New forum version
I just upgraded our forum to the latest version. I even managed to keep the database alive this time, unlike the previous... ummm... 'incident'
Re: New forum version
Mainly a security update, although I also implemented the ability to freeze threads.
Re: New forum version
The ability to freeze threads is a fine thing for a forum to be able to do.
Re: New forum version
now the ability to have a "sticky" thread (keeping a thread on top) would be the next useful feature.

Re: New forum version
I'm working on that
Re: New forum version
Wjp, are you sending your patches back to the Phorum team, or are you planning on creating your own fork ?
Re: New forum version
I did originally, but they pretty much ignored me, so I gave up after a while.
Re: New forum version
Ok, sticky/keep-on-top threads are in too
Re: New forum version
Stickies are in now? I'd say the first one to create would be one explaining the proper procedure for reporting bugs.

Re: New forum version
Yeah, good idea. We're discussing what we want exactly in a sticky+frozen thread at the top, at the moment. Suggestions are welcome

Re: New forum version
Could you make the sticky/frozen patches available somewhere for download?

Re: New forum version
Our version of phorum is in our CVS, in the 'web' module. (The 'forum' directory, specifically)
Note that it isn't fully working, since I haven't updated the database setup scripts. (We kept our current database when upgrading, so I didn't need to run the setup of this version)
I might create a proper diff when I feel like it
(Oh, and it also doesn't work for all forum settings; only for the 'Float to Top' setting we use)

Re: New forum version
Hey, I dunno if I posted in this topic, I thought I did, but uhh anyway, the forum looks good, any plans for personal customization? Like, theme changing or something?
Re: New forum version
Just a couple of suggestions to maybe add to the 'frozen sticky' (eew. hehe). Maybe ask the readers, once they've read the FAQ and are still going to post, to put down their OS, and other system specs, as well as the stderr and stdout files. Might also want to suggest they do a forum search to see if their question has been asked/answered already.
Again, just suggestions
Again, just suggestions

Re: New forum version
the ability to modify a old post of yours should be very useful. No need to double-post or that kind of things. You guys have done it before as admins, but us, lowly users, would appreciate it too!
thx

Artaxerxes, it seems to me that you are no longer a "lowly person"
