Hello Paul and thanks for replying ; )

fine : I understand at least why this code worked (the </a> was at the last end)

<?php
while ($ak_post = $db->fetch_assoc($ak_latest)) {
?>

<div id="navcontainer">
<ul id="navlist">
<li id="active"><a href="viewtopic.php?id=<?php echo $ak_post['id'] ?>"><?php echo pun_htmlspecialchars($ak_post['subject']) ?> dernier message posté par <?php echo pun_htmlspecialchars($ak_post['last_poster']) ?> (<?php echo format_time($ak_post['last_post']) ?>)</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div> 

But, nevertheless, it's an error to get more than one div with the same id ? and I have to find another way to list the active post, isn't it ?
So, I will try do something less more chaotic.

Hello all,

So, i'm still working at the layout of my future punbb forum.
I will use alexis.org mod active topics mod (mixed with shuttertalk revision for the direct access to new topic I found usefull) and I need some help to adapt the script to my design : what I want is easy to understand : all in ONE line (i.e. : topic [go to new] by poster at that date with no wrap).
All is working but impossible to get a solution to avoid annoying wraping in this mix of php and html.

(you can see the trouble here : http://www.languefrancaise.net/punbb/index.php)

Here is my sadly adaptated code wink :

<?php
while ($ak_post = $db->fetch_assoc($ak_latest)) {$subject_new_posts = '[ <a href="viewtopic.php?id='.$ak_post['id'].'&action=new" title="'.$lang_common['New posts info'].'">'.$lang_common['New posts'].'</a> ]';?>

<div id="navcontainer">
<ul id="navlist">
<li id="active"><b><a href="viewtopic.php?id=<?php echo $ak_post['id'] ?>"><?php echo pun_htmlspecialchars($ak_post['subject']) ?></a></b><?php echo $subject_new_posts; ?> dernier message posté par <?php echo pun_htmlspecialchars($ak_post['last_poster']) ?> (<?php echo format_time($ak_post['last_post']) ?>)
</li>
</ul>
</div> 

Thanks in advance,
abclf.

Thanks for the solution : done.

Hello everybody,
I'm back with a new question :

the form for the quick answer is ok ; but the form (text box i'm using a this time for writing this post) "post a new topic" is (on my site of course) too big for my layout (in fact, it's working fine in IE but too big in firefox 0.9 : breaks my really holly layout). I don't how where is the trouble : some suggestion ? css ?

(you can see here what I mean :
http://www.languefrancaise.net/punbb/post.php?tid=298
test forum ; sorry)

Hello all,

Just one thing  :
in admin mode you have a all options in one line :
(Categories Forums Users Options Permissions Censoring Ranks Bans Prune....)
you see what I mean ?
but too long and disturbing my holly layout (I'm using big font here) : )
It should be fine to fix this if possible.

Thanx !

Fine if you watch little number of rss feed (10 is ok ; for more, get a specific rss reader) (and numerous klipfolio to watch more stuff : google news, weather, ebay auction, and so on).
Inobstrusive.

Hello Chacmool,

no error message and, I suppose, there is a bottom line at the bottom of the list. I suppose the script fails at the beginning : i see the first informations (about adding guest) but all is as it stops just after.

Do you need the url to test/see it by yourself (by email) ? It might be useful ?
The conversion script is on my site, punbb and minibb too, it's pretty easy.

Thank you,

abclf.

So, I have tried to do the job at home (localhost)with a test database.
MiniBB version is 1.7

First, please note the miniBB forum works fine. All the tables are minibb_ prefixed, and all is in a single one database. PunBB was installed and tested (new message ok, logging ok ; i didn't create a new forum : just used the test one automatically created by the install process).

So, i put the miniBB conversion tool in the punbb folder (renamed : test) and I fill in what is requested : I don't thinj I do mistake : I have no error at the screen.
But here, as with my distant site, the process dont do anything : white page, same message, very quick, and nothing converted.
In fact : the punBB data are erased (OK), the admin (me) is OK (I can log in and access the admin panel), but there is no one forum.

One the page of the script, same list :

Page: _posts (1)

Converting posts: 0...
2 ()
3 ()
6 ()
7 ()
8 ()

(I cut)

116 ()
118 ()
(and ablack line here) 

Please, Chacmool (or anybody having done the conversion with success), I need some help.

Thanks for reading,
abclf.

Hello Rickard,

Fine, I will patient for his advice.
(Thanks for the information.)

abcf.

I'm back :
so I have readen the posts concerning the conversion from phpbb to punbb and i have understood in what way using the tool.

So, I have a problem : it doesn't work for me :

I go to the miniBB index : ok
I fill in what is requested : ok
I click start converter : not ok

what's wrong :
difficult to say, it is very quick :
so, the orignal punbb tables (with original test forum) are cleaned, I see a message that I can't read (i think it is the state of the conversion) and just after (1 second) i come back to converter settings page.
Back to zero and nothing converted.

I need idea and some help, thanks.
abclf.

Hello !

First : very nice script : same kind as miniBB with usefull options : I want to test !
So, here is my question : i have a site with a board powered by miniBB (multiple forums).

Two : I have installed a punBB in a test directory.
So I have the 2 forums in my site.
Now I would like to convert my data from miniBB.

Three : I have downloaded the conversion tool but i don't know what to do next :
where do I copy the conversion script ?
what does the conversion script do to my data ?
(it's important : does the conversion tool affect the original miniBB tables or does the conversion tool first copy and then transform to the new punBB tables. Please understand my question (sorry for my broken english) : in fact I'm interested in a step by step how to about conversion.

Four : Thanks for your help,

abclf.
