Why? You haven't even added a limit to those two queries you posted above, so obviously they will return all matches.

That first query:

                $result = $db->query('SELECT t.id FROM '.$db->prefix.'posts AS p INNER JOIN '.$db->prefix.'topics AS t ON t.id=p.topic_id INNER JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forums AS f ON f.id=t.forum_id LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forum_perms AS fp ON (fp.forum_id=f.id AND fp.group_id='.$pun_user['g_id'].') WHERE (fp.read_forum IS NULL OR fp.read_forum=1) AND p.id IN('.implode(',', $search_ids).')'.$forum_sql.' GROUP BY t.id', true) or error('Unable to fetch topic list', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

should be:

                $result = $db->query('SELECT t.id FROM '.$db->prefix.'posts AS p INNER JOIN '.$db->prefix.'topics AS t ON t.id=p.topic_id INNER JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forums AS f ON f.id=t.forum_id LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'forum_perms AS fp ON (fp.forum_id=f.id AND fp.group_id='.$pun_user['g_id'].') WHERE (fp.read_forum IS NULL OR fp.read_forum=1) AND p.id IN('.implode(',', $search_ids).')'.$forum_sql.' GROUP BY t.id LIMIT 50', true) or error('Unable to fetch topic list', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

Do the same for the second query.


stats.punres will have a new number 1 forum soon.

The point? This board isn't commercial, hence any responses are from people volunteering their time to responding. That approach is hardly liable to make people jump at your behest.

It is not my viewpoint alone, Jeremie. It is good form, as you full well know, that localised forums are posted upon with posts in the native language of the board. That is the exact reason why the localised, country specific support boards were created. It is merely the fact that the French site is no longer Pun based that makes this situation different.

Btw, I never said specifically that I personally could not read/write/speak French. I merely suggested that all members being able to read topics was preferable. smile

Silly me for expecting this extension not to royally F**K UP EVERYTHING !!!

Out of every extension on this forum, this is the only one that broke everything so much that i had to rebuild my forum from a backup.

You installed it on a live site?

Ok I will look at this again later on when I am done with the next extension I am curently working on.
Shouldn't be to long.

Doesn't one think, for future reference, that concentrating on one extension at a time and sorting  'quirks' straight away is preferable when releasing an extension, than working on several and getting around to it as and when?

Have you tried setting them as inline? Personally, I'd change those radio buttons to a select, and keep them in style with the options above them.

Setting the id count would affect the pkey setting. However, if you haven't suffered this problem previously, I'd be looking at that mod, not altering the DB to work around something which seems broken, as it will break things again if so.

I'll retract my earlier suggestion about using English in the topic. Obviously, without a specific French forum now, on here is the logical place to have discussions. My apologies for not checking on the status of the French site prior to my suggestion. smile

http://forums.bauchan.org/devforum/java … tiquote.js

I did add a check_quoted function in that script for calling on window load, if required, but I just explode the cookie for the id's in post.php and viewtopic.php to use whilst recursing the loop. No arsing about waiting for all page content to load that way, before they are marked as selected/unselected. Plus, you are processing the quoted post(s) content via the normal forum methods, so it negates the need for having a seperate parsing function in the js file.

This topic is all about french translation of PunBB, so we thought it was not a problem. Sorry for the inconvenience.

It's not an inconvenience or problem as such. smile It's just that it's preferable if the rest of us can read the topics too. You never know when one of us may want to chip in for any reason. big_smile

Is there any appropriate (i.e. french) forum here were this topic could be moved to?

Good question. I've just had a peek, and it would appear the French forum is Flux related now.

http://punbb.informer.com/wiki/support

Looks like this may be the only place, unless another French forum has appeared.  smile The Dev's or Mod's may know of another.

I can't see why any server related setting would cause that specific problem. I would expect something server related to affect more than one specific script.

With regards to upgrading, you update your existing installation. You don't need to transfer anything across. Obviously make sure that you have upto date backups of your existing setup and DB, however. Upgrade info is knocking about on here somewhere. Check the Wiki. It may be in there.

I honestly can't suggest anything else, offhand. I'm not exactly familiar with the new query builder. One of the 1.3* chaps may be able to proffer a suggestion.

Try changing this line:

FROM'          => 'topics AS t, posts AS p'

to:

FROM'          => 'topics AS t INNER JOIN posts AS p'

It may need a LEFT JOIN if that doesn't work.

Agree with you. It will be implemented in the next version of pun_quote.
What method do you suggest to determine whether client's JavaScript is enabled at server?

Just as an example, (I never thought to mention it previously), there is a live example on my testbed forum.

http://forums.bauchan.org/devforum/forums.php

If you log in with the following credentials:

Username: testuser
Password: testpass123

you can see in the CSS, topic view source and js source how I've done it.


p.s: There is also an alternative multi-quote system in progress on there which may be another line to think on with regards to the pun_quote setup. It uses the traditional quote system, but can span multiple pages in a topic and doesn't require the post info loading in the normal output HTML. Just thought it may be worthwhile having a peek at, if you're curious. smile

Isn't there a format that is commonly supported? What formats are nativly supported by Windows? Only zip? Because if gzip is also supported, this would fit for both, *nix and Windows users.

Not that I know of. Prior to Win2000, M$ didn't have any archive extraction utilities as standard anyhows, if I remember correctly. Not sure what they have these days though, other than zip support.

Besides, it has pretty much become a norm now for cross system applications to be available in tgz, bz and zip download formats.
