I wanted to know if anyone could clear something up for me about this. I know that when your site is crawled it only crawls so much on your content. So I believe its first 5 divs? Anyway I was informed by someone that substituting <div class=""> with html 5's <section class=""> allows you to still pull the same information from your stylesheet but the crawler will skip over them. Is this true and if not is there something that you can do to skip certain areas more less. Below is an example of what i mean by this as well
Example:
<div>
<div>
<section>
<section>
<section>
<div>
<div>
<div>
Basically in this example im showing that on my page i use 2 divs first. This would be the first 2 things that are crawled. Next im showing that if i would substitute the next 3 divs with the html 5's <section> those 3 parts would be skipped and the crawler would then start crawling those last 3 divs.
Is this correct?

I just wanted to point out what I think was just overlooked. On your wiki you states:
For this purpose, this wiki is split up into four sections covering the most important administrative and other tasks.
But in this post you state:
Right now we are planning on splitting up the guide into five main sections.
Should the site match to five as there are five categories listed below it?

When in your CSS the path to the image is relative to your CSS file. When in the HTML the path to the image is relative to your HTML file. Is that the correct path?
yes it is the correct path. I tested to be sure.
And paul I have 6 total boxes I will be displaying and all have a different image. So are you suggesting that I make a total of 6 total classes so each one has its own then. If so thats what I am currently using.
Also thanks for the help both of you.

Alright I am making a site and i have run into a problem.
when I use this code in my style sheet:
.left_block {
background:url(../img/style/icon.gif) no-repeat left top;
float:left;
width:390px;
}
and this code in my index file:
<div class="left_block">
content here.
</div>
the image is displayed which is what I want. but i have to use multiple left blocks that are going to be using different images for each block so im trying to use this method below.
In my style sheet I have:
.left_block {
float:left;
width:390px;
}
then in my index I have:
<div class="right_block" style="background:url(../img/style/icon.gif) no-repeat left top;">
content here.
</div>
Only problem is that the image doesnt display. Im not sure as to why so I am asking if anyone could explain to me please.
I have tested other things such as just using like style="border:1px solid #000;" and that works correctly so why not this background line?
Thanks to anyone and everyone who helps.

well ventrilo can only support up to 8 clients anyway if you dont have a license. Second you can chat live in the chatroom as well so really you don't need a mic.

Having a review team for each language, which can mark a single string (or a file) as reviewed would be great.
Wouldn't it be smart to make the people they put in charge of the support forums to also be responsible for final reviews? Just an idea.

You can add almost anything you want. Eventually there will be many extentions which you can use on your board. But if you mean just in the core then it would be best to just check out an installation of the board itself.

I don't think anyone is asking for firm deadlines or daily updates -- just a general idea of how things are going on occasion (e.g. % completed), along with what challenges remain. This isn't a huge request.
well then here you go...
Ok. We're 99% done with the core, 99% done with the markup and 66% done with the CSS.
(Note that all these numbers are fictional but may resemble the truth.)

yea but if your trying to state something which is indeed an opinion there is no need to argue about it. Everyone is entitled to there own opinion.

you should just close this thread. Its getting no where and at the the main point of this thread was useles as well. Just my opinion but it would be for the better before things get out of hand.

With all that said would it wise to remove it completely and make an extention for those who like the feature or make an option in the admin board settings to turn on and off moderated by settings?

I recommend either Slicehost or Linode. I have used both and both are great. Love their IRC channels (#slicehost@freenode, #linode@OFTC). They have been around for sometime and are greatly recommended by others too.
Watch out for the likes of RapidVPS. They have quite a restrictive ToS (E.g. No IRC connections).
thanks but this was over a month ago..

Most people don`t pay much attention, see a box type submit. Those are also the type of people who are prone to "misusing" the report button.
irmikeyb wrote:Really I can't see how there are many options to use this differently.
One example is members being encoraged to use the button to report dead download links that users have posted, an admin then closes or edits the title of the topic. You then get people doing that on other boards and they also see fit to use the report button for support instead of posting in the forum.
I`ve seen this first hand, on both my forums and others. There are numerous other things it can be used for awell, it just depends on the subject of your forums.
Whether there`s an option in the core or an extention or neither, doesn`t matter personaly because for me it`s easy to disable. I do think in the grand scheme of things it would be a good option to have though.
Alright but still a good extention not core. Obviously all my posts are IMO as well.

As right now I see little need for disabling this feature in any type of boards? But then again what I think doesn't matter
In my case, it's a usability issue: running a private board with not too computer-savvy users, I continuously encounter users clicking "Report" while they actually wanted to use the adjacent "Quote" link - despite friendly reminders what each link actually does ...
After you hit report ther is a second page that they are taken to which if a user can't relize that they didnt click quote after being taken to that page they shouldn't own a computer...
Also with the argument someone made about some people think it is used for the same reason on all boards doesnt sound like a good excuse either as the report button is for reporting a post/topic. Thats why it was made thats what its there for. Really I can't see how there are many options to use this differently. The only real option you have is to tell people to report posts only if good or to only report if bad. And if you think about it what good does telling people to report good posts do as no one but the administration gets to see this which makes this not very helpful at all.

What is an actual good reason to add a feature to remove the report button? If you have a private board that has no "noise" then there shouldn't be a reason to remove it. This feature to me would be better as an enable/disable feature only is someone is abusing the feature. Disabling this feature for a place it wouldn't be used anyway would create less of a load now would it? Or am I missing something?
So my opinion unless im missing something is this would be better defined as an extention? As right now I see little need for disabling this feature in any type of boards? But then again what I think doesn't matter

I cant remember if beta2 creats the config file for you or not but if it didnt did you create a config.php file like it instructs and upload it to your directory /test? and also did you set the base url to /test without a trailing / after the work test.
