Valuable contribution!
I'd have put it in ADDITIONS....
but you should be asked to join the developers of punbb - as you seem to have time and expertise, in my opinion...  just the kind the project needs....

publish forum posts on the home page

» Administration » Settings » Portal

You create / choose a forum from which you want the posts to be published on "index" page.

» Administration » Start » Panels

is where you find the settings to have boxes on left right etc....

Best idea: Trial and error it!

PS: You get the warning cos it was last tested on 1.3.2. - and is an unofficial extension (i.e. no official support!)

Contact your host... Either your database is not connected to forum, or your domain is offline...


PS: your topic title was useless (help!!!!) so I changed it  and you posted in bug reports when it is clearly troubleshooting (99% nothing to do with php code of forum but hosting issue) wink

They don't need to type bbcode.... all they need to do is type in a correct url and the parser automatically does the rest!
tick the feature below in settings > features

Allow BBCode parser to detect URLs and put them into url tag.

Is PunBB used to do this, or did the webmasters combine a blog application with PunBB for the forum?

They custom made it (nothing you can activate big_smile ).
The closest you can come to it is by using the Daris Portal (unless they publish the code for the "home" page of punbb....)

If you've seen (or anyone else for that matter) any
that don't work and
whose authors aren't active here anymore, or don't react to a bug report for 1.3.4,

I think it's probably a good idea to let those extensions be "adopted" by whoever can and wants to correct it. (keeping orginial author as well as new author in ext info)

That way no good code, or important features are lost... smile

There's that UBBcode extention that would have been going in the direction - if it worked.
It would be done with javascript.

One of these forum members could probably code it : rajuru, DiD, daris, LuckyMouse

@LuckyMouse: Have you given up on this then?

From evidence on this board it seems that it is not efficient to load the bans list everytime a ban is submitted.

Why? Everytime the list is retrieved with all the users banned since Adam and Eva! wink - it would be good to paginate or somehow solve this problem, as it is real and imminent.

Thank you for your efforts.

Slavok, IMO, you should implement this in the out of the box version.
Also this isn't some luxury feature request but a basic need.
It comes closer to a fault in the code than what feature solves, IMO always.

This site, and all the spam registrations (stoppable with extensions Stop Bots questions, Stopforumspam) shows that not enough care is being taken by you - as lead developer - to this forum software.

I'd appreciate a solution! I know you are busy with other things...

Changed that hook in manifest as suggest by Cleric (and also min. tested to 1.3.4 from 1.3.2)
and now uploaded it here

http://www.mediafire.com/file/wz4e39lss … _1.0.1.zip

Anyone else feel like improving it, obviously feel free!

Interesting and nice effort.

Btw, I don't know of any extension that doesn't work on 1.3.4 ... so the distinction of whether it was made and tested on 1.3.2 etc isn't that important, IMO...

Is it possible that if a Guest posts a reply and the Admin approves it, the post gets the Admins IP ?!
That's what has just happened today to me ...

OK, thanks, because spammers make use of this. They only activate days later sometimes....

and scroll and activate the extension features....

Setup which actions are protected by a captcha

also in

Hello Paxarin

1. Go to admin/extensions.php?section=manage

2. Install  Pun Repository

3. Install Pun Antispam / Pun Stop Bots (Optionally: Pun Approval - for manual approval of registrations /and /or posts)

4. Install Stopforumspam Extension

Just had this when trying to approve a guests post, any ideas as to what problem could be?

An error was encountered

The error occurred on line 1539 in /home/.../extensions/pun_approval/functions.php

Database reported: Duplicate entry '17900' for key 'PRIMARY' (Errno: 1062).

When I go and look in phpmyadmin I see

first_post_id   17900
last_post_id  17900

It's a guest creating a topic....


EDIT:

I see now that the topic is already approved once and live in the forum, but there's still a topic to approve in pun_approval....
Is it possible this is bug when guest posts a new topic and the topic is approved?

EDIT 2: No, tested it again and working. Maybe the database was playing up or something. Solved.

I have just started a new database with feature requests.

I'll add more as I see them here:


However this one is the one with by far the most interest!

I hope someone starts work on this.

Try reinstalling all the files to the folder on your assigned server space.
Also make sure you even have mySQL or some db package included...?
If you do and reinstalled a fresh version of 1.3.4 and problem persists - contact your hosting support....

When you edit a post as admin there's a box ticked "silent edit" - if you untick it , you'll see it same as above.
