I will admit, it's been working for keeping links in the spam posts... but they are still able to register.

Re: Pun stop bots question (31 replies, posted in Discussions)
Fancy Stop Spam doesn't seem to be working -- we are getting just as many spam registrations (if not more) than before.
Is there someplace we can go see this 'work'?

Re: Subscribed by default in punBB 1.4 (11 replies, posted in General discussion)
I found it.
In the pun_users table I changed the default for 'auto_notify' default value to '1'.
I've tested and users can still change their setting as they want, it just starts as checked.

Re: Subscribed by default in punBB 1.4 (11 replies, posted in General discussion)
... can you point me to where I might go to set this? Basically I just want that when someone registers, knows nothing of 'settings' and never looks in there at all and just uses the default for everything on their profile, and then posts to a thread... the 'subscribe to this thread' is checked by default.

Topic: ajax_post_edit in 1.4 (2 replies, posted in General discussion)
...does not appear to fully work. When clicking 'edit' you get the options between 'quick' and 'normal' just fine. If you select 'normal' it sends you to the edit page just fine. If you select 'quick' it gives the red 'loading' animation and never lets you actually edit the post.
I was told it would work: http://punbb.informer.com/forums/post/141882/#p141882
Perhaps this is because it's not for version 1.4? Did something change between 1.4RC2 and 1.4?

Re: Subscribed by default in punBB 1.4 (11 replies, posted in General discussion)
I continue to think you misunderstand. However, clearly I'm having trouble communicating my needs.
I'll see if I can code it myself, as my user base is asking for it.

Re: Subscribed by default in punBB 1.4 (11 replies, posted in General discussion)
No, I think you misunderstand.
Right now, the default is 'not subscribed by default' for each user. People can change it for themselves to "subscribe by default", or they can change it on a post-by-post basis.
I would just like the initial, default, per-user setting to be "subscribe by default". Obviously if they don't want that setting, they can change it.

Re: Pun stop bots question (31 replies, posted in Discussions)
Oh, so StopFourmSpam is not an extension. That makes way more sense.
So you are recommending to not use pun_stop_bots then? (it appears to be broken)

Re: Subscribed by default in punBB 1.4 (11 replies, posted in General discussion)

Re: pun_bbcode not working on 1.4 (28 replies, posted in PunBB 1.4 troubleshooting)
I removed all php files from the main level of the forum directory (moved them to a backup directory)
I then copied all 1.4 php files to the main level.
I then re-copied the old config.php file to the main level.
The word-only bbcode buttons appear to work now.
Thank you for all your help!

Topic: Subscribed by default in punBB 1.4 (11 replies, posted in General discussion)
In my 1.3.4 forum, there was an option where I could have everyone 'subscribed' by default.
Now it appears everyone needs to manually subscribe to a thread.
Is there a way to change this behavior so that users are subscribed to a topic by default?

Okay - so that's why it doesn't work to stop my test spam bots? I guess that makes sense... if it's supposed to be 100% transparent.
At latest version im added support for StopForumSpam email checking and this working good. At next week planned add support for checking IP through StopForumSpam.
... but "StopForumSpam" (assume this is "pun_stop_bots -- Stop Spam from bots ver 0.3.3?) doesn't work.
It asks questions when people try to post and I couldn't find a way to turn that off.
It asks questions when people try to register, but never accepts the 'right' answer and thus people cannot actually register when I have this extension enabled.

Re: pun_bbcode not working on 1.4 (28 replies, posted in PunBB 1.4 troubleshooting)
Yes, my forum is http://www.theprofessionalphotographyforum.com/forum/ Thank you for doing the extra work to find it. Sorry to make you do the extra work.
I have removed the pun_admin_manage_extensions_improved extension (which never really seemed to do anything anyway)
I have copied the entire 'include/template' folder (which includes the main.tpl file) from the 1.4 version. I then uninstalled and reinstalled the bbCode extension.
I have also copied the entire 'lang' folder from the 1.4 version.
I still get the word-only buttons that do not actually do anything.
(sorry, I did the SimpleScripts update at first before you had any warnings and have been trying to get a working forum back ever since)

Re: Pun stop bots question (31 replies, posted in Discussions)
ancy_stop_spam didn't seem to do ANYTHING on 1.4 -- no questions, no captchas, no nothing. I was able to register, change my password, and post ... all without seeing a single 'human' challenge.
The only thing that seems to work with it is limiting the number of links in a post. (and even that applies to ALL posts, not just the first ... unlike what it says)

I had the same problem. It is likely your DB hasn't actually been updated. SimpleScripts broke my forum as well.
What I had to do to solve the problem was comment out the version check in db_update.php and then run it.

http://punbb.informer.com/forums/topic/ … dy-for-14/ states that pub_bbcode is ready to go for 1.4
When I install and enable the "BBCode buttons" (ver. 1.4.17) I get buttons (not pretty ones like here, just ones with words on them) but those buttons don't actually do anything.
Is there something I need to do other than "Install extension"?

Correct. However, those versions were wrong. The "Simple Scripts" update changed all those, but didn't actually change the database.

Re: Error upgrading from 1.3.4 to 1.4 (8 replies, posted in PunBB 1.4 troubleshooting)
I believe the error was due to simple scripts not running the db_update.php file, but it updated the o_database_revision -- so when I ran the db_update, it thought it was already done -- but it wasn't.

Topic: Error upgrading from 1.3.4 to 1.4 (8 replies, posted in PunBB 1.4 troubleshooting)
I did the 'simple scripts' upgrade to 1.4. Afterward, I was unable to view posts. Doing the 'restore previous version' back to 1.3.4 the forum would not display.
So I went back to 1.4 -- which shows everything quite nicely except for individual forums and posts -- which are kind of important.
I disabled all extensions. No dice.
When I go to a forum (anything using viewforum.php) I get the following error (after turning debug mode on)
An error was encountered
The error occurred on line 52 in *pathsnip*/forum/viewforum.php
Database reported: Table 'federerp_pun01.pun_forum_subscriptions' doesn't exist (Errno: 1146)When I go to viewtopic.php for any topic I get the following error:
An error was encountered
The error occurred on line 324 in *pathsnip*/forum/viewtopic.php
Database reported: Unknown column 'u.avatar' in 'field list' (Errno: 1054).The admin/db_update.php file gives me the following error:
An error was encountered
Your database is already as up-to-date as this script can make it.Please help... I'm kind of at a loss and for some reason the backup of 1.3.4 doesn't work... so onward is the only way through.

Topic: pun_antispam link blocking doesn't appear to work (1 replies, posted in PunBB 1.3 bug reports)
I have the forum set to not allow link posting if you have less than 10 posts.
It does, indeed, block signatures until 10 posts, however, people are perfectly able to put links into posts. Example: http://www.theprofessionalphotographyfo … 977#p27977
How can I block people from being able to put links into their posts until they hit a certain number of posts?

Re: Test forum/group membership (1 replies, posted in PunBB 1.3 discussion)
(ps. I can actually get the username and group membership (which I can then test against)) but when doing so I get errors.
here is the code I'm inserting
<?php
if (!defined('FORUM_ROOT'))
define('FORUM_ROOT', '../forum/');
require FORUM_ROOT.'include/common.php';
($hook = get_hook('in_start')) ? eval($hook) : null;
// Show login if not logged in
if (is_null($forum_user['username'])) {
echo 'You are not currently logged into the forum... <a href="../forum/login.php">please do so</a> and return';
} else {
if ($forum_user['group_id'] == 4) {
echo $forum_user['username'].', you are authorized to use the system...';
} else {
echo 'You are not at the correct membership level to use the system. Upgrade today!';
}
}
?>If I am logged in, this works. It will filter out correct groups and give the correct messages. However, I get two "Warning: Cannot modify header information ...." errors showing up on the page.
If I am not logged in, I do not get the errors... but I also do not get the right message. I would like to get a "you are not currently logged in..." message. Instead, I get the "you are not at the correct membership level" message.
Thoughts or nudges in the right direction?
Thanks in advance for any help...
