The board that I run has really useful information in the posts and so I want to retain them, but my hosting provider has a limit of 300,000 files that I will hit very soon and this is due to the file attachments associated with these posts. How would you handle this situation? I was thinking of ret...

Thanks!

Please consider this closed for now; I've found some anomalies in my board that I need to fix and don't want to waste anyone's time!

Hi all, I'm on version 3.1.10 and am seeing strange behaviour. Specifically (I've added "2" to the tags shown below to stop them being interpreted): 1. The [img2] tag does not always seem to work (see below). 2. When the "image" button is pressed, the BBCode is now [image2]...[/image2], but used to ...

Thanks P_I!

I can't seem to find a way to delete my post, but wanted to say that this solution works for me! ...

The "number of posts per page" is a board-wide setting. Is there any way to override this somehow, on a per-user basis? Or based on a start/finish date?

I won't bore you with the reason for why I need this! Thanks!

Ah - ok. Thanks guys!

Hi all, I can't seem to access the phpBB gallery support forum, whose URL is: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/extension/phpbb_gallery/support I get the message "The contribution you requested could not be found.". I also can't find the gallery in the list of extensions. Anybody know what's up? Th...

A final note on this thread - JustHost cleared the Varnish cache earlier today, and everything has been fine since. I can only assume that there was some anomaly, or a Varnish bug, that caused its cache to be corrupted to the point that it just didn't work. I wish I could be more specific, but that'...

Thanks. JustHost seem to have a "blanket install" on the server I'm on, and all websites on that server will be affected. The cache update doesn't seem to be measured in seconds by any means - possibly up to 30 minutes, although I've not measured it. I can't imagine any but the most static websites ...

Thanks for all the replies. It turns out that JustHost has Varnish installed on its shared servers and is the root cause of the problem (it's caching information - badly - including cookies/session IDs). Given this thread: https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=466&t=2365031 ... then it see...

SiteLock was installed last week. Anyway, I've just had it removed and the problems remain. In essence, I seem to have some strange caching behaviour. For example, old versions of my pages get rendered. And the phpBB bulletin board is switching users based, I assume, on having the wrong cached sessi...

Thanks David. I'm half-convinced that this is a service provider problem. Even non-phpBB pages seem to be rendering old page versions (that require a simple MySQL db access) intermittently. I therefore think there is a caching / session management problem ... all help would be appreciated since Just...

I should also say that JustHost has implemented SiteLock on my site in the last few days; not sure what this does, but I didn't seem to be given a choice! But thought I should mention it!
