thanks Chirs, but I think you missed some modifications ;)

is true that the button part is the most important but there are also some modifications in that file that must be done so the portal works like it should work ;)


greetings!

are you sure you upload the file to Themes/your theme/ ?

also, try to clean your browser cache or try to view your site with a different browser.

can I have a link of your site too.


greetings!

There was a problem with the language string for the button, it was using 'tp-forum' instead of 'sp-forum'.

Try the attached file.
