Re: FAQ: Copyright

Copyright - good topic:
I am working on an edited "release" of PunBB right now that would make it easier for beginners, with a number of useful mods already installed.
Do I need to ask the mod authors for permission?

FluxBB - v1.4.8

Re: FAQ: Copyright

No, mods are released under the GPL: any copyright that the mod authors have added to the code need to be left intact though

oh well was worth as shot

Re: FAQ: Copyright

Your text is just a bit too long: make it shorter and it won't wrap wink
Alternatively, wait and see if anyone knows the proper CSS to make it not wrap

Re: FAQ: Copyright

i know it's a bit long yeah, just testing my web skillz out etc wink

if anyone knows the proper css and don't mind letting me in on how to make it show bonus. if not im happy to just leave rickards copyright info because as i've said my copyright info is on my homepage already so it shouldn't really matter i think cool

Re: FAQ: Copyright

Try adding ".conr {white-space: nowrap}" in the css file.

I'm guessing that's ok smile

Re: FAQ: Copyright

126 queries? You're going to run into some serious issues tongue

Re: FAQ: Copyright

Yes, please fix that. People might think PunBB is running 126 queries. Oh, the horror smile

what sort of issues?!

i dont know what those queries are any way

how do i fix it?

Re: FAQ: Copyright

anyone?

Re: FAQ: Copyright

Queries are the "orders" that are sent to the database. In other words, just to open that one file, your website made contact with the database 126 times, which probably makes it slow, which is NOT a property of PunBB...
Just post your file here.

Re: FAQ: Copyright

No, don't post it here: this isn't the place to debug his install.
If you want to try figuring out where those queries are coming from, make a new topic in Troubleshooting wink

Re: FAQ: Copyright

Sorry wink
