Re: Update from Rudedog and the forums.
 

don't mind the default skins and that messed up stuff on the right hand side, once I get some sleep I will take on the next step.

thanks for being patient guys.

Re: Update from Rudedog and the forums.
 

What's next

backup server files
backup the new phpBB3 db
clean up server files
clean up db files
save everything localy
start migration process to the actual final board which will be vB.

this is only temp guys please bear with us.

Oh also get some away from PC time freak:

If you receive this message, the new forums are back up and on the final software!

I really hope you guys see this email.

Please report problems and or issues to me ASAP. See announcements at the top of the forum(all pages the same) regarding old forum and how to get your avatar and sig.

Thanks for bareing with me, now I have a few things to do and we should be good to go!

old moderators, don't worry I'm working on permissions and the private moderator forum only. It's there you just may not be able to see it.

So there's no old aa.com board style?

it may not be 100% like the old one, but I am planning on it. I've found a close vB style that once things settle down, I will start work on it.

It may be a couple days before I get to it, but this is not going to be the final style

Just trying to clean things up, make sure everything is working then I will start the style update.

Also please let me know if you can get to your info over at the old forums.

look like its working...keep it up rude!

ahhhh i hate this default template

Good job Rude

Yay Fast reply is here!!


But no signatures show yet (yes i know you must redo them i redid mine.)

hey rude id be happy to help you with the header image if needed like on the aa.com template.



i like this layout, now just needs a good theme and some ranks again like aa.com

oh and is it possible to put the offtopic subforum above the tech and intro forum so its first under the lounge section?

Milla - looking into it (can you try just text for now, could be a permission problem)
elstatec - will let you know on the heads , Moved off topic to top of section.

keep letting me know issues guys, I want to get this all worked out before moving on to template and other features.

vB is great, there is just a lot of backend stuff to do with simply things like sigs in 5 different sections.

I responded to your PM rude, but also I don't have any saved PM's in my inbox.

What about pics from the photo threads and stuff? I see {img}www.pic.com{/img} but nothing shows up. Is it the same kind of deal as with our sigs?

i'll keep looking for other things, but these are kind of minor. the board seems to be working well.

looking into the sig now, the img tags are correct and I have a ticket in to vB for that

I can go in and edit then save the post and they will show for some reason.

Can someone try and post a (small) image in this thread please.

Also can someone try and post an image via the img tag in your sig along with text and or text only.

this will help, thanks guys.

For the most part, it's all back end settings and nothing major, just a pain in my ass LOL.

how do you use quick reply?

click on the pen and paper icon in the bottom right of a post.

rude offtopic is now the fourth option on the menu

loololoollo pic

Sweet

Milla, I just noticed that. I forgot to it save list order before. should be all set now.

How is everyone doing with sigs? I see your's is working now Milla.

we're getting there.

How does everyone like the email notifications (with the post text in the body) now?

that was one of the biggest features (on the front end) that I missed.

working on rank now, however I'm afraid to implement it because I have to redo the counters and any posts lost will be deducted from your post count. However with vB I can easily go in and change that on the fly.

let me know what you think.

quick reply is gold. what do the new smilies look like?

My sig seems to work now

Have no idea LOL, still looking for some. I've come across some but don't know how they will look on a darker background. I may have to wait for the theme before looking for smilies.

m00nraker it's working here, I can see it

there was a thread made about 2 years ago dedicated to new smilies, there were alot of good ones in that one. but anyways, whats up with the url and image tags on some of the threads?

Wow, this site is running smoother than ever.

FYI guys, I will be running the search index tonight, it can and may take up to 8+ hours to run, but at least we will have an index when we're done.

If all goes well, I'm looking into the ranks and just need to find out if anyone will loose post counts if I rerun the user counters( to update peoples ranks)

More on that tomorrow.

Do you need any help? lol i mean i dont think its a bad idea to create a paypal thing so we can donate some dough.

Can we unleash the <marquee> tag please? Scrolling images and text can lead to much hilarity.

are gif avatars going to be allowed?

I think that would be a good idea. Id be willing to donate

Thanks guys, as much as I don't like doing that the vb lic has me a little tight this month.

jim@landi.net is my paypal.

YES!!!!!
