    I am trying to post in one particular thread and i get this error message:

    Forbidden
    You don't have permission to access /post.php on this server.

    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.


    Strangely i can post on other threads without issue.

    Why is this?

    Sometimes when you create a post with many BBCode errors (such as tags not closed) instead of being returned to the post creation with hints of where you went wrong you are redirected to the following page "Forbidden: You don't have permission to access /post.php on this server."

    I recommend you properly review each post before hitting the submit button to avoid the Forbidden page.

    Thanks to both of you. I was trying to include url links to some info someone requested. I'll be more careful next time.

    Gave up in the end. No big deal.

    Yeah there's a bug when posting some URLs. Random thing.
