What is your PUN_ROOT defined as at the moment?

Yes, but I'm trying to link to the forums from http://pokelounge.com. The forums are under http://forum.pokelounge.com. If I do it how you guys are saying I receive this error:

http://pokelounge.com/

It was a general reference, not exact information for your specific setup, seeing as you never mentioned those specifics. What is the directory structure of your site? If the forum directory you uploaded is in the web root dir, in a directory called forum, and you are referencing the file from a file in the web root dir, then the define should be: define('PUN_ROOT', './forum');

Only you know the directory layout. Adjust the path accordingly.

Well, I don't have it uploaded to a folder, it's uploaded to the SubDomain Root, so I figured I would have to put that there.

If you have uploaded the files, then they are in a directory, (folder). As Matt mentioned, set the root path correctly: define('PUN_ROOT', './'); That is the path relative to the directory in which the files reside, and has to be a local path.

MattF & sirena,

Let's agree to disagree.

I'd think you were turning soft if we didn't. big_smile

Do you require/include your file from profile.php? If so, try putting this into your file instead of the $_GET version:

$id = isset($id) ? intval($id) : 0;

If that makes no difference, you're going to have to post up the part of your profile.php where you reference the file, and likely the file itself so we can get an idea of how you're doing things. smile

Try telling that to your corporate IT department sometime if you are in some huge business or govt agency lol

No IT department wants to cause themselves work, so they'll stick with whatever they are running until the users or their bosses start complaining. Been there, done that.

That was merely one example. There are many more conditions. There are many reasons why people may be running older setups, either through preference or literally through no choice of their own, but exist they do. If designing to cater for them meant screwing things up for everyone else, then yes, I could see the methodology behind not supporting them. That isn't the case, however. You can easily serve a basic stylesheet specifically for them, if your normal stylesheet causes problems with older/non-compliant browsers.

It's poor form, pure and simple. Design for all or design for none. There are caveats that have no workaround in some cases, but there is still no excuse to make it look a bag of crap unless they're using one of *your* preferred browsers.

Thanks. Somehow I doubt they care about IE 6, being a Mac forum and all.

So we only ever use and browse from one machine running one O.S, do we? Remind me never to browse the BSD sites from a windoze machine again then, if your methodology applies to all.

Hell, that's almost like stepping back 10 years to where it was commonplace to see messages saying that you needed a certain browser to view a site. That is progress is it?

Any chance of a better description Q? That makes practically bugger all sense. big_smile

If you're definitely running 4.3+, then the only thing I can think is that your host has specifically disabled the tokenizer functions during the compilation of PHP. What does your php info page say in the admin section?

What exactly are you wanting to do? Integration of what? Styles or user functions/info?

Update o_base_url in the config table to the correct value via your sql interface of choice.

I saw that, but how to do you go about defining that Pun_Root function?

It's near the top of every file you uploaded. Copy the code from one of the files, i.e:

define(PUN_ROOT, './');

Cookie settings are in the config file you created when you installed the forum. What exactly are you wishing to change? Making the cookie so that it is tied specifically to the forum or vice-versa? I've no idea what your referring to exactly in your posts above.

Maybe you guys are being confused, I mean't like, something to play on the bottom of the page while people browse or something in the background.

Can that be done in punbb?

Not confused at all. That isn't what you asked, however. That can be done on any webpage. Google.

Anatoly, why 1.3 not in trunk? It not main version?

It's in RC status. It hasn't reached stable yet. 1.2* is still the current stable version.

He means to have the latest 5 topic subjects or such listed here somewhere so that you can see what the most recently active topics are over there, I believe, (or something thereabouts).

$cookie_path in the config file. You most likely have it set incorrectly.

Why not? We could provide two PunBB distributions: pure one and with extensions bundled (but not enabled).

It is going against the grain somewhat. Plus, to a degree, it is defeating the point of making the extensions so easy to install if you provide them pre-installed, so to speak. The initial download should preferably be supplied with no extras.

A better idea, in my opinion, would be to make a download package containing all of the official extensions available, to cater for that method of thinking.

RC archives updated.

Thankyou. smile

Could you try to explain a bit more clearly. Not sure exactly what you mean.

What is the setting for o_base_url? Have you installed the forum in a subdir of the webserver root dir?

The wiki over on punres.org has some useful tidbits. smile
