Development Discussion Board

Because unique fields forces the user to enter a phrase, one field simply allows it. With one field, you can't force an entire forum to follow.

Well, the basic idea behind pass phrases are that they're just as hard to crack via brute force, but much easier to remember for people. Remembering "$php33foru*mp@a$$" is much harder than "phpbb forum awesome blossom".

I suppose I feel it is more intuitive.

When the user registers, they'll be prompted for a "pass phrase." How do they know to enter a space? How do you validate they didn't run a word together they meant to keep separate? To me, the easiest and most intuitive solution is to have 4 input boxes under ...

From a UI perspective, my ideal scenario would be:

1) You use the regular password, it looks as it does currently.

2) You use the multi-word password, there are four input fields for each word.

3) You use the combination option, there is an input field labeled "Password", and then four input ...

I think phpbb should move to support multi-word passwords. A simple shift would make it exponentially harder for passwords to be compromised. Even the best passwords ($dfk289@*1%) aren't anywhere near as strong as a multi-word password (blue funny dog barks). Even better would be a password + multi ...

I'm worried about my board as it is approaching 900,000 posts. Hopefully converting will go smoothly, I plan to try when RC 1 is released.

I run my site on a dedicated server.

I have many databases, all of them are seperate but still all in the same phpmyadmin.

I am not sure if my host would run a repair on the tables, if they would even know how to do so.

What do you need to know to take a look at it? phpmyadmin username and ...

While browsing around in the operations tab of the forum's database I found this:

this is what happened when I ran the query you gave me on the forum's database:

SQL-query&#58
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS phpbb_sessions;# MySQL returned an empty result set (i.e. zero rows).
CREATE TABLE phpbb_sessions(
session_id varchar( 32 ) NOT NULL default '',
session_user_id mediumint( 8 ) NOT ...

Server has been reset, now getting a similar but different error message on the portal:

Could not query categories list
