I'm just curious, will URL rewriting work on systems that do not allow .htaccess?

I appreciate it,
~HME

Could you post a screen shot of the new message layout? I'd like to see what it looks like before upgrading. Thanks.

Excellent mod, but there's no way for admins to adjust the amount of cash certain users have with out playing with the database.  Just a feature suggestion for next time.

I've made some pips you may use. You can download the files here:

This is what you're getting (separate of course):

Do you need the Search Matches and Search Words tables when making a backup? I know you should probably have the structure there, but Punbb doesn't need them, and regenerates them anyway right? Thanks.

It's on a seperate page... Thanks... (I'm used to the 1.1.* style)

I can't find where to change a user's password. Or even my own password. Where is that feature?

If you awarded points per word (very good idea), you need to make sure the system doesn't award users for quoted posts.

I'm running a version of PunBB++ called Alpha 2. Does anyone know which version that is based off of? Thank you for your help.

I tried upgrading as if it was 1.1.1, but I got this error:

File: /home2/hmetern/public_html/RPG/Forums/11_to_12_update.php
Line: 185

PunBB reported: Unable to alter DB structure.

Database reported: Duplicate column name 'language' (Errno: 1060)

My forum won't convert the tags and url's into an image unless you include the http:// part. Is there a reason it shouldn't or is this a bug?

It's easy enough to get around, but I thought I'd alert you.

Here's an example:

Thank you.

Bug: When you opt to delete multiple messages, all that gets deleted in the first one you've selected.

I was wonder if someone could explain, or link me to information on the UNIX line break style. Thanks.

Here's my "quick and dirty" translation into English. I wrote it to give users and (especially admins) the most privacy. (I.E. I generalized what they were doing and for admin actions I wrote "Viewing board index")

I had trouble installing this mod, so I did it manually. There are still some bugs in this script, but the script is still very nice. Thank you!

I currently use Punbb 1.1.* on my website for one forum, but I'd like to run another forum (Punbb 1.2.3) using the same users table. So basically, if you registered on 1.2.3 or 1.1.* you'd be a member of both forums and share basic settings. (Not posts or Topics, just users.)

Also I suppose you might be wondering why I don't want to upgrade my 1.1.*, well I have features, setting, mods, and most importantly my skin which I'm not willing to part with to upgrade, but on the other forum, I really want to take advantage of all the excellent new features of 1.2.3.

Is this possible without much changing of the source code? If so, could you advise me to some sort of starting point or what might need to be changed?

Thanks for any help.

How often would you suggest the clicking of ads? Once or twice per session?

Hey Chacmool,
Excelent mod you've got here! I was wondering, and well I guess requesting a new feature for the Private Message System. So here's the deal, would it be possible to send a private message to a newly registered user to greet them? I'm sure it's possible, but i'm not sure how to go about it.

Also I think it'd be a very useful and nice feature to have a function like:
function pun_message('owner','sender','subject','message');

Example:
pun_message('User','HMEternity','Welcome to the Forums!','Welcome to the Forums, Please read the  rules and enjoy the forums!');

I appreciate any feedback, thanks for writing such a great mod.

Always ~HMEternity

Can moderators see admin's i.p. address? And if so if there any way I can change it so only admins can see i.p.'s?

Hey,
I need to change all my user's style choice from what ever one they have now to HMERPG. I need to do this because any other style would destroy the look of the layout. I have phpmyadmin so I can run a MySQL code through that if needed. Thanks for any help.

Well, I really enjoy enjoy your Punbb forum it works great! But see when I installed a version of PunBB (PunBB++) I did not know it was not an official version of PunBB. So I was wondering if it would be possible to delete me Punn++ forums and in their place install PunBB and use the same database. Would this be possible? I really apppreciate your help -- Thanks!

And a link to my PunBB(++) forums:

Well I am using the prehacked version of punbb as you can see at the bottom of the page. I haven't installed any mods The only thing I have changed is removing the link to the detailed users online page.

Thanks and I am sorry for not giving you enough information!

BB code does not work on my forum for some reason, when you click the button nothing happens except the staus bar at the bottom of the page changes from "Done" to "Error on Page". I have javascript enabled if that matters... Other than that Pun BB is an excellent forum! Thanks for helping out!
