is there anyway you can tell me what you  did cause i am having the exact same problem with this other mod

SMF Topic Prefix Mod
i have attached the mod

when i install it it puts everything down at the bottom even your mod gets moved to the bottom if i uninstall it it goes back to the post board select working fine as soon ads i install it it puts both at the bottom

Well, please note that I didn't manage to reproduce the screenshots you showed me, with something at the bottom. The apparent coincidence might be just a coincidence, but if it's the same thing, then it concerns writing the layout of the page in RC2 style, with <dt></dt> and <dd></dd> instead of tables.
It seems the author has actually updated the mod perhaps, since you posted here v1.2a.zip and on the mod site I see v1.2.zip. It might be worth verifying.
To-do lists are for deferral. The more things you write down the later they're done... until you have 100s of lists of things you don't do.

1.2 does not work at all on RC2 it doesnt show in the post another member modified the package to work on RC@ and it does work well at least it is showing now when you make a post but like i said it is doing the exact same thing that this mod was doing before you fixxed it so it's gotta be the same fix like i said the 1.2 after you install it you cannot see any thing related to the mod when making a post after ijnstalling 1.2a it is there in the post but it knocks everything to the bottom of the post just like this one was doing

as a matter of fact the posted 1.2 will not even install on RC2

You're most probably right: 1.2a, which you attached, is not fully compatible with RC2, as I said: it writes the layout on page using tables.
It needs to be updated to RC2 properly.

I'm really sorry, but I don't think I can do that (I'm not sure I have the right, even), however, if you want to try tweaking it a little, the idea is this: the code of the mod, in Post.template.php, still uses, wrongfully, tables to display whatever it displays (sorry, I don't even know the mod), that is, it uses:
<tr>, </tr>, <td>, </td>
instead of creating the layout with:
<dd>, </dd>, <dt>, </dt>

The last bits are compatible with RC2, because the entire page in RC2 is done using those divisions, unlike before.
To-do lists are for deferral. The more things you write down the later they're done... until you have 100s of lists of things you don't do.

so if i understand you correctly i would need to install it and go to my post template and change those values

The best way is to tell the problem to the author and ask him to see if that is the case, and to update it properly, instead of hacking it, honestly.

i am not gonna mess with it i would probably do more damage than good but i can't really see how it is hacking when the mod states that it works but it doesnt and there are numerous posts and no reply from the author oh well i guess we wait

thanks for the help

this author has two mods that state they work on RC2 and they dont and he has answered posts asking for help with no help at all i really dont understand either say you are gonna fix it or say your not and remove the mod wouldn't that make more sense

buenas, estoy tratando de lograr que al crear un post sea necesario elegir una categoría para postear osea un foro en el cual estara el topic.. como ya sabran, el mod post board select te permite elegir la categoría para postear, pero no es necesario elegir la categoria.. osea si ingresas a /?action=post;board=5, te posteara en el foro 5 si no elegis la categoria al postear, otro ej si se ingresa asi /?action=post;board=7, te postea en el foro 7 llamese amigos o prefabricados, pero si ingresas /?action=post;board=8 y elegis una categoria para postear, no te postea en el foro 8 sino en el que elegiste para postear.. y yo lo que quiero lograr es que si o si te exija elegir una categoria para postear, osea que si no elegis la categoria te salte algo que diga, debes elegir una categoria, o algo asi.. espero que entiendan!

el mod post board select: http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1189

aca un topic relacionado, pero la diferencia es que quiere hacer lo mismo pero con otro mod, el Post Prefix

Please note that this board is in English, we don't speak Spanish so it's difficult or impossible for us to understand you...

Still, perhaps you would like people to be forced to choose a board? Instead of choosing by default the board they happen to be when they pressed "New Topic", they could be forced to choose something themselves from the drop-down menu?

I managed to successfully install the mod yet nothing shows.

This is a handy useful tool to have on the forum.

By the way I'm using RC4.

Biology Forums

Is there a way of excluding certain boards?

Can I get this to work on RC5 ?

In this modification, there is a problem with the pre-moderation topics.. (error: Sorry, you cannot post new topics in this board.)
The problem here is http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=440722.0
The solution:
file post.php
find
$boards = boardsAllowedTo('post_new');
replace
$boards=array_unique(array_merge(boardsAllowedTo('post_new'),boardsAllowedTo('post_unapproved_topics'))); //var2
