If it's something new, let it be FORUM I say, no need for more references to pun.

Aha, it was in 1.3 we changed it to a constant.

#3 Re: General support (1.4 / 1.5) » Character count in posts? » 2009-08-17 00:08:50

Yes, it's limited by the database. You could change the message field to MEDIUMTEXT, and along with that either a constant in common.php or the check in post.php (I can't remember which one it is, sorry).

For one, the server is sending it as JPEG.

And why on earth would you use BMP?

Indeed, that's probably the best thing to do.

I suppose it would be nice to have, the community might find it useful. I suggest you just pack it up and post it in the 1.4 forum.

The base URL is in the config table in the database, as was the case in 1.2. Set it manually and clear the cache files.

On that note, the upgrade script should probably take care of that.

fluxbb-1.4-beta2 tag or changeset 1094.

1.4 isn't far off, beta 2 should appear one of these days. After that we'll provide support and bugfixes for 1.4, and seriously think 2.0 through before we start on anything.

#10 Re: Core development » 1.4 beta 2 » 2009-08-06 00:33:17

Meh, I'll release it when I can be bothered. If anyone else wants to do it - the scripts are readable and executable by all in my home dir.

Hmm, indeed, only in some places if I remember correctly. Never mind tongue

Well, actually, the CSRF token should already take care of it, it just needs to be caught with the proper message.

Saying how things are under the hood will probably just stir up controversy, but anyway...

There is nobody in charge really. We have a discussion about most things, between the (active) developers and the team.
I haven't seen Connor around in a while. Some time ago I had some contact with him, promising he'd tell me how to use his release script. A bit later I wrote my own because he didn't send anything. I realise he could be very busy, so I'm not blaming anyone here.

The direction the project takes is still largely governed by FluxBB's goals, but I do admit I've put my foot down about a thing or two that smelled like feature creep in 1.4.

#14 Re: Core development » E_ALL Question » 2009-07-29 11:16:56

elbekko

That's because 1.3 is still set up for debugging, and 1.4 isn't tongue

Anyway, you should always initialise your variables, for the sake of good practise and avoiding errors like this (and in the days of register_globals or whatever, security).

#15 Re: Feature requests » Change languages to none PHP files. » 2009-07-22 13:12:21

elbekko

I don't see what's so hard about parsing the language files hmm A very simple regex should be able to handle that (#$(.+?) \= "(.+?)"# or something).

#16 Re: General support (1.2) » Cash logs, i made, i need to pull imgaward :) » 2009-07-21 19:50:39

So you actually managed to make two out of four fields that shouldn't be an int into an int, but not those that actually should be. Congratulations.

Why on earth is everything there a text type?

A thousand DBAs just killed a puppy.

Error supression using @ is also quite slow, if I remember correctly.

Indeed.

I'm not really a fan of adding any more features to 1.4 atm, especially when it comes to permissions etc.

As for the reports, it's a bit of a basic moderation log. But an option in the maintenance section to purge them might be nice.

#22 Re: General support (1.2) » Updated to PHP 5.3.0 and I get Deprecated Problems » 2009-07-18 13:08:38

elbekko

We never claimed Flux to be compatible with PHP5.3, there have been a few big changes which would most likely result in us having to maintain two branches of the same version.

I haven't really been following PHP lately (5.3 was the last straw for me tbh, it's just pissing me off now), so I have no idea what the required changes would be. If someone feels like making a patch that could be nicely integrated into the current versions, feel free to post it.

#24 Re: General support (1.2) » cpu usage » 2009-07-14 12:33:33

elbekko

Unless the site is running on a 486, there must be something else going on still. I just can't see any other possible way a stock FluxBB install generates that much CPU usage.
