I'll make a mod for making IP's totally confidental from everybody. It will be done within 2 days.
And I know this is off the topic, but how long does it usually take Cactuz to put a mod on his site? I uploaded a mod last night to remove the banning power from moderators and it is still not up there.
Lol. Don't worry Wooty. My mod for that will be out by Monday. :-)
How can you not like mods? Mods allow you to customize the board to your own usage instead of whining at the creator to add something that everybody does not like.
If you want something, make a mod.
So basically it is like using the < pre> tag.
Awesome. Thanks man. These mods should be done within a week.
I am currently using Webalizer. http://www.mrunix.net/webalizer/
It has a lot of good and interesting features.
Alright. When I am done with it, you want me to email it to you so you can post it on the PunBB site?
Heh yeah. I say if you are going to add more smiles, just post a link on the top of the page so people can see what the bbcode for them are.
Alright. Would you want me to make a mod that counts the posts a user has in the db?
With the smile link thing he is talking about. I believe he wants the smile to be displayed on the post screen and when you click on a smile, it inserts that smiles bbcode into the text area.
Hmm. Well why not have it so it reflects the number of posts the user currently has in the database. Or I could do a mod for you so if people want it counting the database posts they can use the mod.
And by doing it this way, it would eliminate the code on the profile page where you can change the number of somebodys posts. If the post number is automatically created o-t-f, then you wouldn't need the ability to edit the # of their posts. Right?
I recently deleted 5 or so posts from a suser on my PunBB test forum and it didn't affect the users post count. Now I was wondering if you could insert a function where when a thread/profile is viewed it will quickly count posts from that user and display the number.
If you did it that way, it would eliminate some code on the Profile page. Therefore making it faster.
Ah ok. Thanks man. And you can rebuild the search index? I did not know this...

I knew someone would say that. Anyway, hackers do crack peoples passwords, but they don't destroy anything.
You notice the root word of "cracker" is "crack". A hacker would not crack passwords. A cracker would crack passwords. If you want the definition of a hacker, go here: http://www.mithral.com/~beberg/hacker.html
And you may want to delete install.php when you are done installing it.
I've started the converter and I have a question.
PunBB and phpBB both have tables in the db for searching. On my PunBB forum, I have disabled searching. Are those tables really necessary? If so, what exactly is their purpose? I don't quite understand why have tables for when searching for data. When you could just do a query into the post tables to find what you are looking for.

Even worse, someone could include some <script>-tags with a javascript which sends the cookie to a cracker/hacker/whatever... Then they can use MD5-Crack to decyrpt it. Or does PunBB use sessions?
The correct term is cracker. And there is no MD5 crack. When you put a string of data through MD5, you cannot reverse it.
And Kenel, if you do remove HTML, leave the basic bb codes (bold, italics and underline).

Those are the forums for a new game my programming group is developing. We do not currently have a main page for the site, but will by next week.
I'll take a shot at it. If you want to get in touch with me with anything you want me to add to the phpBB->PunBB converter, my email is: mako@medievalbattles.com
I am a longtime user of phpBB and discovered PunBB last night. I am in love. It's speed and design amazes me. But then again, shiny objects amaze me. 
I currently run phpBB for my games forums (http://forums.medievalbattles.com). I am wondering if there are any converters out there that can convert threads on phpBB to PunBB.
If not, then I will just have to make one myself.
Congrats to Kennel for making the best forum script that I have ever seen.
PHP with the backbone of MySQL is the greatest combo ever.
And Cactuz, why did you have 70 queries? You should have just used an array or join.
