hrm...  i would say there is some lag somewhere here tongue i swear i posted before the two other posts. mabe im just tired today, its really hot and the fan is blowing the other way sad

you fixed it, what did you do?

i guess this guy doesnt know any php, he would like a script/mod, that would post to the forum without actually pressing the post new topic link.

i myself dont see any sense to that, cause you have to pick which forum and thread topic you want to post in first.

the first link www.gfgthps.co.nr looks nice at first glace except for the streching of the forum, cause when i change the window size, the title picture doesnt strech with it, which means everything goes out of propotion.  either make the whole forum a fixed lingth (so that when people strech the browswer window the image and forum stay the same size), or make the image able to strech with some photoshop magic.

i like the layout of the 2nd link, but still same issue with the title image.

some dont come to your website/forums unless you post fresh news, so always have news on your subject.

i make articles like how to re-encode video for internet distrabution as well as some video card driver compairison articles, and alot of game articles, people love downloads too, ok, so what does this have to do with forums? well, people would come and view those, then join, and comment and various other things, basically it will bring people, but without a staff, its also hard to run a forum, let alone a website that gets large - its hard to find a dependable staff too.

after making the articles i knew i was a member of other forums all around the net, so i added links to these articles in my forum signature' and people would come when they saw them.

do people need this forum, is a great idea too!

in the index.php file.
locate

echo '<div class="block"><h2><span>'.$news_title.'</span></h2><div class="box"><div class="inbox"><div>'.$news_truncated.'</div><br /><div class="box"><div class="inbox">Posted by '.$news_poster.' | <a href="'.$pun_config['o_base_url'].'/viewtopic.php?id='.$cur_news['topic_id'].'">Replies</a>: '.$replies.' | Date Posted: '.$news_date.'

and insert after

<img src="http://digg.com/img/badges/10x10-digg-thumb.png" width="10" height="10" alt="Digg!" /> <a 

href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url='.$pun_config['o_base_url'].'/viewtopic.php?id='.$cur_news['id'].'&tit

le='.urlencode($cur_news['subject']).'">Digg It</a>

i edited the above post to say $cur_news['id'] instead of $cur_topic.


is there a way to insert the story title in digg?

i think he will do something like that, but it wont be on youtube, but his own website (?) with a youtube type of streaming player.

mabe something about main.tpl and how it works.

annother one would be for theme's - editing css files for the styles.

mabe this is to much, but it can be made simple just to show people what its all about.

i agree!

make it a two part one then? make sure to put links to each part in each post big_smile

other than that quaker, i dont think that people know how your computer is setup with the local host.  so if its someone thats going to watch this vid, they are likly going to be oblivious whats going on. great video tho, i thought it was great cause i knew what was going on, but i think mabe actually showing how it works with the actuall server might be better, logging into cpanel and adding a database etc.  other than that everything is rock solid, really neat (tho i do belive people should setup there own system for testing, i think it just confuses people).

ya, i think a portal mod video would be great.

how about an option to make the url an https://
i remember hearing somewhere that would deter all spammers.

a differnt option would be to make a script much like google uses, a submit and review type of mod.  an admin (or for that matter, end users) could select a spam for review, if an admin says its spam (admins would have the final word) then its marked as spam and added to a fillter.  this filter would then filter out the keywords for the next spam and just hide that spam post - the End user would get a message or email or both and they could talk it over with the admin to unhide it.

anyways, i dont think there would be any real way to stop spammers.  there has to be mutliple ways to deter them, but no way to stop them. 

so i would recomend a imaged base script, unless end user doesnt have GD, then a text based script (question=answer)... then a script that uses 3rd parties such as spamhous and other .htaccess files to deter known spam.
and as a last result a much larger project to colect spam and make a filter out of it. 
This filter project will probably be something major that could even be cross platform and hosted at sourceforge, so that all forum applications could code to use it if they wanted.  this would bring great support for it!

because youtube handels all the files you dont have to wory much about bandwidth, upload it there and stream the content using the bbcodes. if people want to download that content they can do that with 3rd party scripts just link them to one of those webpages with the scripts to download it from youtube.

less bandwidth and server load.

anyways, linux uses' differnt libraries, so unless you use wine to emulate it, its not going to work. javascript i belive is cross compatible, but i dont know if they have a vid compression/playback tool.
your better off going with something else.

there might be a player on nix that will play exe video files, but then you would need the codecs for it.  see if gxin or mplayer have a codec to play them, or if bbflashback has any linux help (email them, check the forums etc).

it seems like, from the examples at the bbflashback website that exe is the larger of the 4 file types. flash is probably the best bet because it looks the smallest size.
this site here http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2007/04 … onverters/
http://media-convert.com/ <--convert any media to any type of media
http://vixy.net/ <--download and convert vids from youtube, etc.

lists abuncha converters from css to html, to avi to flv to whatever.  hope that helps.

advertise.

what people normaly do is open a website in there field and goto related forums and just join in on the conversation, in your signature you will have links to your website - mabe to articles that are interesting to people.

i started a gaming website a while back, put my link in my signature and since i was member at so many forums already - hardware and game related, i posted articles about games and hardware and software and people came.

real estate i think is differnt, make some buisness cards and pass them around, but dont be pesky about it, pass them around in good locations that people are going to find places to buy.

make advertisements up and get them to google.com for adsense - im not sure how to go about that at all, so dont ask me tongue its just something i thought would be possible.

look at your competition and see how they do things too.

some of my suggestions....

a modification that says registered users can post replys but not a thread itself until they post at least 10 times.

a mod that says "whats the color of an apple" answer = red
this would be random and bots wouldnt be able to put numbers together because their are no numbers.

obviously others suggested whats 1+3 = 4 thing, but they have defeated that.

i suggest finding out how spammers point to you to spam, do they spam because you have alot of users? then block out the user count, or whatever.

im not a big torrent guy so im not going to try this out yet, BUT, i do really want to see this advance!

i am pritty sure that the downloads i offer on my site would be better off using torrents to transfer the data so i can save bandwidth (i dunoo? can i even upload a file to my server and make a torrent file for it? would that save bandwidth?) for the larger files i have for game updates (ie mirrors).

anyways, any updates would be great!

thank you!

whats the download scipt called on your modelcrowd.com site? i think its refrenced as "uploader" on there.
also the belivewumc.org uses the script too when you goto http://www.belviewumc.org/site/bulletins.php

where can i download that script?

well i hope you do make the CMS, its a great idea, we need a fast cms that can post news and articles, and additianl things... tho support for additional addons and modualar system might be a bit harder to incorperate. keep it simple, and secure.

well regardless what everyone says, i truly dont think a PM system and Poll is required by the authors of punbb, however i would like to see a professional plugin by either the community or the author, dump the files to the server and use the install script, and done, poll and PM is added.
i like that idea better than community made component.... well for PM and a poll anyways, a huge modualar system is to much work and might bloat things alot, so keep it down the only things that are common like a PM and poll system.


yes, i know jeckyl, how bad mail servers can be, i been at many hosts, and i know other sites that always go down tongue i think u know what im talking about lol
PM is a good way to talk, instaint messaging too.
