Development Discussion Board

My modification also adds a tooltip to display the full topic title on hover, which is how this board works. That feature is not in the KB, and it's why a line is being added in includes/functions_display.php as opposed to being replaced . I also increased the cutoff length to a more usable 24 chara...

Guys, is there a quick hack I can use to integrate this into a live forum while the final code is being straightened out? Find this line in includes/functions_display.php : 'LAST_POST_SUBJECT' => censor_text($last_post_subject), Directly under it, add this line: 'LAST_POST_DDSUBJECT' => (utf8_strle...

You really do not joke with that solution? It is not scallable, testable, maintanable... really, it is not solution for me... You mean you don't understand it, because it is all the things you mentioned. This comment is telling: As per JS part of phpBB has already changed, AJAX was added and jQuery...

When the button is clicked, change the text_name variable to what you want, then call the bbfontstyle() (or whatever) function, and then restore the variable before returning control to the user.

No need to alter the editor script...well, at least for this purpose.

I see it as a narrow focus. There can sometimes be a fine line between having a narrow focus and being elitist, but I don't think that's the case here.

Google Groups seems to operate quite a large number of "forums". They're not "forums", they're newsgroups, which are very different than forums on a phpBB board. The fact that Google Groups sends out email reply notifications is irrelevant to how things work (or potentially shou...

Sit the old lady from across the street down and ask her to try to register at this forum -- with no help. See if she can figure out the code name for a specific version of this software. If she can't, then it's excluding some people. Note the site description above: phpBB's testing ground of bleed...

I'm not a fan of outset box shadows on elements, though I suspect they would look really good on the poll bars.

Instead, I would use inset box shadows on selected elements. Here's an example:

For whatever reason, both Webkit and Gecko chose to set CSS resize of textarea elements to a default of both , which is against the definition of the CSS resize property (default should be none ). The CSS I posted above will give textarea elements the proper default value. Yet no real good reason h...

The reason one can't resize the width is because there is CSS in place which sets the width. In addition, Webkit will respect the rows/cols attributes and not allow resizing to anything less than those calculated values. Gecko ignores the (outdated) rows/cols attributes. For whatever reason, both We...
