Hi there !
I'm new to this site and I'm having hell trying to find where everything is. Particularly, trying to find where to make a new showcase post is driving me crazy. No matter how hard I look, I can't seem to find the button to make a new page !!
If anyone can help me I'd be really grateful ! I can even provide a screenshot of what my showcase page looks like.... I can't see a "create item" or "create new post" button anywhere !!

To create a new showcase item, you have to go to show case and press the button that says create item. It should be located right next to the path bar thing that says forums>showcase.
Make sure you fill in the required fields or it wont post it.

Unless it's in that teeny little button on the path bar, which in that case I can't find it in there either ?
Is it a case of maybe something isn't set up right on my account ??

There's a thing on the forum where new members can't post in the showcase, or at least right away. Maybe try to make some more posts around the forum & then see if the button appears for you.

Huh... that's pretty strange ...
Thank you though ! I guess I'll just have to be a little more active c: Hopefully that's the case !!

For future reference permissions are broken down in this help page: http://utaforum.net/help/permissions/

In order to create a showcase item you need to Introduce Yourself or reach 10x posts or replies in qualifying categories... and wait for the server to update. The user promotion server task runs a couple times a day and updates everyone's permissions accordingly.

Hey...I have a question regarding this showcase permissions thing. I have more than 10 posts/replies and already introduced myself...twice actually...but I still can't create a showcase post. Maybe I'm missing something...but, if not, can someone help me or try to fix this? Thanks so much!

The showcase is actually not available right now. Do to compatibility issue sor something if I recall correctly.
No one can use it right now.

Correct, Showcase is incompatible with our current version of XenForo and we will need to do an update.

Details are covered in this news post.
