Carl,

Thanks, I will do that next time (yes, a screenshot would have been much more meaningful). The views module got updated today. After I installed the update, the problem went away.

I am relatively new to drupal, and this is the first time I am trying to setup a forum. I am using the drupal 7 release from Dec 1st, and I followed the forum setup documentation (http://drupal.org/node/796472).

My issue is:

In the list of forum topics, the topic list is not displayed properly. This is how it looks like:

<span thmr="thmr_62"><a href="/druptest/testtopic">&lt;span thmr=&quot;thmr_32&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/druptest/testtopic&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;span thmr=&amp;quot;thmr_7&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;a

href=&amp;quot;/druptest/testtopic&amp;quot;&amp;gt;testtopic&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</a></span> By ursula 40 years 11 months ago        0       n/a Normal topic

<span thmr="thmr_70"><a href="/druptest/new-topic">&lt;span thmr=&quot;thmr_40&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/druptest/new-topic&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;span thmr=&amp;quot;thmr_15&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;/druptest/new-topic&amp;quot;&amp;gt;new

topic&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</a></span> By kwickly 40 years 11 months ago

Additionally to the tags instead of just "testtopic" (liked), it shows that I posted this 40 years and 11 months ago. When checking the posting directly, the date is correct, also the date on my server is correct.

First I thought it is an issue with the theme I was using, but after changing themes twice (now at the default Bartik 7.0-rc1), it looks like the problem is somewhere else.

Any ideas?

Depending on your needs for specific modules, you might find DrupalGardens a good option for developing sites in Drupal 7 at this time. A forum can be set up, and once Drupal 7 settles down, you have the choice to stay on DrupalGardens or export your site and theme to another host. http://www.drupalgardens.com/

Ursula: FYI, I tried Drupal 7 (also as a new user) and found it not ready for newbies to use. Many of the themes and modules have not been updated yet, and there is only one book yet, and the platform is still changing. The online docs were useful, but left gaps that caused me to waste a lot of time. So, I went with version 6 and figured to upgrade when 7 was formally released. It's hard enough getting to know Drupal without dealing with bugs too.

The best, Bill
