I think Smartys was referring to the fact that, with OCR, the CAPTCHA would be very easy to break for spammers.

Looks like they just barely made it for now.
#978 Re: Core development » sqlite 3 » 2011-03-07 20:29:40

What I was talking about were things like num_rows() not working with SQLite3. We cannot fix that in an adapter without messing with some core files, though.

Hey Jon,
that will be difficult.
We are currently incorporating that module into the current code (1.4) as part of the development of 2.0. That will take a while, I suppose.
Is a database adapter for SQLite v3 what you want? Maybe I could try to write one for the current system (though I think there will be some difficulties)...

It will be done. The decision has been made.
#981 Re: Modifications (1.4 / 1.5) » [Plugin] CAPTCHAv2 Image Mod - anti (spam)bot registration - *dev* » 2011-03-06 16:26:47
- Franz
I haven't looked at the code, so I have a quick question:
What is the src attribute of the images of the captcha? Do you randomly select the name or do you call a script that randomly serves an image? If it currently does it the first way, you should use the second, so that adapting scripts to your protection is even harder.
#982 Re: FluxBB discussion » FluxBB: simple and lightweight? » 2011-03-06 16:20:05
- Franz
Yup, we need to find a balance.
What this means for me is that we should not always turn down feature requests. There are a few general decisions (e.g. private messaging, attachments), but besides that we are focused on having simple, light and fast implementations of the essential functions (that suit the most people).
Especially with the upcoming extensions, think Firefox (back when it was light-weight).

Looks nice. I like the use of the FluxBB logo on there 
#984 Re: Feature requests » attachments? » 2011-03-06 10:09:24

You can also read our "unfeatures" page for more information on why attachments are not part of the core.

Very cool, thank you!
#986 Re: General discussion » Punbb is offcialy dead » 2011-03-03 23:10:29

This shall be interesting.
#987 Re: Show off » What Do You Think? » 2011-03-03 23:07:04

Yup, you're really getting there!
#988 Re: General discussion » Punbb is offcialy dead » 2011-03-02 23:03:50

Yeah, maybe "behind" wasn't the best word. 
#989 Re: Feature requests » User list in the navbar as an option » 2011-03-02 14:03:22
- Franz
It basically means userlist and profile.
#990 Re: General discussion » Punbb is offcialy dead » 2011-03-02 10:58:46

I think they removed it at one point, simply because there's a company behind the product now.
#991 Re: General support (1.2) » Where to download fluxbb 1.2 » 2011-03-01 17:48:44
- Franz
It is far from easy to set up a styles section
In my eyes, it wouldn't be very useful without either a demo board or a screenshot - neither of which is easy to do...
We are trying our best, don't worry.
Regarding support topics: there are many nice things that could be implemented, but I will certainly refrain from this for a while, e.g. until inserting topics is easier with the new API

Darn. I didn't realize we didn't release that yet.

They are generated dynamically in header.php.

Maybe if more time was spent on the website, it might attract more people to become involved.
My personal opinion is that more time should be spent on the product rather than the packaging (as somebody once said very nicely). We are working on the site, but these things do not have top priority.
I think the Modifications section also needs some work. E.g. where are the links to the support topics for the mods listed there?
Mod owners can add "website" links - these are meant for support etc.

Sometimes it is possible, only lines to insert something are changed - sometimes not.
Indeed. Only trial-and-error can tell.
Or a thorough investigation for that matter - but if you've got time for that, you can just as well install the mod to see.
#996 Re: Modifications (1.4 / 1.5) » [MOD]Auto detect language » 2011-03-01 13:35:35

Nice.
I suggest you add this modification to our repository.
#997 Re: General support (1.2) » Where to download fluxbb 1.2 » 2011-02-28 21:03:14
- Franz
Which (in theory, at least for 1.4 it is true) means it isn't necessarily up-to-date.
Plus, we don't get download stats
#998 Re: General support (1.2) » Where to download fluxbb 1.2 » 2011-02-28 20:48:04
- Franz
No, much better is this: http://fluxbb.org/download/releases/1.2.23
I'll sit down and create an "old versions" page soon.
#999 Re: Core development » Class naming scheme » 2011-02-28 20:29:14
- Franz
I would probably go with something like that. And in my opinion, PHP 5.3 (aka namespaces etc.) is not yet an option.

I'd probably suggest putting another <pun_include> tag inside the <head> area of every template that you want to modify (keep in mind that some styles define their own templates and thus overwrite the default).
