Re: Wave Federation Protocol Integration (API)

I think basing the phpBB software to run waves is not a very good idea. In this implementation you just introduce a new wave server which is merely a categorized collections of waves, extracted from different wave servers. I think to integrate Google wave within the forum it is better to allow the p...

Re: AJAX, jQuery, et. al.

When replacing confirmation pages you do have to think of where you want to redirect people For example, if you post a reply, you are returned to the topic viewing your reply. However when you post a new topic, the current system allows you to either return to the forum, or view the topic you just p...

Re: phpBB 3.2 Discussion

Concerning the permissions system.

If you run multiple boards, an export/import feature for the roles would be nice.
That way you could create your roles on your board one, and when you set up board to, simply import your roleset and you can quickly go on creating your second(and more) boards.

Re: Style development?

I don't believe, that the Dev Team is going to certify any community-made templates. It would take too much time, which could be spent on improving phpBB itself. I think he means that the skin will pass our submission guidelines(the check we do before styles are released, to make sure they 'work' b...

Re: Old phpBB 3 versions

THere have also been some changes, mostly to the ACP, I remember downloading a CVS version, where the ACP layout, still looked like the old phpBB 2.0.x layout, where it had a navigation frame on the left and a main content frame.
New tabbed layout works much better

Re: Field widths via CSS

Thanks for the reply. Do you have the section of the css that I would need to modify? Positioning of content elements is done in content.css file. there you should look for the topiclist classes. After editing your css, you do need to refresh your CSS into the database via ACP -> Styles -> Themes -...

Re: Field widths via CSS

It’s a matter or presentation, and depending on the density of the text, you will always have some white space, the question is where are you going to place it? I think that most people try to balance a web page, spreading the information as equally as possible across the entire page. So either peo...

Re: Image size - from where?

Image sizes are set in a config file, the config file data is stored within the database.

WHat you need to do is go to:
styles/prosilver/imageset/imageset.cfg
then, adjust dimensions there.
THen go to your ACP -> Styles -> Imagesets
Then hit the refresh link of the prosilver imageset.
