Search options (Page 5 of 6)

Are you sure about the guest and the cookie ? If I ban a guest (by his common username), do you think a cookie is made, when he comes back, to protect the forum from his future attacks, if using other usernames ?

Of course But if they don't, it helps ; you know, you can't protect your house, but you can make more difficult and time consuming to enter. So, more protections = more time to bypass them (amha). Search in the cookie and delete them, it's easy, but it's boring

Thank you for replying so quickly.

Nice !
Thank you Connorhd.

Hello,

Yes I know I may use "see my suscribed topics" or "show my posts" ;
but, imagine : I have readen somebody's interesting post (not mine) : when subscribed, I will receive all new posts, and if the topics is several pages long, it isn't easy to go back to the needed post. More, in this case, I don't want new posts, but an old one.
My suggestion is (for example) : make a "favorite message" link where there is the # message number (in 1.2) to "save" it as favorite and find it easely.
If i want to find the post I have readen a week ago where somebody talked about something, the search engine is a good way but not always. Select and save some post might be more useful for such a purpose.

What do you think about it ?

Hi Gary, and thank you for replying.

I understand first part of your message ;
but for the second, note there is no firewall here when testing the script, and I almost sure IE doesn't block the referer (ok I'm sure, but I'm not often well informed).
Please note : the url of the blank adress is not "the same" in the "url box" : FF gives me : http://mysite/contact.php?phase=check&PHPSESSID=0343d37(cut)
while IE gives me :
mailto:mymail@gmail.com
(and, FF gives me a link t go back ; not IE that leaves a blank and desertic page).

Ah. I have tested with basic test :

if($this->_doCheck()) {
                $_SESSION["tries"] = 0;
                Header("Location: mailto:".$this->email);
                echo "test";

and IE doens't print "test" ; (FF did it).

Working fine and usefull : thanks.

Sorry : I replied by mail instead of posting here the list of light modifications I have done.
I do some tests with original files.

ok Rickard, I have tried with my internet provider's smtp data (login, password and name) but with unsuccess :

error message (quote) :
An error was encountered
Error: Unable to send e-mail. Please contact the forum administrator with the following error message: "502 Error: command not implemented ".

Note (1), I may be wrong in the sense that I'm not fluent in smtp : )
Note (2), my free host is not 'for everybody' and they work fine (imho of french novice ; see links for more information about php version they work with). You know, of course, free stuff is often as good if not sometimes better as expensive if you choose the good one (it's the more difficult) and punBB, and there are many other brilliant programs that are free, is a good example : free and great.

You told me : your host may be the source of the problem but remember I can send mail (with php mail fonction) from profile then it's strange I can't send email vby subscription or for registration, no ?

For better testing with smtp (I probably have not filled in the parameters fields as expected) : do you have link or information for me ? is there 'public' smtp, is there some basic information I can use just for testing ?

Thanks,
abclf.

[edit]
ps : please, can you tell me, Rickard, in what way the punbb mail process works differently in the case of (first) sending mail from profile page and (second) registration, or subscription.

Hello Kiplantt,

(last message : a bit of topic)
I you need some help for the french translation, feel free to contact me.
About the fact french speaking people also do understand email, of course, but if it is a translation it should be french standard to my mind : http://www.oqlf.gouv.qc.ca/ressources/b … glais.html for good french.
So don't hesitate contacting me by mail if needed.
