Or not, since we have a helper function designed so that tables should never again be generated like that.

I know what it refers to, I was just saying that because it is used in lots of places, it could be set as a constant.
Technically I suppose we could, but FORUM_FIRST_USER_ID doesn't really have much meaning. It's part of why we removed FORUM_MEMBER and made the group deletable: there was no reason to force the group to exist.

I think for access controls, the web server is ideal here.

Take a look at how Wordpress does it, for example. They do add a login form for pages where you might want one, but it isn't on every page; it's only on the pages where you would want to authenticate.

Yes, simply replace your files with the ones from SVN and run db_update.php

Paul won't necessarily remove the status icons, he might simply try to make it easier for people to use images as status icons.

As those of you who have been following FluxBB's development progress have seen, we have unfortunately not been able to make our deadline for the Beta 3 release. Real life has caught up to all the members of the development team in various unexpected ways, which has led to final work not being committed to the repository. We are very sorry that we have been unable to meet the deadline we promised.
Many of the features that we planned for the beta have been committed to the repository, but some of the most significant, including the markup revisions, have not yet been completed. Rather than releasing Beta 3 now, without those features, we have decided to take a different approach. At the request of many users, we will not be releasing Beta 3 at this point. Instead, we will be linking users to our SVN repository to download and play with all of the features we have at this point. When we are finished, we will release Beta 3 with all the fanfare it deserves.
You can download the current revision using this link
Edit: An issue with the database schema in the link above has been discovered. The issue affects searching and special characters. Anyone who has installed/who will install a NEW copy of 1.3 using it should be sure to download db_update.php and run it. Upgrades from the previous beta or from 1.2 are not affected.

But! Please dont give deadlines in the future. I wouldnt mind so much but it is really not required and personally I think it makes Flux look bad. Im guessing a deadline was something that rickard would of stopped.Deadlines are always difficult. People always ask for them, since just having releases randomly pop up can be difficult. Developers always find them difficult to follow, since there always seems to be more stuff to do, distractions that get in the way, etc.
I don't think the solution is to abandon deadlines. Without deadlines, we might as well be in an endless loop of adding new features and testing them. That was part of the reason we put a deadline in for this release: so we would have a feature freeze at a given point and from then on work on polishing the code, fixing bugs, etc. What we need to do, however, is to be more accountable for our deadlines. We need to be more proactive in making sure we meet them.That being said, I found out I won't be here in 3 hours, when I was supposed to "release" the beta. That, coupled with the fact that people have been asking me not to release until we have the markup, which is one of the most important changes in the beta, means I'm simply going to be providing a link to download the current revision without releasing it as the beta. Once we have the markup in place, we'll release the beta for real.

delete from posts where message LIKE "%word%"Keep in mind that it will delete any post containing that string anywhere in it. So, if I tried deleting the word "the", I would also delete posts with the word "there".
You then have to rebuild the search index.
#1513 Re: Core development » Login form on main site » 2008-06-03 16:03:05

Why? The front page doesn't have any content that changes when you login. There also doesn't seem to be any place to put it.

Could you give me a little more example code of what you're trying to do?
#1515 Re: General support (1.2) » two problem .... » 2008-06-03 16:01:27
- Smartys
So you want to delete all the posts containing a certain word?
And the change to login.php was to change sha1 to pun_hash, since the way to hash something in PunBB/FluxBB 1.2 is to use the pun_hash function, not sha1. pun_hash allows for the use of md5 for versions of PHP that do not support sha1.

Yup. If constants exist, you should be using them.

The second one: does this answer it?

Do you want me to take a look at this/come up with a patch based on the current markup, or wait until you finish the admin markup?
#1521 Re: Programming » AND/OR question » 2008-06-03 13:36:36

1. says "If the forum is hidden AND (the topic creator is not the current user OR the user is not an administrator/moderator), then show the error"
2. says "If the forum is hidden AND the topic creator is not the current user AND the user is not an administrator/moderator, then show the error"
So 2 is correct: error will be called only if all three are true.
You should be using constants/variables more though (eg: > PUN_MOD).
#1522 Re: General support (1.2) » BULK Removing "moved" links from all forums via DB / SQL command » 2008-06-03 10:35:27
- Smartys
select id from prefixtopics where moved_to is not null and last_posted < UNIX_TIMESTAMP() - 604800where prefix is your database prefix.
That should get a list of the topic IDs. Then, you just have to change it into a delete using the same where clause.
And it is not dangerous, unless you mix up "is not null" and "is null" in which case you'll delete actual topics.

We can modify the add form so that we use the same form for adding and editing, just like we do for user groups.

The form is supposed to be simple. Therefore, it accepts a minimal amount of information: the name of the forum, the category it should go in, and the position.
