep getting the following error when I try to go to that area:
User Collision error, the same username is already in use and cannot be linked together with the current settings.

Is anyone else having log-in (or logged out) issues? Here is what has happened to me a few times today:
I go to SMC home page.  It shows that I am logged in - except (I noticed this time) a few new messages that are displayed at the top do not have "new" next to them (when they should).  I click on the Discussions link and and it shows that I am a guest and I need to log in to the forum.  I click the Home link and it shows that I am not logged in.
 
Additional notes:
-I have it selected that I am always logged in.
-I haven't even closed my web browser today (keeping track of some nasty t-storms near me).
Is this happening to anyone else? 

(Jim-could this be related to the Photo Gallery issue that I am having?)
