To be honest, I don't know much about Linux, but if you decide to go with CentOS, maybe this might help you: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_centos_4.3

I was just over at Howtoforge and thought of this thread.

Little Problem in PM::

I am aware when you PM somebody the script will automatically send that someone an email notifying him/her has a private message waiting back at the forum right? My problem is the script is No Longer sending an email anymore??

Can someone help and tell me what (PHP) file or line of code that is causing this to happen?

Would appreciate...

no it doesn't email you when you receive a PM.

I wish it did, and in fact a year ago I brought that up..

Thanks for the quick reply and into refreshing my mind that the PM script does not send any email.

And yes, it would be nice if it did like you discribed.

Thanks for the responds...

I guess you could set every group so that it's not allowed to search.

Surely not on a .html page? (well, unless the server is set up to parse PHP in html files)

billw:

Assuming your server doesn't have the fancy set-up that I mentioned above, the code you posted would need to be in a .php file, not a .html file. Also, I'm not quite sure if absolute paths work in includes (I dunno, maybe - if you get an error, try changing what you have to a relative path).

it can not be private ... punbb is uder gpl so he must release it to public

No - he can keep it to himself if he likes, but if he chooses to distribute it, then he must do so abiding by the conditions of the GPL (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.htm … emandACopy).

Also, it would be a mod, not a plugin, so I have moved it accordingly.

Wow man, that looks awesome!

They can all be found in include/functions.php

They're pretty easy to find if you just use the find function in any decent text editor. To remove them, I'd recommend that you comment them out by placing // in front of them. Ex:

If you want to remove the index link, change:

$links[] = '<li id="navindex"><a href="index.php">'.$lang_common['Index'].'</a>';

to

// $links[] = '<li id="navindex"><a href="index.php">'.$lang_common['Index'].'</a>';

I want to show some particular categories on other pages. Not the whole forums itself, just specific categories.

For example, i might want to have only the "Gaming" category on /gaming.php

Can I do that?

Have you looked at extern.php yet? I don't quite understand what you're asking, but that might help.

Moved to PunBB discussions.

This post is a nice example of how to add extra fields to the profile.

As for the birth date field, I believe that the calendar mod gives you one of those.

Connorhd wrote:

so whats the advantage of this over each topic having one category?

The best example I can think of is a case where a topic can fit in more than one place. For example, what if you are having trouble with a mod? Then you could tag it with "Troubleshooting" and "Modifications". Or what about your PunDokuWiki mod, which one could argue involves both modification and integration? Just tag it with both.

Personally, I love the idea of having tags available for organization, but I hate actually having to tag thing myself. Anyway, this would probably be a great modification, but it doesn't seem like something that enough people would appreciate to make it a PunBB feature by default.

On www1 as well, I searched for "hihihi" in the user list and got this:

An error was encountered

PunBB reported: Unable to fetch user list count

On www1 I randomly pushed submit on the user list search and got this:

Hi

Then I started getting the word "hi" in random places.

Unfortunately, the link you have offered contains NO INFORMATION (really, I have already read that) about ways of integrating the whole forum into a particular site of an already existing design.... just to make it clear,  my intention is not to change or add header + footer to the template.... what I would like to achieve is to make the whole forum appear in a cell of a table, which table is part of a very complex design....

I am patient, but it seems nobody has really read what my question is about.... I do not want to customize the forum, I want to make it appear in a cell AS IS

First of all, to reiterate what Connorhd said, please be patient. It's only been what, two days since you posted your question?

Now, on to business. I'm not all that experienced with integration (oh, wait, make that not experienced at all wink ), but it would appear to me you have two options:

1) You say that you added necessary table tags to the header and footer, and thus the forum is now in a table cell, properly styled, but not properly fit to the size of the surrounding table, correct? Wouldn't this just be a matter of editing the CSS files to give forum elements a proper width?

2) Start over and do something like this instead (I'm presuming this is along the lines of what Connorhd was suggesting by pointing you to the docs):

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html dir="<pun_content_direction>">

<!-- BC's layout stuff -->
<table>
    <tr>
        <td>
<!-- / end BC's layout stuff -->
        <div id="punwrap">
        <div id="pun<pun_page>" class="pun">

        <pun_main>
        
        </div>
        </div>
<!-- BC's layout stuff -->
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>
<!-- / end BC's layout stuff -->

</body>
</html>

Do you get the idea? Just replace include/template/main.tpl with something like that.

If you still have trouble, please remember that in order to help you, others need a decent amount of information about your issue. Especially when dealing with layouts, a link and/or a screenshot (preferably both, IMO) can be particularly useful.

Yes, it has been mentioned before, but don't worry, I had quite a bit of trouble finding it via search also. A great as it is, search is not foolproof.

Anyway, some sort of protection sounds like a good idea to me, that is if it's not already planned (I vaguely remember reading a forum post saying so, but I just got through a major essay cramming session and I'm tired, so who knows, my brain could be playing tricks on me).
