That is by design, if you ask a question and accept the first post, people do not know the solution. So when you want to accept your own post (assuming the 1st post is the initial post), post a reply explainign what you did or didn't do to fix it and accept that one. And as far as I know if the person receiving a wxAward is equal to the initial poster, no wxAwards are given, it is more for the sake of completeness.

For the very first post, I understand; however, this also happens for the first post of page 2

Ahhh ok, that is NOT by design ... I didn't got the new page part.

Well before my g/f had to leave for the US I was busy setting up a shadow forum so that we could upgrade to a newer phpbb version. However she took my (old) laptop which I was experimenting on for the duration of her trip. Which means I have to find another way of trying to set up the wxForum on my PC so that I can try to fix minor bugs and see if we can upgrade..

But it is noted as a bug...
