Your template is lovely.  The way the logo picks up the layout colours looks very polished.

I've had excellent luck with the Bad Behaviour mod.  It does only block bots though, not humans posting spam.

Just to be clear, the Backup plugin lets you save your database only.  You should also save the files from your forum directory, especially if you have installed any mods.

You could use different portal software for each portal.  For example, you could use PunPortal for one and MiniPortal for another.  If both portals have to run the same thing and they alter the database at all, you would have to edit one copy of the portal so they don't try to use the same settings.

Rio, removing the copyright notice from the footer (or removing the footer totally) is permitted.

Make a copy of footer.php.  Within the copy, delete everything you don't want.  Then within index.php, require the copy instead of the normal footer.

bingiman, the problem seems to be that your PHP isn't within PHP tags.  Try this instead:

<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=<?php echo $pun_config['o_base_url'] ?>/viewtopic.php?pid=<?php echo $cur_post['id'].'#p'.$cur_post['id'] ?>&title=<?php echo pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_topic['subject']) ?>">Digg It</a>

There's a mod for lists in BBcode: http://www.punres.org/desc.php?pid=185

Heh.  That makes sense!

*YOUR FORUM URL HERE* could be replaced with <?php echo $pun_config['o_base_url'] ?>, like so:

<div style="float:left;"><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=<?php echo $pun_config['o_base_url'] ?>/viewtopic.php?pid=<?php echo $cur_post['id'].'#p'.$cur_post['id'] ?>&title=<?php echo pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_topic['subject']) ?>">Digg It</a></div>

reckless: Is there a reason you have *YOUR FORUM URL HERE* instead of echoing o_base_url ?  Then the code snippet wouldn't require editing.

ISO-8859-1 would be better than windows-1250.

Parsers and screenreaders used by visually impaired people.  Using character entities, though, might stop some bots while staying readable for humans.

That CSS won't work as written.  The IDs are on the list items, not the links themselves.  It needs to be 

#punsearch #navsearch a

and so on to work.

IE6 doesn't support :hover on anything else than a tags

Yes, and the :hover would indeed be on A tags (the header nav links).  Would that not work?

My advice:  don't allow guest posting, require verification on all registrations (so anyone registering an account has to supply a valid email address), and run an anti-spam mod.  There are several out there.  I use the Akismet mod, which works pretty well so far.  Registration CAPTCHAs work but also shut out the vision-impaired, so I suggest using them only if nothing else works.

As for cleaning up the spam, try the Forum cleanup plugin.

I have tried replacing admin_loader.php, header.php, and admin.tpl with unaltered files from the latest version release, but my plugins still aren't alphabetized.  There are a lot of plugins I want to use, but I can never quickly find the one I want in the messy list.

Please, can anyone help me fix this?  It's driving me bananas.

Mine are not sorted alphabetically.  They go like this:
AP_DB_Management
AP_Clear_Cache
AP_Broadcast_Email
AP_Languages_and_style

They're not alphabetized and they're not reverse alphabetized either.  It's possible I broke the alphabetizing code during an upgrade, but if that's it, I'm still not sure what to look for.

I'd like my plugins to be sorted alphabetically within my PunBB control panel.  Right now they're listed without any rhyme or reason.  How can I make it happen?

I do likewise, but I've yet to convince her to.

One of my members has cookies completely disabled at work but would still like to post from there.  That's my only no cookies member though.

I have no idea how much work it would be, but I would love a mod that allows guest/logged out users to enter a username and password when posting.  It doesn't seem like something that should be in the default installation though.

For (1), your Announcement has <a/> where it should have </a>.  Fixing that error should stop the text from highlighting.

I don't know if phpBB PMs or polls would convert though.

That's not PHP, it's CSS.  That screenshot is of the Novin style, so you can download that style and look in the .css files to find what you want.

You need to set the timezone based on the server time, not your personal computer's time.

Sounds like you want the News Generator plugin found here.
