so

1,640,000 for live cricket you look at them links... the first page is moslty bbc, second page you start getting other sites...

www.livesportontv.com/sportindex.php?id=4  ... www.cricket365.com/0,18276,,00.html ... sport.guardian.co.uk/cricket/overbyover/story/0,,2224526,00.html

but you have said "and also if u think that .html have nothing to do with thne you most certainly wrong .. ."

Yes the links above are html. but a search engine dont order resutls on their language..

and relating this to your site, you havnt got any good content worth being on the first 10 pages....

Well, that and the fact that the site has close to no backlinks, and a lot of the content previously indexed has been deleted and moved.
And yes, adding .html to the end of your URL does nothing.

No, you need to enter the actual password, not the md5 hash.

5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99

That is the correct md5 for "password" (without "s). The hash given to you before was the md5 of "test" (again, no "s)

Wow, that's quite a wishlist wink

* Complete AJAX CMS:
      Ajax Menu: the whole site-map in 1 XML menu file.
      DB2XML tool.

A CMS might be overkill, don't you think? wink

* Printing: client side (see http://www.richstyle.org: hiding the header, menu, sidebar -if any-, and footer blocks)

That's something that can be accomplished via CSS if you want it

* A javascript calender support: something like http://www.dynarch.com/projects/calendar/.

Again, overkill? Would be an interesting extension.

* user/visitors statistics: in the statusbar, and/or in additional artificial buttonface-color statusbar.

What kind of statistics? An extension could do this nicely and let you customize exactly what data you want to see

* Encoding: utf-8, with unicode font (tahoma).

UTF-8 support is already planned and Verdana, the font we're using, does support Unicode characters.

* Text Boxes <Input>: LTR attribute for filname, username & passward fields.

Why?

Format:

    Some of the falloewing ideas are here: http://www.upload-images.net/imagen/502a468edc.png
    * Header+Footer: width:100% across the whole page width.
    * Footer: text-align: center.
    * Title box: white lines up and down.
    * Menu blocks: links should be blocks, not simple underlined texts
    * Font size: 10px
    * Buttons: Flat borders, themes color.
    * Colorizing Scroll bar (for IE5.5+ users) - I wish if it was w3c standard hmm
    * OS Colors in The Control Panel/Administration pages (Buttonface..etc) and bigger padding.

Those are all stylistic things you can tweak via CSS if you want them that way wink
And 1.3 has entirely new markup/CSS in any case

That's because they used a sha1 hash. However, PunBB's login.php correctly deals with converting md5 to sha1

And those are people's opinions on the effectiveness of VBSEO.

You would be better served by talking about what features you think PunBB lacks rather than by pointing us at another site and saying "oh, look at that"

Added in changeset 1308.
This obviously does not solve the issue of easily adding one table without a prefix. However, we think that would be a less common usage of the query builder. In that situation, the extension writer can prepend the prefix to the PunBB tables manually.

No. At least not in the multiple group membership scheme I envision. wink
Doing that would be possible, but extremely complex: it would involve getting the data for all the groups the user is a part of, storing the data somewhere it's accessible, changing all the permissions queries so that they join all of the groups the user is a part of, and then determining which group gives them read permissions and applying the rules of that group to the situation. What would happen if two groups gave read permission over the same forum? wink
The system doesn't have to be that complex. It can simply be: the user is in group X and group Y. The user's powers can be the union of the group permissions. That would mean that editing a post would apply to all forums the user can read.

One of the reasons we do not support UTF-8 in 1.2. PunBB 1.3 will have full support though.

One more reason you should roll in the changes that fix utf-8 in 1.2 right away as an update.

No. 1.2 is the stable, feature frozen current version. We're not going to spend our time backporting a MAJOR new feature like full UTF-8 support, which is almost certain to have issues when it's first tested, which would break the 1.2 branch and make it unstable. It makes no sense to spend our time doing that.

I'm telling you that the reason the redirect is happening like that is because of code added in 1.2.16. I don't know why you didn't experience the problem, but you could be the second person I've talked to tonight who upgraded a forum without making all the proper code edits. wink
The most plausible explanation in my mind is that as a part of the changes you made, the redirect function got changed to the proper, secure version which is causing these issues.

Now, as I said, is there any way for you to access the forum in the same way as your visitors rather than via localhost? Can you just enter the IP and browse it like them? If so, that's your best option and it makes the most sense.
