Forum Upgraded

Now it's running a new version of punbb with less security holes.  Joy!
The custom blue "dwedit" theme and hacks like rank images haven't been added back in yet.

The reason I upgraded mainly was that the pocketheaven.com boards got hacked, and I don't want to see that happen here.  Even though this is not a phpbb swiss cheese message board.

Re: Forum Upgraded

It's weird to get used to.  I hope you get the skin and other stuff up soon.

Re: Forum Upgraded

Wow, you also finally made it so that when you read a thread it doesn't say it's new anymore.  This has always been a problem for me.  Unless it was exclusively my problem....

You can thank the mark_topics_read mod.  I was getting sick of it too.

Re: Forum Upgraded

Are you going to get PMs to work too?  Or was that just an error I imagined one day...

I mean, I once sent you a PM when I first joined and you never responded.  I thought there was either a problem, or uhh..yeah.

Re: Forum Upgraded

Yes, it was. I remember using it often. In fact, I'm using it right now.

Re: Forum Upgraded

what happened? The forum is all screwed up, almost like text-based browsers.
I use Firefox on Windows 98 (Second Edition)

Re: Forum Upgraded

Try changing your theme (on profile).

Re: Forum Upgraded

It works in cobalt. The dwedit profile messes up, and the profile i had before (the orange one) messed up too. The profile that shows when you start up messes up as well.

Re: Forum Upgraded

Ctrl F5 forces it to reload the stylesheets and images.  It was probably using an old, incompatible stylesheet from your browser cache.  The old stylesheet has the same url as the new one, but has very different styles defined in it.

edit:
PM's are back!

Re: Forum Upgraded

I would kill for a login function on the main forum page.  Seriously.  I would kill a man for it.

Re: Forum Upgraded

I mean, a prompt on the front page to enter your username and password.  Not just a link to a page like that.
