Why is it displaying the username and password in the header? if anyone is looking over my shoulder, they would know my password!

Edited. Thanks!

This extension is intense. I couldn't explore it because of this error when I logged in:

Looks pretty good! But be careful .. you have an account switch on the test account that goes to the admin account.

Not wishing to discourage you but can I make a few suggestions about your code before you get too far down the road - especially if you intend submitting this extension to the CDB.

• Firstly I would suggest that you look at phpBB's coding guidelines as much of your code does not conform especially your non use of Unix line endings, but there are other coding issues (opening { for example must be on a new line)
• There are many other errors which are highlighted if you run your GitHub repository through the EPV.
• You need to break your language file into several files and only load the ones that are need at that time - you do not want to be loading all your ACP language on every page. Also I would suggest that you look at using plurals.
• Many of your language variables are already in the core and whilst there is nothing wrong with re-defining them in your extension there is a possibility that core functionality could be affected if they are defined differently. It will depend on the order in which the files are loaded - the last will overwrite the first. By all means use your own but ensure that they are unique.
• You cannot have an underscore in your namespace.
• You cannot have globals in controllers.
• You should consider using Twig syntax in your templates - you can use this tool to convert them.
• You have some hard coded language in your template files.
• I am not sure what the phpBB version checks are for in your listener file but as phpBB 3.1 is now unsupported there is no requirement for backward compatibility and version checking should be done via the ext.php when installing the extension.

Thank you! I'm new to phpbb and as a developer, so for me your help was very important. At the moment I do not care to send the ext to the CDB (it's to much soon with so many features to correct and add).

Firstly I would suggest that you look at phpBB's coding guidelines as much of your code does not conform especially your non use of Unix line endings, but there are other coding issues (opening { for example must be on a new line)

Ok i correted opening { and now i use the Unix line endings. If i' ll see other bug i' ll fix they.

There are many other errors which are highlighted if you run your GitHub repository through the EPV.

I correted many errors and soon i'll finish to correct other, but i don't understand how to correct Warning: Can't detect the file type for message.mp3, handling it as a binary file.. I' m using a file .mp3 for "notification sound on chat".

[*]You need to break your language file into several files and only load the ones that are need at that time - you do not want to be loading all your ACP language on every page. Also I would suggest that you look at using plurals.
[*]Many of your language variables are already in the core and whilst there is nothing wrong with re-defining them in your extension there is a possibility that core functionality could be affected if they are defined differently. It will depend on the order in which the files are loaded - the last will overwrite the first. By all means use your own but ensure that they are unique.

I have divided the language file (main, acp, mcp, ucp, error migration), and set basic plurals, i hope to don't forget nothing.

[*]You cannot have an underscore in your namespace.

I have renamed pg_social in to pgsocial

[*]You cannot have globals in controllers.

Removed.

[*]You should consider using Twig syntax in your templates - you can use this tool to convert them.

Changed.

[*]You have some hard coded language in your template files.

Can you take me a example, so i can correct?

[*]I am not sure what the phpBB version checks are for in your listener file but as phpBB 3.1 is now unsupported there is no requirement for backward compatibility and version checking should be done via the ext.php when installing the extension.[/list]

I hope to have correct this.

I did not check all the files, but here are some examples:

You can ignore that message

Now i' m focused on optimize the code and her queries, and fix the last bugs.

After i wanna like find a mode for "interact" with other extensions. (Calendar Events for example and etc...)

Very impressive and promising work! I'm definitely keeping an eye on this.

Will you be extending the permissions for this extension? It would be nice if for example only people in a specific group can chat. Or people in another group have a "wall". So newly registered users have the default phpBB profile page, for example (or the pgsocial "style" without any additional functionality).

Same for the ability to add pictures, etc (to avoid potential diskspace issues) as well as other features. Overall having the ability to finetune the experience for different users and groups would be splendid, and for some admins/hosts a necessity.

What is the "Create a page" permission for, exactly?

And lastly something a little odd. Every time I click on a friend's profile, I get a "transferring data from adservice.google.ca" - is there Google Ad functionality embedded in this extension?

[eunaumtenhoid]

Is it possible to implement a mention user system or compatible with a paul extension and add a hashtag system? add option to leave comment on profile? as the extension coment on profile or compatible with it?

[SinusVonAlpha]

Hey there! This extension surely takes profiles to a whole new level, but there is one major problem I am facing:

I successfully enabled it and the page activity page under /social is working fine, but when I click on profile names within the board I get the following error:



Any idea on how to fix this?
