I don't see any copyright or license notes in the converter code. So it can be hard to prove something. I think you can write them an e-mail and ask to remove your converter.

Maybe someone else can advise you what to do.

Yes.

The goal of the extension system is to add or modify the forum functionality without touching the code smile

I'll see later if it's possible in your case.

If you develop an extension, you can uninstall the extension and then install it again. If you have modified an extension at working forum, you can't uninstall it because the associated data in DB will be deleted. It's better to increase the version of the extension (for example, 1.4.6 => 1.4.6.1, then 1.4.6.2 and so on) and to upgrade it.

We have the pun_admin_manage_extensions_improved extension for developers that allows to refresh hooks without reinstalling.

I think it could be an extension.

It shoud be like this:

echo '<meta name="ROBOTS" content="NOINDEX, FOLLOW" />'."\n".
   '<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />'."\n";

Why not to use this: http://punbb.informer.com/forums/extern … mp;show=10

What error messages are displayed?

Are there any extensions installed?

We'll see what we can do with permissions.

Using 'autocomplete="off"' will break page validation (all pages here are XHTML 1.0 Strict).

Seems like you have the same issue as here: http://punbb.informer.com/forums/topic/ … e-problem/

Does the issue appear when the Oxygen style is enabled? Or it concerns your custom style?

Why replace?
Just add the code.

Would be nice to be able to send message to several recipients...

This feature is hard to make because of how pun_pm is made. Consider the case when a user sends a message and another user receives it. Actually there are no copies of the message for these two users. There is only one row corresponding to the message in the DB table.

The thing I can do is to convert a message that has been sent (has been or saved as draft) to some receivers into some messages having only one receiver. And there will be some messages in the Outbox, not one.

There is the $forum_user array in 1.3.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_request_forgery

Try to edit the config.php file and write your hidden host (or whatever) there.

Ok smile

Then I'll write one more thing. It's not important here (a file that contains 100 lines), but it can be a kind of small optimization for big files (~1Mb).

When you check the presence of a substring in a file, you can do this:

$file_contents = file_get_contents('/path/to/file')

if (strpos($file_contents, $substr) !== false) {
    // Found
    ...
}

Saving and loading:

file_put_contents('/path/to/file', implode("\n", $array_of_lines));

$array_of_lines = explode("\n", file_get_contents('/path/to/file'));

There is no "\n" at the end of elements in $array_of_lines (unlike the returned values of the file() function).

And the code is more compact when these functions are used.

I have just two little advice.

$fname = ".htbots";

You can create such a file in the 'cache' directory (one can be sure it's writeable):

$fname = FORUM_ROOT.'cache/.htbots';

And it's better to lock the file before writing, see the flock function description.

Do your forum users really suffer from spam PMs? For example, noone here complains of it.

It's not right to delete sent messages for every user being deleted. And my point is that an additional option (delete sent messages or not) is an excess functionality.

The first thought has come into my mind is to install a fresh copy on your https server. If it works fine we'll know that the issue is in config settings. Otherwise, the issue can be in PunBB itself or somewhere in the server settings.

I had trouble with this new extension Pun_Antispam not showing image. it was there but it was always clear white. checked cmod. checked I had all the right php ect.....

Maybe this bug is connected to the GD library issues (e.g. old version or something else)? Or maybe your hosting has special settings? Try to ask your hosting provider support.

Try to run search index rebuilding: Administration » Management » Rebuild index.
Maybe this will help.

Ok, I've added flood protection to features planned for next releases.

I've just released pun_pm 1.2.8 where I've fixed the bug.

To make spammer's life easier?

Maybe it makes sense only for admins.

Recently we moved a new style, Copper, to the public SVN repository and installed it on Forums. It's time for beta testing smile

How to set up the style: go to Profile->Settings and choose "Copper" in "Available styles".

You can download the style from the Trac: "Download in other formats: Zip Archive" link at the bottom of the page.

Feel free to post your suggestions here.
