phpBB • Free and Open Source Forum Software

Hi, I'm mass migrating users into the phpbb3 system from a previous forum system. I'm not writing a proper convertor for our bespoke previous solution, but using a method outlined in an Bulk Add Users post on this board for simplicity. However, on our previous site, users rank/points count comes fro...

OK I appear to have resolved this by replacing the prosilver theme completely from fresh.

Then in order for this to have effect I had to manually remove the contents of the cache folder.

There really needs to be something happen so that changing a theme doesn't white-screen everything.

I have the same issue: Your board's URL: http://snakenet.com/battleboard Version of phpBB3: 3.0.1 Was this a fresh install or a(n) update/upgrade/conversion (please be specific)? Fresh install. Was this an install through your host? No, manual. MODs you have installed: Advanced Quick Reply When the ...

Yes, I have the same issue.

Is there a known fix/workround?

These results are cached for each user in the phpbb_users table.

HTH you skinmaster

Excellent thanks!

One thing that is important to us with a module like this, is displaying a little icon next to people with current subscriptions, and a different icon for people who have at some point had a subscription. That way, you can see those who are currently supporting us, those who have supported us and th...

These are what you want... they will return the forum ids a user has the permissions for. f_list is to see forum. f_read is to actual read forum and the other two are obvious. $auth->acl_getf('f_list'); $auth->acl_getf('f_read'); $auth->acl_getf('f_post'); $auth->acl_getf('f_reply'); How is this se...

This is exactly spot-on what we need for a site I am building based on PHPBB3 (I'm writing code outside of PHPBB that harnesses the PHPBB authentication and authorization settings). I need my subscription groups to have extended settings, this is for online radio) so I want to be able to say that th...

OK I guess that was to be expected, but is there any further information than the user/admin manual: Here it says: Unlike phpBB2, phpBB3 offers support for authentication plugins. Can't seem to find anything about them anywhere else at all. Not even in the source code docs. I'm guessing I can just w...

Hi, I have a large site that I am involved in the development of. We're currently using Snitz forums, which I have hacked substantially to replace the under-lying user management system with integration to the pre-existing user management on our site. This covers things like profile, authentication ...

can you email me your patched files please. Not the templates, just the php files. I'll see if I can see if you've done anything wrong. mike@skinmaster.co.uk

You will need to reapply the changes to the php files, but the database will be intact, so the ezmod install will fail as the database table already exists. You have two options really. 1) Install the code changes by hand. 2) Rename the existing subscription table, install the mod, delete the new su...

It doesn't. But I think it could be easily changed to do so.

To clarify:

This is exactly like Watch Topic.

It works in exactly the same way. Exactly. In every detail.

When YOU post, it won't mail you.

Test with a 2nd account. Watch with one, post with the other.

I shouldn't imagine it's too hard. But I'd not thought of it myself. > Don't know any PHP myself but I may take a look at it anyhow...
