Nope. When it's ready. A RC only becomes available when all known bugs in the beta have been sorted, and all features/enhancements are frozen other than for bugfixes. There is no timeframe other than when it's ready.

The way *nix permissions work. big_smile For you to be able to view/write the contents of a directory, the relevant user/group has to have execute permissions on that parent directory.

When it's ready.

Check the wiki over on punres.org for the recent posts/topics. It's a part of the mini portal mod. PunBB has extern.php for RSS feeds. I've also posted up a RSS and an Atom generator on here somewhere, and there's the Alex King RSS one too, somewhere on here.

Try telling that to the Brits/English. big_smile

You've seen "I'm on a public computer" and "forget me" checkboxes on login pages all across the net right? There's a reason websites keep using this feature wink

Erm, no. I've never seen that once that I can recall, in all honesty. I've seen remember me checkboxes, but never forget me checkboxes.

Thinking about it, I would actually agree that it probably would be better in an extension. The chances of someone being happy with a mass unsubscribe option would be slim, so they'd probably end up installing an extension to have finer control anyhow, which would pretty much make the mass unsubscribe option needless. And as you mention, adding the extra code to search.php isn't ideal for a default setup.

I'd agree with Dr.Jeckyl. Unless you have a specific reason to keep the domains appearing as separate entities, just redirect two of them to the primary domain.

Except that there's really no place where you view the subscriptions that it would make sense to do this.

You wouldn't necessarily wish to view the subscriptions however. Something along a simple 'unsubscribe from all subscribed topics' checkbox somewhere in the profile pages. If people want to do a mass desub they can, or they can use the standard method if not.

That's one of thse rare things I would have thought would have been better as a generic feature, just due to the simple fact the the subscription system itself is part of the base system. A mass deselection does seem a worthwhile consideration, in my humble opinion. smile

FFS.  What a dim argument - "if you don't like it, change it yourself".  Is that how applications are improved?  Is this forum not for discussing how PunBB *might* be improved?

Actually, yes, that is how applications are improved if it's not general consensus. And it obviously would appear that the only opinion you are in fact interested in is your own, so have fun. I sure as hell won't be responding to any more of your posts after this. smile

The problem with things like that though is that yes, they take a percentage of people and monitor how they behave. However, it doesn't always mean it'll have relevance in general use. For example, I always place my cursor at the right hand side of the screen after any mouse selection. Placing things on the left would actually be worse for me personally. smile

I'd make the 16x16 forum menu icons (transparent) GIF's though. PNG's don't display properly on some browsers (IE6) unless you tweak them, whereas GIF's work OK everywhere. You icons lose their transparency under IE6, resulting in some visual ugliness.

I'd always wondered what the trick was with IE in that regard. big_smile Must say though, I stick with png format just on principle.

Just because a small minority uses right to left language isn't reason to stick a couple of key functions on the right hand side in the 'English' template!

As Paul mentioned, if it bothers you, alter your CSS. What about bottom to top languages, btw? I suppose they are a minority too? What I would personally class as a minority issue is the fact that this subject has only been brought up by one person so far, so everyone else obviously appears quite content with the defaults. big_smile

Plus, one would assume, seeing as only a proportion of the people on the globe actually write/read in a left to right, top to bottom fashion, that the heat map data is skewed and biased towards English and other languages which use that layout.

You'd have to modify footer.php, or make a second stripped down version of it. Not really worth the hassle, to be honest, unless you *really* do want to get rid of the footer.

Change:

WHERE forum_id IN (

Ah, right. I never saw that bit. big_smile

Must be something that's been introduced fairly recently then. I'm running 7.2 here, and that one hasn't exhibited the behaviour. I'd personally drop a report on their mailing-list if you can reproduce the fault with a clean install of pcre directly from the pcre/sourceforge site.

Xsdmx: If no-one pops up some working code before then, I'll get a working copy sorted for you sometime during the week.

He has never actually said it is an extension though, has he? He merely said it lists what extensions are installed.

Matt, why are you using this for the page count? big_smile

$num_pages = ceil($num_users / 10);
