I can't see the buttons for text options etc.

When I first joined the forum there were buttons for quotes, links, images etc., but they are no longer there. I've looked all through my profile, cleared cookies, tried a different browser etc. no joy. What's happened?

For example, here's how I see the post new topic page:

That is very odd. I just tried posting a new thread and they are there. Hmmm, I'll see what I can find out from the software's support forums.

Hi Alex,

Any luck with this?

No, I haven't heard back from the forum developers yet. I'll post here when I hear something... very odd problem. You should still be able to post regular text in the meantime. Which function from the toolbar were you hoping to use?

All of them I guess. I'm pretty familiar with forums and they all use similar tags so at the moment I'm typing them in, which is a bit labourious.

Hmmm that is strange. Have you installed any addon tool bars or anything like that?

No I haven't made any changes to my system since joining the forum.

I still haven't heard back from support. These forums are made with free software so I suspect we may not hear back. Any chance you have javascript disabled in your browser? If not maybe try a different browser or try from a friend's computer and see if either of those helps.

I don't have anything disabled and I get all the text options on another forum, although that is using phpBB not MyBB, strange.

Hmmm, yes it is odd. I would try logging in from a completely different computer and see if it works.
