yes i have created two categories. i can see these categories as well but i am not getting any links for creating new post
I have been really pulling my hair for this small thing.

Just for the information i have installed only the powerboard component (com_powerboard_1.0_r237.zip) i have not installed any bridge or any other thing. also please clarify if powerboard requires any addiotional module component or mambot or any other files?



BTW thanks for the reply
