way beyond my capabilities bud. big_smile

well i guess it's time to fix all the urls that are left over from my conversion from vb to PunBB. it's been a samll annoyance that i should have taken care of right after the conversion but didn't. that said is there a sql query i can run to go through all the bad urls and replace them with good urls? i know it may be a long shot but i think it's still worth a shot. i can be your guinea pig, if you will tongue

the vb urls look like this:

[ url="http://www.website.com"]text[ /url]

which produces a url like this:

http://"http//www.website.com

and as you know the PunBB ones look like this:

[ url=http://www.website.com]text[ /url]

without the quotes. so i'd imagine that the query would have to go through all the urls and remove the quotes ONLY in those kind of urls.

any help would be appreciated.

oh, forgot to post a link to an example.

impressive functionality with this jewel. i do agree it is a bit out of place visually though. but easily fixed.

Stupid question I know...

you would be surprised at how common something like this could happen but yes it is correct. thanks for the quick response though. smile

and not forum.php?

www.6x6productions.com/index.php  <- bad
www.6x6productions.com/forum.php  <- good

as far as i can tell i followed the instructions correctly. i've tried re-uploading the index.php file but no change.

or is this something beyond my control? hosting issue?

i did a quick search and have found that other's seemed to have had host issues. correct?

QUAKER! hop on im.

kinda. so to overcome just do a reverse order?

i don't know if i follow you so is that a bug or something i've done?

for testing i've added these to it and it does the same thing:
works

6 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 7</a>
5 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 6</a>
4 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 5</a>
3 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 4</a>
2 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 3</a>
1 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 2</a>
0 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 1</a>

doesn't work:

0 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 1</a>
1 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 2</a>
2 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 3</a>
3 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 4</a>
4 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 5</a>
5 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 6</a>
6 = <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">link 7</a>

they work in reverse. odd...

a bit further testing proves that the links work when there is only one but more than one they stack up in the top links position. ie: if the top link is 2 = <a href.... they all end up between Userlist and Search.

fresh vanilla install of 1.2.15, no mods, no plugins, etc, and i get this:

with this:

i've cleared my browser's cache and the PunBB cache folder of all the .php files and it still like this. no errors pop up either.

any ideas?
