<ignore>Is there a problem with pagination using this thingy?

I have a topic with more than 25 items, but the subsequent page links aren't showing up.</ignore>

Just being stupid, sorry.

Why not post what the solution was, so others can learn from it?

Just wanted to say thanks for this amazing product!

I came across it this week after having been in the market for a no-nonsense message board for quite some time now.  All the other boards insist on offering their users a zillion useless features, which bogs them down incredibly.  After installing PHPBB, Invisionboard, and vBulletin, I had to go in and disable all the frills which could be disabled through the control panel, then go into the code/html to disable those that couldn't.

PunBB is by far the fastest forum software I've ever used, which I'm sure will be conducive to improved discussions on my upcoming site.  Its low feature count and its CSS-based design (no nested tables four levels deep...) are important achievements.  This is in keeping with ideas discussed elsewhere such as Less is ... More Satisfying ("...we just cut down the feature list by about 2/3. Wow does that feel good...") and Building Communities with Software ("Small software implementation details result in big differences in the way the community develops, behaves, and feels.").

Keep up the excellent work!

My server is on EST time.  When I set my profile's timezone to GMT, the board displays the hour and minute correctly for my timezone, but still displays the timezone indicator as "EST", when it should display "GMT".

If I'm not mistaken this is all it requires:

admin_forums.php
============
add after line 284:

<option value="2"<?php if ($cur_forum['sort_by'] == '2') echo ' selected="selected"' ?>>Views (desc)</option>

viewforum.php
=============
change ternary condition

(($cur_forum['sort_by'] == '1') ? 'posted' : 'last_post')

to

(($cur_forum['sort_by'] == '1') ? 'posted' : (($cur_forum['sort_by'] == '0') ? 'last_post' : 'num_views'))

in all places

Sorting by descending number of views is useful when you're using a forum to list resources (e.g. products, services). Sorting by view causes the more popular resources to float to the top.

Since punBB already counts views, there's no substantial overhead to adding this sort capability.

I wish I could disallow viewing anything to do with a forum's membership:
1. The User List link at the top
2. User profiles
3. The box with "newest registered user" and "total number of registered users" at the bottom of the index page.
