  1. Is there any plan at some point to allow third party developers the opportunity to have the error code information for their resources made somewhere publicly accessible, like here on the IPS site? I know Mark's been working on this to track all of IP.Board's error codes, but it'd be great if we could add our own error codes into this too. I can include the Excel file of these error codes I created for my app in a documentation folder for it, but that's really only good for the site owner, not the members who might see these errors too.


  2. Yeah, that's true.



    I wish there were a way to change the messages being displayed about bots doing things like that.



    Something along the lines of "Google is being told to bugger off". ;)



    It's been like this for a while, but hopefully they'll fix this soon:

  3. Always remember, if you see a search engine spider doing something that you don't think they have permission to do, it typically means they are actually indexing an error page telling them they don't have permission to do whatever it was they were doing.


  4. on his forum



    What does that mean? Are you talking about the registration terms people agree to on his forum? Or the license agreement he agreed to when he bought his forum?

  5. No. No, there is not.



    Thanks, I didn't think so. I'm no SEO guru, but I always thought they meant the same thing, and Google confirmed that when I couldn't find any sites mentioning there being a difference. :lol:
  6. If they did something like this, then some folks would complain that they should be included in the group. Should a person who created one really big nice mod be in the group? Or should a person who created 10 small mods that don't really work be in the group? It's too hard to come up with reliable guidelines that they can set as the group requirement, and IPS has enough on their plate as it is.


  7. I'm all for stronger passwords... just as long as the feature is suggestive, like a color coded meter showing how strong the password is. I HATE sites that force you to have at least 8 characters, contain 1 number and letter, and/or change your password every X amount of time.



    Amen. It's requirements like that that force people to have to write down their passwords, thus defeating the purpose of the security gains you're supposed to be getting from having these requirements.
  8. The issue is easily reproducible using the hooks mentioned that have this issue. The tracker ticket sunrisecc linked to above shows where this was reported as an issue with the 3.0.1 -> 3.0.2 upgrade. If the issue is with my hooks, I'll gladly fix them if I knew what the problem was.

    EDIT: It only seems to affect hooks that add templates to skin_global, not other groups like skin_boards, as hooks like Group Name Indicator and Members Online Today are unaffected by this issue. This leads me to believe the problem is not with the hooks themselves, but with how skin_global is being handled by IP.Board.


  9. Simple, perhaps stupid question: How will this update affect plugin blocks created in CCS on 3.0.2?


    Will they still work or will I have to create the blocks again in order to keep it working? Since plugins are created from source of board..that might be changed by this update...



    Thanks for explanation



    Elanor



    They should not be affected in any way.

  10. Okay. Been speaking with him, should have got it sorted now. Despite the fact that the IPB guide says cache etc should be 777, they work fine on 755. Someone please tell me why we're asked to chmod to 777 when 755 works fine?



    Because that varies depending on the server setup, and your setup is uncommon compared to most. Your host should have communicated this to you already.

  11. you say upload all fiels for the upgrade from 3.0.2 to 3.0.3 ?



    If I do this surly I would lose lots of modifications right ?



    If those modifications edited source files, then yes. If they are hooks or applications, then you should be fine (for the most part).
