Re: [RFC] Attachments in subfolders

but a single mechanism that is always used should be enough. Which one would you prefer?
My personal opinion:
the folder should have a limited "lifetime", so after a defined point (date or number of files) no more files go in that folder. It makes it easier to have complete backups of a folder.
so ...

Re: [RFC] Attachments in subfolders

For performance reasons, you're best off keeping the field as a varchar. Especially because I'm having trouble seeing a use case where strlen(directory name(s) + 32 char hash) > 255 Yes, your right, i just wanted to show a possible risk.
But, when looking at the way thumbnail file names are build ...

Re: Signature Preview by Default

Isn't it the same behaviour as the preview button on "normal" posting?

So, if there sometimes will be a WYSIWYG-editor for posting, this editor can also be used for the signature. In this case, is there still a need for a preview button (except for fallback reason) or a live preview?

An extra ...

Re: [feature-request]:[s]code for text strike through by def

As an html replacement we could use one of this:

<del>STRIKE 1</del>
<s>STRIKE 2</s>
<strike>STRIKE 3</strike>
Probably you will go with <strike> as you've chosen to go with <strong> instead of <b> for the bold..
strike and s were deprecated a very long time ago. Why would strike be chosen ...

Re: Suggestion

How often does it happen you have to open a new subforum? Once a month? Once a week? Once a day? Every hour?

What is the big benefit of your suggestion? You can give an moderator administrator-privileges without changing the rank or main group. Just create a hidden group in acp and give some admin-privileges to it. At the second, assign this group to the person you ...

Re: Attachment subfolders

I know this topic is a few days old ;)
I would really like to see this feature added in a future release, because currently we have more than 70,000 files in the file-folder (we force our members to use the attachment-function instead of using external hosted images), the board is up now for 2 1/2 ...
