Best regards,
I write from Spain. I am trying to start a phpbb3 forum for a non-profit association.
The problem is that I don´t find (as administrator) two old options I knew about "CHANGE TO FIXED MESSAGE" or "CHANGE TO ADVERTISEMENT"
(perhaps I have written names which are not correct at all, but I am translating from spanish terms, as I think it should be)
Could you help me about that?
How can I fix a message into a forum at the top?
Thank you very much

(I am using Mozzila Firefox, perhaps it matters)

Hi Iam2010, welcome to IcyPhoenix,
I will move your question to the correct section because phpbb is different software than IcyPhoenix.
About your question....
Can you post a screenshot with some edits (arrows and whishes) of what you are asking?
Just to explain better what you want!.. right now I don't understand tbh.
Please make sure next time that you post your questions about phpbb in the phpbb section.. thanks in advance

Okey and Sorry for entering into other forum than the appropriate! And sorry too, because of my english or bad explanations.
What I mean is that I cannot use a function which allows to change a post into a fixed post or advertisement post.
For administrators, and for this specific theme at least, it was usual to be able to change a normal post to a fixed post.
Do I explain now better?
I cannot to show any screenshot to explain it better.
Perhaps this

Sorry?
Do you mean that I opened a "testuser" for entering to forum to see what is the problem?
I remember you that the function I talk about is only allowed to administrator of the forum.
Nonetheless if you want to enter, register and I valid your account. Use for example this name as user name: "testuser" so I can know that it is you.

Regards Again,
I am sorry, I have been very busy these days!
I don´t know what I must to do!
Can I change the version without eliminating information or my own images (logo, buttons...)?
Thank you very much for your help!

Depends on your personal changes (images should not be hard to avoid overwriting.
I think it would be best to start by reading about language and style updates at phpbb.com to familiarise yourself first.
Then post back here explaining what changes you made exactly and we ll try to advice you thr best way to update (there's more than one way)
Whatever you do... before making any changes... backup your full site (incl DB)

uuuhm looking at your site I can't really imagine you have modified a lot.
This will make both lang and style updates a piece of cake, just upload/overwrite the newest packs of both lang and style and do your modifications again (or exclude all images from the upload/overwrite)
BUT DON'T FORGET TO BACK UP!

Dear Joshua203
Firstly, I am sorry the delay, I have been very busy in my work!
Thank you for your explanations and recommendations.
Certainly, I have made some changes which seem to have broken somethings into my forum.
I am going to make a backup of the site and DB. Then, I am going to install the updated phpbb3 forum style again.
And after that, I hope I could to joint it again to the DB to keep the old existing posts. I don´t know if it is correct?
Can you explain me if I must to proceed in other way?
Regards!

First make sure you have a backup, then check your phpbb version > if lower than 3.0.11 .. update it, > if 3.0.11 then dowload the latest style version andover write all files... do the same for the language pack if not english.
That's about all you would need to do.
To me your forum looks empty btw... all changes i notice is a changed logo.
