Private Messaging

Every time I try to send a PM, I just get an error message with:
The submitted form was invalid. Try submitting again.
Now, this is the first forum that this has happened to me on, but after searching a bit it would seem to be a bug with the theme for the forums (quick googling, I'm probably wrong)
Anyhow, I'm hoping that it is fixable.

It does that sometimes for me when I post on the forums. I dunno what it is, but you aren't the only one.

I get that message whenever I time out on the forums, whether in a PM, an OP, or a reply. I just hit submit and it goes through. Could that be it?

Trust me, I've checked that. I have to hit Submit an average of eight times per PM, and just once for forum messages. Besides, I'm not timing out, since my PMs are short.

But seriously, no idea why it does that for you. I don't get any trouble about that.

You said you found some info that pointed at a bug with the theme? Can you link that to me? (If not, I'll just go find it. But I just woke up ...
)
Or wait, try switching your theme and see if that helps? That's in User Control Panel -> Board Preferences -> My board style. It defaults to subsilver2, but you should have a choice to switch to prosilver.
Not that that's a permanent solution, but it might help me to debug. This sounds really, really annoying and I want to get it fixed for you fast.

Yeah, it's a rather annoying bug. (The message I sent to you regarding my mail took eight tries, for example)
I've tried changing to prosilver, and it worked, but then again, this bug seems to be random. It'd probably be preferable for me to use subsilver instead, as I can't find anyhting on prosilver.
If you read the sticky, you would know that you'll need to wait for an update to your custom styles to be compatible with RC7. You can use one of phpBB's default styles until then.

Mind you, I only read trough this very quickly, as I was tired, had a killer migraine, the birds outside REFUSED to be silent, and I felt feverish. xD
