loooookin good, but a couple of ques...

Post by nickweb »

Boards lookin HOT.. but, iv got a couple of questions for ya... First off, because there is gunna be some db changes, will there be an upgrade script avlible? or will this be a major implemtation meanin a whole new install?

2nd up, i was looking throught the boardm and one guy got banned.. (coulndt stop askin for support lol), his "karma" was low. and i had to click the link to display the message.. jus one wee questoin,, instead of clickin the link once for every message, can we click it just once to view al the messages?

and third off,

when registering, i got the message USERNAME_TAKEN .. looks like that needs some friendly text. lol..

keep up the good work, and if u want a lazy guy to walk around and occasionally make tea, u can count me on board! lol.

Please, no bug reports or feature requests at this point.

And yes, of course there will be an upgrade script.
Need good web hosting? I recommend Hostrocket.

That is a good idea, and im sure they will do that or something similar.

It completely baffles me why people even ask this question...

phpBB1.4.x to 2.0.x "converter" -> http://www.phpbb.com/documents.php?mode ... upgrade1.x" target="_blank
Other BBS to phpBB2.0.x -> http://www.phpbb.com/downloads.php#converters" target="_blank

... so no, there's wouldn't be a "converter"/upgrade from 2.0.x to 2.2, as and when it's done.

That'd sound tad daft don't you think?

The link specifies viewing just that hidden/ignored post, so by virtue, clicking that link should only work as it does now.

Perhaps there should be a complimentay link where it unignores all posts by that user.

It's pre-alpha, not all the language strings are inplace.
