As per others ... there was no involved I can't force peeps to take a board, certainly when I'm no longer involved in the project As it goes a compromise deal has been decided which means lots of work for me (hum ho) but at least we'll be using a "hybrid" of phpBB2 and phpBB "3".xdarkday wrote: Im really not sure if this was a joke.
As for inheritance ... far from adding complexity it does the reverse. None of this copying "roles" business (which is after all a more "capable" version of the original presets). Click a checkbox and all subfora have the same permisions and continue to inherit those permissions upon any change to the parent. So effectively you can end up changing just one foras permissions.

So who does the documentation for all these features? Whoever writes it should do a through, clear job, since the new Olympus permissions system is so much more complex than 2.0.x's perm system.

Re: errors ...
I assumed that was probably the case. Nothing like a good staff of Technical Writers to put an edge on the phpBB manual. I've read through the phpBB2.0.x manual several times. Good stuff for newbies (like I once was)dhn wrote:There is a dedicated team for this.Dog Cow wrote: So who does the documentation for all these features?

Actually 2.0.x manual was written by James "theFinn" Atkinson while he was on a bad cheese trip. He didn't ever remember writing it afterwards. To this day he calls it his "best Leerdammer trip ever" and is still recovering from it. Why do you think we don't let him do stuff any more? Just last week he tried to trade Berties for a few kilograms of Mimolette.Dog Cow wrote: I assumed that was probably the case.
