In a security update, Forumotion disabled posts with links for new members, and they had also unchecked allowing guests to post.
To undo this and allow guests to advertise once more, you should go to the
Admin Panel > General > SecurityMake sure that the following settings are active in the aforementioned page.
- Unauthorize members with less than a week registration to post external links and emails: No
- Unauthorize guests to post external links and emails: No
- Disable external links to guests in messages: No
With that done, you need to go into your
Categories and Forums go to
Advanced Permissions and ensure that
Guests have the right to Create A New Topic. Please let spread the word!
