I am currently using punbb 1.3.5 with pun repository v1.2.4 and anti spam system v1.3.4. Everything installed successfully but when I go to the registration area it says "Captcha image. Turn pictures on to see it." How do I turn the pictures on? in other words the code that people have to enter in order to register. Thanks!

Problem Solved!

Hey fill us in! I'm having the same problem.

I want only registered users to be able to read. It is to be used internally in the company. If not is there a free bb software that will do this?

I basically got this working, but I can't pass the get variable that has the csrf_token in it to coppermine. I don't know why there would be a problem with this.

Currently coppermine redirects to the forum/index.php when you click on the coppermine logout. Is there a way to logout directly from coppermine? Well, I know there is but, does has anyone done this. I'm using the previous version of punbb.

$cookie_path '../' apparently won't work because then you can't logoff in punbb.

punbb is installed in www.something.com/forums
I need the cookies to apply to the root as well.

do i change this in config.php from
$cookie_path = '/';
to
$cookie_path = '../';

that should do it, right.
Also, what is the $cookie_domain for?

Thanks you sir, that is exactly what I'm looking for.

A cursory look around suggests coppermine may be the way to go. Can anyone recommend it?

I'm creating a myspace type of page and would like the user to be able to put pics in their profile (and perhaps link them to the forum). Is there a mod or some external code that would enable me to do that?

Also, I want the images stored in a directory, not the database. Only the name of the file will be stored in the database.

If there is no mod, perhaps there is a good tutorial page someone can direct me to.

Can someone tell me what these are?

never mind. I found the problem.

I added a field to the registration process: an edit field to be specific. I have made it a required field and the script catches it if it has not been filled. So the user hits the Go Back link or the back button and fills it out. Problem: when they hit the Register button, the field is shown as still blank. Anybody have any ideas?

thanks in advance.

I see thank you.

I don't have a problem, but just an idle question: I notice that some files, register.php for example, close with an open php tag

<?php

require PUN_ROOT.'footer.php';

I was just wondering the reason/logic of this. Thanks.

thank you sir, i appreciate it.

Plus, I 'd like to know where the process_form() function can be found.

ok, i'm a little new to this so be gentle smile

i want to add a few fields to the register.php process--things like street address, etc. I know that when fields are left blank you get a javascript window that says: "Username is a required field in this form" when you click the Register button. I assume this is triggered by this:

onsubmit="this.register.disabled=true;if(process_form(this)){return true;}else{this.register.disabled=false;return false;}"

So how can i add my extra fields to that command. More generally, could someone explain this line of code briefly, or link me to another thread about it. I greatly appreciate it.

I want to convert my profiles from this sort:

http://www.mysite.com/profile.php?id=4

to this:

http://www.mysite.com/farmersmarket

where 'farmersmarket' is, of course, the username.
I assume mod_rewrite is the way to go.
Could anyone possibly help me out?
I greatly appreciate it.

Never mind. I should have read the instructions first; it says put the contents of the upload directory into the root directory on your site. Is there a knucklehead smilie?

It just turned into a big deal. some of the pages are directing to http://mywebside.com/index.php    and it's not there--it's in the upload directory.

Even when I instruct it to install it in the root, making sure the trailing slash is removed? It's no big deal, but the root is the normal place. I like my index.php in the root.
