Thanks, will fix that.

Redirect after doing stuff should be gone now.

Colours have been changed. Better?

Syntax highlighting works once again. Our tech slaves have successfully reintegrated that feature into the BBCode parser.

If someone wants a dark theme, take our current style sheet, and make a dark version from it. I would add it as an alternative.

Well, regarding BBCode changes: I would not add too much stuff. This boards parser is quite configurable, and defining allowed nesting is not hard but one of the results of nesting too many tags is that sooner or later, posts will break the parser. I've seen that with vBulletin. Don't ask how many posts I had to manually fix in the last two years.

Regarding AJAX stuff: I have no issues with AJAX, if used with a sense for necessity. But first things first, next on the list of fixes are:

• syntax highlighting. I am re-enabling the [ code=... ] stuff soon, my tests yet have worked, only a beautiful style is missing for now.
  
• better URLs. Readable stuff is nicer, we'll have that too very soon.
  
• caching. Yup, might sound overrated, but helps if you do not have to ask the database to act for every request.
  

A bit more work is required to fix the issue of properly storing the read topics. This will probably take a few days, until I can work out a sane approach to fix that.

Change

while( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
 $t_name = $row['name'];
   echo "[b]<span style='color: #B00000'>$t_name[/b]</span>";
}

to

while( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
 $t_name = $row['name'];
   echo "[b]<span style='color: #B00000'>$t_name[/b]</span>
";
}

There will not be anything scripted except the Wowhead powered tooltips. The only thing I plan on changing about the theme is to improve the colour contrast a bit, and apply a few fixes to the CSS. No fancy AJAX stuff.

yeah but linked mail was hacked three years ago ' date=' not a pb i use my real name for now [/quote']

If you want to, I can merge your old and new account into one

Noticed that. Apparently the forum sets every topic on read once you're logged out. Putting that on the list of things to fix.

Thanks for your summary. I'd be interesting to hear more about why you turned SMF down.

Honestly: SMF is one of the pieces of software that just makes me feel uncomfortable. Probably you know the feeling.

Bad: seems i lost all my thanks count again ;<

I have imported all thanks from the old forums, which is why there should be thanks views below posts. Probably I forgot to display the overall count somewhere

Nice to see new software

More performance, higher nerd rating

We will see. I had tested FluxBB all through their 1.4 development cycle with converted vBulletin data, and it survived

BTW: I am going to use the Tango Desktop colour schema which most Gnome users may know from their desktop icons.

I plan the let people access a read only copy of the old forum for a while.

Fresh forums

Are you trying to get that information outside of the server or in a script?

Apparently there still are some issues with this thing. Damn it.

Working on it.

Equips his mind control device... you have not seen the tech Gnome, you have not seen the tech Gnome *bzrrrr*

lol, you Devs don't have any idea on how to use WPE. When you want to dupe, you need to get something called ISF (Item Data Save Fail), when you get ISF, you get like a "Rollback" on all the clientside items. That's why most of WPE users put things on guild bank or send items by mail.

Interesting guide, will check it.

Hope to see this in the master.
