what are disadvantages of fulltext search .... i mean it is used in vb and its fast on boards that have more then 1 million users ....
here is what vb search use:
Search Type
vBulletin supports two types of search indexing. Fulltext searching uses a search index that is constructed by MySQL itself, whereas vBulletin's own search feature uses its own index.
You set the search type here:
Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> Search Type
By default, vBulletin will use its internal indexing feature. The results of this indexing process is stored in two tables, word and postindex. This provides a fast search mechanism but can cause problems on larger forums due to the ever increasing size of these tables. Each unique word is indexed in the word table and each occurrence of the word is indexed in the postindex table. To get around the large amount of space these tables can occupy we implemented MySQL Fulltext Search. The search type screen allows you to switch between the two of these. It is a simple toggle so submitting the screen switches between the two modes.
When switching a forum to the fulltext search mode, you will want to consider emptying the indices that the default search engine built. These indices are not used by the fulltext search and consume a large portion of your database. You should be certain that you are going to permanently use the fulltext search before removing these indices since, generally, it takes a lot of time and server load to rebuild these indices. Another consideration is during any time that the fulltext option is enabled, these indices will not be updated by any new posts. Using fulltext search for an extended period of time will leave these indices stale and you may still wish to rebuild them.
Note:
The minimum and maximum length of words to be indexed is defined by the ft_min_word_len and ft_max_word_len system variables (available as of MySQL 4.0.0). The default minimum value is four characters. The default maximum depends on your version of MySQL. If you change either value, you must rebuild your FULLTEXT indexes. For example, if you want three-character words to be searchable, you can set the ft_min_word_len variable by putting the following lines in an option file:
[mysqld]
ft_min_word_len=3
Then restart the server and rebuild your FULLTEXT indexes. Also note particularly the remarks regarding myisamchk in the instructions following this list.

You can also empty these indices in the Update Counters section of Maintenance.
You may want to optimize the postindex and word tables afterwards by going to the Repair / Optimize Tables section of Maintenance.
lol thats my site ...
look at the megapun files ... copy that to ur css ...
what systems are used in phpbb or vb or smf or ipb ...
just asking

so maintaince in 1.3 is only used for closing the forum temperaly
thanks
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
i changed hosting today and found this error:
Fatal error: SUHOSIN - Use of preg_replace() with /e modifier is forbidden by configuration in /home/iman/public_html/sportstv.co.cc/include/parser.php(442) : regexp code on line 442
wooo ...this is intense .. did u guys found the volunbrity yet
can you put all the updates with the extension in a file and post it in punres
another thing about maintaince ... in beta 1.3 when you turn on the maintance mode .... where is the button that index the posts ... 100 posts at a time etc ...
Smartys wrote:SuperMAG: It will not be the only feature in 1.4. There is no roadmap at this point for what will be in 1.4, just a few ideas that we've pushed there. When it is released, it will be just as big a change as 1.3: hence bumping to 1.4 instead of 1.3.1.
yea as i thought so ... that will be good ...
is there a way that the title of the topic is placed a meta description ....

Do you have any idea of how many possible bugs or unexpected consequences a single item can have? That's the point of new releases. To incorporate new features when, AND ONLY WHEN, they have been fully designed, implemented and tested.
i know still they can test it in 1.3 ... no much need for big version like 1.4 ... i mean look at the difference between 1.2 and 1.3 ...
pedrotuga wrote:SuperMAG, I think you haven't realized that you (nor anybody) are not entitled to make demands on the dev team. The closer thing you can do is suggestions.
And please, don't hijack this topic you guys 
Smartys, i think you got me wrong, i was probably not so clear in the details.
I suggested that the feeds would have no more authentication than any other forum page. Basically only browser based feed readers would catch those feeds.
Like, when you show a viewtopic, I guess punbb uses php's session system to check user's permission, as far as I know sessions rely on cookies.
The only thing i suggested is to extend the user authentication check to the feed generator script. That should not be a lot of work and it would be very practical for some people, like me.
i am not making any demands ... they are free on what ever they do ... all the posts i do in these cases are suggestions ... and i dont know what you mean by hijacking etc. ...
Smartys wrote:pedrotuga: It can be an extension. If we're going to implement a system, it will be a more robust one, one that can be used without needing browser / RSS reader integration. 
MattF: I don't see what's so bad about the change, other than that the need to login is non-obvious.
SuperMAG: If you don't understand why major versions exist and why we don't have an endless development cycle for 1.3 (although it may seem that way it times ), which seems to be the case, please just accept what you have been told in this topic and stop asking about it.
what ever
MattF wrote:SuperMAG wrote:i just wanted to say why dont they apply features in 1.3 rather to apply it in 1.4 ........ if you have future plans ...
If they did that, 1.3, nor any other release, would ever get released. Plus, one can but hope that something like that *never* makes it into core.

Stop being a drama queen. Something like the aforementioned setup has the ability to bollocks your restrictions the first time some muppet puts their feed link on a public system, and they will, without fail.
what drama crap ...
what ever ..... i didnt even understand the feed stuff that the member asked ... i just wanted to say why dont they apply features in 1.3 rather to apply it in 1.4 ........ if you have future plans ...
its not good when you ask for a feature you say it will be in 1.3 ... and after that you will say it will be in 1.4 ... you guys know that upgrading from one version to another is pain in the brain ...
1.4 ... what is going on ... i thought we are on 1.3 ... why guys dont you guys put the things of 1.4 in 1.3 ... why just wait for another thing ... this is alittle annoying

I noticed that you're porting my themes for punBB quite freely. I do not have an issue with this but I DO expect you to ask permission when doing so. ALL my work is copyrighted and is not GPL. You also need to ask my permission to release the work. Please contact me regarding this matter over at http://phpfusion-themes.com - You are also not crediting me for my work and this I take very, very seriously.
Thanks

oppss its my foult bingiman ... i realy wanted that style and didnt thought you will be converting it ... so i asked hem ... didnt know about the copyrighed or GPL stuff ... sorry

yes i know ... i was talking about extensions too
elbekko wrote:If the database needs upgrading, and the extension author specified upgrading code in the manifest, it'll be done. Else everything will be untouched apart from the hook code, which will simply be updated.
ok thanks ... that i wanted to know ...
but should there be notes for extension producers to these measures before releasing an extension ...
why not make it as an option for extensions ...
i mean if the browser support it then it should work as it is ajax
but if it doesnt support it ... it should go throught normal type... for example
like quick edit .. if the browser support ajax then it should go to ajax mode ...but if it dosen then the page should go to full edit type

Bad HTTP_REFERER. If you have moved these forums from one location to another or switched domains, you need to update the Base URL manually in the database (look for o_base_url in the config table) and then clear the cache by deleting all .php files in the /cache directory.
Can anyone tell me how to get into the database to changfe it manually?
yours in anticipation
Huey
wow that was exat thing that happened to me once ...
i think the solution is to go and edit config.php and there will be base url .. just change it ...
i am not sure about that ... so let some one else reply first
elbekko wrote:To upgrade it, you only have to go to install extensions, and then click the Install link. It'll upgrade the extension. There's no need to uninstall it first.
what if you have a table in your db in the first version of the extension ... but you removed it in the second version or placed it some where else ...
will that upgrade your db too ...
if so then thats Great
shouldnt there be upgrade button next ot disible and unistall ... you need upgrade you extension when new version is realeased but in the current dev you unistall it and install it again in which all the sittings of that extension are gone .... there are some extension that have alooot of sittings like for example portal extension by daris in which for example you have 100 pages .. you will need to enter 100 pages again ... this is insane ...
this is also not for extension ... this must be in core because if you used it as in extension there will be plenty of same extension for that purpose and the upgrade methotd will be different for every extension ...
so it must be in core ...
i like the way that the dev are updating db .. i mean the db_update file ... take the db related code from that and use the daris extension for refresh hooks ... so with that it also updates both db and the hooks ...
thanks and waiting for you posts ... so what you think

He's right. The point was I've yet to try PunBB, I just hope it's not gonna fail where phpBB has let me down.
ok then us your suggestions clearly .. not some phpbb whatever ...
