Topic: Disable logout for admin when in maintenance mode

Stupidly, I wondered what the message would look like when board was in maintenance mode.  So i logged out which was a big mistake, to re-enable the board again I had to manually change the o_maintenance flag to 0 both in the database and /cache. smile

Re: Disable logout for admin when in maintenance mode

what problem? Its not a problem with punbb, that people aren't too smart and don't read the instructions.

Re: Disable logout for admin when in maintenance mode

accidents DO happen Connor, but i do agree that people need to read instructions a bit more than the norm. maybe a warning page to pop up and ask if you are sure you want to log out.

It's really an easy thing to add so I don't see why not.

It would be a good idea to add it, and we wouldn't get as many complaints about this.

The converse could be true, when developers arn't smart enough to code....

Re: Disable logout for admin when in maintenance mode

That is a completely pointless statement and not the converse of what i said at all. Furthermore, it doesn't really make any sense.

Then no code will be written wink

Either way, Rickard is a smart person from what I've seen of him, and there is some scripts there in the extras forlder for those not able to read some simple instructions ...
