Why is my New Thread Indicator Missing

When using a language different than English, the new thread indicator might be missing. This is because you installed a custom theme after installing a language. This will cause the indicator to be missing in the new theme. The image has to be added to the folder that is manually created.

To solve this problem, in your forum's directory, navigate to Themes > Your current theme > English and copy the two files (index.php and new.gif). Then, come back to your theme's folder and create a folder (if it is not created already) and name it with the language your forum is using. For example, if you are using Spanish_es UTF-8, then create a folder and name it "spanish_es-utf8" and paste the two files into the folder.
