things to do:
* clean up pages and registration [done]
* add more registration options e.g. forum admin username etc [done]
* add flood join control [done]
* make subdomains with a - work [done]
* see what happens with avatars - they didn't... fixed by prefixing with forum subdomain [done]

* do about page

* test it all
* get users wink


Future stuff:
* make admin controls for me, disable regisration, list and delete tables for a forum
* look at 1.2 (caching etc)
* look at making custom tpls, styles (maybe shove them in another folder and prefix with subdomain name then say if exists use custom one otherwise use standard)
* make a mypunbbig (e.g. a punbig for all the sites on mypunbb.com)

Just wondering, can your server handle all the hits, loads and traffic?

in 1.2 i'm going to add some stuff i'm thinking about your own style and your own template, and all it does is create a file subdomain_main.tpl then if thaty exists for your subdomain it uses it, if not it just uses the default, however for now thats gonna have to wait

each forum has there own styles. (yes, this would be huge if this gets big, but still somewhat good). then thee is an admin option that will just use fopen, fread, and fwrite to checge the styles.

same with the templates.

maybe also have a backup, incase the user screws something up, he can restore the original one.


great work connorhd!

Curious- one install per subdomain...??

This is easy with Plesk (as opposed to cPanel)- only need to create a subdomain and it does all work for you. Each subdomain gets its own httpdocs setup...sweet....

i don't want to have to setup the subdomains though i want it to be automated so i wanted all subdomains to be setup, also a cool idea gary suggested is that all sites that aren't registed (say you go to middleground.mypunbb.com right now) would give you the registration form wink

cPanel needs to catch up.

but he got it to work anyway, contacted the host and he did it

and yes, its one install per sub domain, but there are only 1 set of files.

For all that still dont understand, you register, you get a forum name, such as http://gary.mypunbb.com and you post!
