[ Closed ] PunBB 1.2.5 (Page 3 of 3)

I've also been a very bad forum admin.  The version I'm running is 1.1.5 -- is there any trick or potential problem to upgrading to 1.2.5?  Or do you think it should go smoothly if I simply follow the directions that come with 1.2.5 for upgrading?

Thanks.  I just read your post again and it makes sense now -- didn't pay enough attention the first time I read it.  What you say to do seems obvious now.

I would think so, I know of a bunch of outstanding "issues" that while they aren't on the level of giving anyone admin access they do give moderators a bit too much power (along with a whole lot of undefined index possibilities I was bored enough to find )

Just the upload folder, and yes, upload the update/upgrade file to the main folder

Hmm, at first I thought you meant that a feature similar to my 'forum subscription' mod had been included in 1.2.5.  If it has, I can't find it.  Forum Subscription (different from topic subscription) allowed a user to be notified when new topics were started in the forum(s) they were subscribed to.  Topic only allows notification of replies...

The reason I use this is that my forum has limited memebership and many simply forget to check the forum.  This way they are notified when.  I also have many users who refuse to use the forum and still rely on our old mailing list system.  For them, I simply created a user with the list's email address and subscribed to all forums.

Anyway, I guess I'll have to dig into the code again...  it's been so long!

/me points to the rss feeds (i know, i know, most people don't want to/know how use them...)

ok finnaly decided to make the upgrade from my 1.2.4 forum to the 1.2.5 code all went fine the only bug i get is the following one

on top of each post i ge the following error message:

 Notice: Undefined index: g_color in /home/vhost/d-vault.peerforces.com/html/forum/viewtopic.php on line 222

here is the line in the viewtopic.php file:

 $username = '<a href="profile.php?id=' . $cur_post['poster_id'] . '"><span style="color:'.$cur_post['g_color'].'">' . pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_post['username']) . '</span></a>';
