So the script was able to create the folder but not write to it?  That seems strange.  See if you can find out what the current security is on the folder...  or delete it completely and have the script make a new folder.

karinne - It looks like the mod just needs the permissions to be set correctly on the folder at

'/home/web/ca/widowswalk/www/forums/files/24d932528896ab955112e3484c661692'

It's got to be able to write to that directory.

Just chmod that folder to something open like 777 and try it out.  If it works then you know that was the problem.

(you'll want to chmod that directory back to a resonable level once you get it all working)

This seems to work...

In post.php I change:

    // If the user is logged in we get the username and e-mail from $pun_user
    if (!$pun_user['is_guest'])
    {
        $username = $pun_user['username'];
        $email = $pun_user['email'];
    }

to

    // If the user is logged in we get the username and e-mail from $pun_user
    if (!$pun_user['is_guest'])
    {
        $username = $pun_user['realname'];
        $email = $pun_user['email'];
    }

Did I mess something else up?

I've been messing with this a little more tonight, and I just can't seem to get any results.  I am not very good with PHP so I'm really just shooting in the dark. 

What I'm afraid of is that I've used enough mods and such that my board won't respond right to things like this.

If one of you has any time at all to look into this effort to store real name rather then username I would appreciate it.

Thank you again for your help.

Thanks Frank.  I gave it a go with the query you mentioned set to false and had the same result. 

I only did it to the line that you show in your post.  Is there more places where I should make the edit?

nope...  no error messages.

for what is't worth, the one topic that does show up is, in fact, displaying the realname rather then username.

Thanks again for your help..  it's still doing the same thing.  It just shows the first forum (and the first topic) and thats it...

no idea why.

Thanks anyway for your help.

I've installed all kinds of mods, so it doesn't surprise me that it doesn't play nice.  If you get a chance can you check this out and let me know if you find why that mod wouldn't work.

I really do appreciate the help.

Here is my index.php

Thanks for your input pogenwurst... but when I make these modifications all my topics dissapear.  I don't know enough to know why thats happeneing.  when I restore the original version everything comes back.

do you know why that would be?

Sorry to dig up a really old thread.  Just wondering if this mod works on the newest version of punbb (1.2.12)

and is there any chance someone could take a screenshot of the results page?  I'd just like to see what it looks like.

Currently the 'last_poster' field for both forums and topics is populated with the username. 

Can can someone help me find the line I need to change to make this pull the 'realname' field (if present)?

ok sorry I was totally in the wrong way

I never use this feature and I see what you mean now wink I'll see what I can do.

Were you ever able to move this any futher?

BTW You're mod is running great, and quite popular on my forum.

There actually already is a link (bottom left of index) for users to see what topics they are subscribed to.    It only shows results for topics that are subscribed.

It would be great if this link would also display subscribed forums.  Not at all urgent... just one of those little things that would help the user manage subscriptions.

Awesome!  This is wonderful. 

Now the last bit to edit is the list that shows up with a user clicks "Show your subscribed topics".  Since forum titles don't show up in that list either.

This has been a wonderful thing for my users.  They've been asking for this feature since the biginning.  Thank you Thank you Thank you!

Hi binou,  Any chance you had some time to look at this?

I would love to at least be able to see what forums and topics are being subscribed to.  I'm using pluging that never had an acutal release, I just found it in another thread.  It's exactly what I need, but I have no idea how to make it pull forum names as well as topic names. 

Can you give it a look and see what edits would be needed to make it pull both kinds of subscriptions?

I'm using this:

I don't know much about how this all works, but I wanted to ask.

Is it possible to present users with a progess bar while their files are uploading?

Actually, what I'm looking for is even simpler then that.  I would just like to know what forums & topics are being subscribed to.  Just a list would be fine.

the icing on the cake would be to have the option to subscribe/unsubscribe a user from both forums and topics from the admin.

This is wonderful.  I'm using it on 1.2.11.

Any chance you'd be up to making an admin pluging to manage subscriptions for users?  If not manage... at least see what topics & forums users are subscribed to?

Connorhd did you ever relese that as a plugin?  I'm using it as it is right now.  Just wanted to see if it went further.

I had the same problem few weeks ago so in a first time I have broken the guest restriction of the extern.php in order to allow my users to read feeds... it works fine but I guess you will understand that it is absolutely not recommanded as every body would so be able to read forums posts with the feeds !!

How did you do this?  I would totally use it as an interum solution.

sounds good.  I'll look forward to those updates.

The one thing that I would love to see has been mentioned before, and thats a slicker option for multiple uploads.  The image attachment mod has a great way of letting the user select the number of upload slots needed.  But that is JS. 

anyway, great mod.  Thanks for all your work.

WONDERFUL.  I've just added a post to that thread.

I love RSS, but it just sounds so complicated to get 401 auth to work.  At least for me, I'm a total PHP novice.
