Posted: Mon Oct 27, 2008 2:21 am Post subject: Suikox Forums Upgrade Planned |
|
|
In the coming week(end) the Suikox forums will be moved to phpBB3. Due to various issues with the legacy forums we've been running, the decision has been made to port over to phpbb3 asap.
What does this mean to you?
1. These forums will be disabled during the upgrade process. This must occur to allow the upgrade to get an exact copy of all threads and the like.
2. user ranks will be destroyed. Horribly destroyed. phpBB3 does not allow HTML code for user ranks (for security reasons). This means we're all going to lose our cool user ranks.
3. Your stats and the like will no longer be displayed on the profile page. Potch, soldiers, etc will no longer be available.
4. ALL nation forums will be carried over
There will be some other oddities that come with this move, but hopefullly it will be smooth. _________________ ______ "We're still flying"

Upgrade completed. I think it went okay. I've tested a lot of things and they all seem okay. If anything isn't working, let me know either by posting here or via PM.
New stuff!
- Spoiler tag. You can see
[spoiler:5k1fgy0p]This is a spoiler[/spoiler:5k1fgy0p]
- Suikox v1 Recap with SOD Text. Click on someone's profile and then click on the Suikox 1 tab
Yup... that's all the new stuff. Maybe there's something else, but I can't think of it.
Problems: All imported posts, when replied to will require you to uncheck the disable bbcode and smiley... for some reason the import disables this on all replies. Weird, not sure why it's doing it but I probably won't check into.
[edit: The search index is being rebuilt. It's probably going to take a day and a half to rebuild it _________________ ______ "We're still flying"

Maybe it's just me, but I can't seem to get the IMG or URL codes to work. Hum.
Looks wonderful, though! Great work. _________________

Oh my, this is very nice. I haven't had time to explore the features, but the design is just my taste.^^ _________________

I like the look of the forums too, but I would prefer another colour for the font of the posts and the font of the text of the member who wrote the post (for example the poster above me: "by (a very light grey) Goldy (a nice blue) on Mon Nov ..... (very light grey again)" or the text in the signatures (like Calvin's). But maybe it's only me (and I simply need new glasses ^^).
But other than that: Thanks fuji! |

Would that affect the "View new posts" function? I've noticed that sometimes, when there are new post indicators on the index, nothing will show up when I click "View new posts" while other times it may show a couple (but not all) of the results. _________________
