Nah, I wouldn't say that, I could write a mod to do it tonight: I'm just at school now so it's harder tongue

Well, since it's MyPunBB, you can't, since you're not hosting the files tongue
All you can do is
A. Talk to Connor and try to convince him to add the subforums mod
B. Go host a PunBB forum on your own webspace smile

OK, then it isn't writing the cache config file
I'll see what I can do in terms of a quick fix smile

Edit: I can't find one, the cache is too well integrated tongue
I mean, it can be done, but it involves changing lines in a bunch of files, and I would want to test it first tongue

That IS the actual index file that's supposed to be there tongue
I think someone needs to make a mod to disable cache tongue

Edit: Does what other files are in the cache folder?

Yes, but it's one less query! big_smile

Checking out admin_ranks.php we could use the ranks cache smile
Same with admin_bans (assuming we change cache.php to use the order clause for it, which is probably a good idea to do anyway)

Oh, and my feature request for caching censoring will just go here too, because it's on topic and I'm sitting at school bored tongue

As Rod said, one good use for this is posts which update themselves from content stored elsehwere e.g. a dynamically updated to do list, bug list or faq.

Yeah, but when I read the post I was thinking about the security implications of mods (and even admins) being able to write arbitrary PHP tongue
The include makes me feel a bit better tongue

The cookie seed should be fine as it is
What you should do is edit include/common.php and enable debug mode and paste the full error here so we can tell you what the exact problem with your database is

Correct: I'm curious though, why in the world would you want someone to be able to run arbitrary PHP on your server?

Aha, found the problem!
You uploaded your files to http://www.ajeepthing.com/forum/upload/
You were supposed to upload the CONTENTS of the upload folder to /forum

I'm in USA (NYC), took me < 1 minute to load: and I have DSL tongue

Like all plugins, it's a simple "upload to the plugins directory" type install smile
And plugins by their very nature affect nothing just by putting them into the directory, and there's no installation.
All it does is what it says it does smile

Change the permissions of all the groups so that they can't use search, and truncate the search tables (oh, and then you'll have to edit the files so that the search table doesn't get filled in when people post).

Well, I found the cause for myself: I had an old CVS version of Olympus installed that I was trying to convert, thinking that it was 2.0.x tongue

And you chose the right database for it, the MySQL user for PunBB has permission on that database, etc?
Edit: I'm having issues as well, and this didn't happenlast time I used the convertor :-/

That's not PunBB, that's the gallery mod.
You need GD with your PHP for it to work

The function checks the images and then caches them, I don't exactly remember where it is but I can certainly dig it up somewhere.
And caching for 90 seconds is only really helpful if you have a board where you'll have hundreds of people looking every 90 seconds, versus one or two every 90 seconds (or less).
And atm, when a user views the thread again, they can load a cached version of the image if it hasn't changed. Not so with this file.

No, I was thinking more like this:

FIND

if ($cur_topic['moved_to'] != 0)
            $subject = $lang_forum['Moved'].': <a href="viewtopic.php?id='.$cur_topic['moved_to'].'">'.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_topic['subject']).'</a> <span class="byuser">'.$lang_common['by'].' '.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_topic['poster']).'</span>';

REPLACE WITH

if ($cur_topic['moved_to'] != 0)
{
            $icon_type = 'imoved';
            $subject = $lang_forum['Moved'].': <a href="viewtopic.php?id='.$cur_topic['moved_to'].'">'.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_topic['subject']).'</a> <span class="byuser">'.$lang_common['by'].' '.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_topic['poster']).'</span>';
}

Tx: There's already a function that does exactly that for the img tags.
But the reason you don't make it a wrapper is that you don't want to be downloading the image to your servers everytime someone views the thread, since you're just leeching bandwidth then, and you don't want to be caching it either, since people who create dynamic sigs using PHP will be annoyed

Check the while loop for $cur_topic in viewforum.php
Specifically the icon_type variable
