XF 1.2 Where did Thread Tools Go?

[Bill.D]

Hey all,

I am helping someone with a New Xenforo install. They have created a private node for all the Tech support threads we work on together. I recently added some prefix's that would be helpful, but I don't see "Thread Tools" at the top to change the title/prefix. I logged in as an Admin and as the Super Admin. Does this need to be enabled somewhere?

I checked the thread_view template and it has not been modified. In fact I can see in the template where it describes Thread tools.

Thanks,
-Bill

The thread tools dropdown is typically associated with moderators and the relevant permissions.

Thanks Brogan,

I didn't realize permissions weighted things so If I was part of enough groups that were not allowed to moderate then they would override the one group that allowed it. Its fixed now!

No, permissions don't work like that.

These resources should help:
