Re: 1.3 mod conversion roll call

Is there going to be a tutorial on how to do it? Because right now I don't have a clue.

Re: 1.3 mod conversion roll call

Is that your wishlist? big_smile

Re: 1.3 mod conversion roll call

Yep, these are the mods used in Mega Pun so it just makes sense to me. big_smile

Re: 1.3 mod conversion roll call

Re: 1.3 mod conversion roll call

I actually don't get what you mean. Why does having extensions make Mega Pun obsolete? I think you guys are missing the point of Mega Pun when all it is are mods added to punBB, nothing more, nothing less. I hope someone can enlighten me as to how the extension differ. Does this mean that no core files will ever need to be edited? If that's the case, then that would be awesome!

Yes, that's the idea of extensions, no need to touch core code.

Plugins, extensions or whatever you want to call it have been around CMS and Blogs for some time now. I can pop a plugin into Textpattern to add extra functionality, said plugin still works on subsequent updates to the core, no need to futz with diff files, etc.

Now what you've done with Mega Pun is to make sure that all these mods behave together, thus making it a testing stage for plugins. I have it running in XAMPP, to see what mods I like.

Well, great to hear. I knew it served a purpose. big_smile

I've been working on a filebased download mod, it's almost finished. But when will the mod make tool for 1.3 be released?

Jansson,

Is there any chance you will re-write the EVE Online mod for 1.3.
