IP.Board 3 Sitemap Generator Task v1.0.5
About the Sitemap Generator Task
This task was originally updated to accommodate my own forums, due to the demand and the fact that no one has made a new task to address the demand I have decided to enhance this task and release it for use. This task uses built in IP.Board methods for generating FURLS, this means that this task is compatible with custom FURL templates.

The task is Improved and built on Google Sitemap Generator for IPB 2.2 by CheetahShrk.

Version 1.0.5
Fixes

Corrected minor typo in gzip process.


Version 1.0.4
Enhancements
Added option to ping ASK! with sitemaps.


Version 1.0.3
Fixes
Localisation bug introduced in 1.0.2 - affects locales that use , as a number seperator.


Version 1.0.2
Fixes
Removed use of old class_XML.php to use the new IP.Board 3, classXML.php method.


Version 1.0.1
Fixes
Fixed an issue where URLS with no SEO Title generated would put old style URLS in sitemap, and not use FURLS.


Version 1
Fixes
[*]Now uses the database class correctly

Just a little bit of a teaser update, front end work is complete for custom markers:



I've altered slightly from the original plan, markers can be split into groups, each group can have their own colour pin and icon!

Thanks !

I have a busy week ahead, then I'm hoping to get an updated version out with custom map markers.

I've been investigating, it looks like it's an issue with locales. You use a comma in float values, but MySQL is expecting a decimal . so it's truncating the value.

I'm just putting together a custom function now so the value is still santized, but it also in the correct format.

[*]Yep [*]I don't think so, I just tested with a partial US zip code. Pretty much anything that works in Google Maps will work in this map [*]Nope, it's an extremely poor way of guessing a location, unless you want a very rough location. I think you would need access to a geo IP service such as maxmind.com for that too.

Lol, you must be bored to find things like that :P

You'll probably figure this out on your own, but to make the Online List stuff work properly, you need to also create an /extensions/coreVariables.php file, with this content:



<?php /* Resets */ $_RESET = array(); /* Make sure our module and section are set */ if ( !isset( $_REQUEST['module'] ) && ( isset( $_REQUEST['app'] ) && $_REQUEST['app'] == 'membermap' ) ) { $_RESET['module'] = 'membermap'; $_RESET['section'] = 'map'; } Since your app only has one module and section, and neither is explicitly set in $this->request, they won't ever get saved to the sessions table, and thus the Online List stuff will never really load the stuff from /extensions/coreExtensions.php to parse it. Here's a quick class for that that I whipped up:

class publicSessions__membermap { public function getSessionVariables() { /* Return */ return array(); } public function parseOnlineEntries( $rows ) { /* Got rows? */ if ( !is_array( $rows ) || !count( $rows ) ) { return $rows; } /* Loopy loo */ foreach ( $rows as $row ) { /* In some other app? */ if ( $row['current_appcomponent'] != 'membermap' ) { $final[ $row['id'] ] = $row; continue; } /* Guess not... */ $row['where_line'] = "Viewing the Member Map"; $row['where_link'] = 'app=membermap'; /* Add to our array */ $final[ $row['id'] ] = $row; } /* Return */ return $final; } }

Import the attached file above into your settings. It will enable delete buttons next to the settings, after you delete those, you will be able to remove the settings group.

Thanks

Not that I can give you an exact answer, but IP.Board should be able to cope with that no problem, IPs have many large clients that use Ip.Board such as NBC and nVidia. I think Charles may be able to give some idea of what kind of hardware is needed to support that many users.

Post in the Peer to peer section, or send a ticket to IPS please. This forum is for feedback only.

I think the OP forgot that organisations like Nvidia and Yahoo use the product. After all, they're organisations of one, right? Right?

I spent the entire time waiting for your video to get to the point, and I still didn't get it. The only thing I could get from the video, 3 and a half minutes of it, is that you like waving your mouse pointer around icons, and somewhere on the internet is a site that uses post icons for every thread.

For bonus points, I then went on to my own IP.Board 3.0.3 installation and created a thread with a post icon, so I could see if you did have a point.

You did not.

So, could you perhaps explain what your problem is, without Youtube this time? Because it sure isn't deprecated post icons (which are right... there...)

Can I make a feature request?

Can we have the ability to ban Bold bbcode for certain users?

And for the record, Articles are a fantastic way for other users to help users, I have re-written a couple of articles myself in the developer section, adding more useful information as I come across it.

You know Tom, I don't know where this mythical documentation for every product in existence you refer to is. You refer to every product you have including a manual, yet... well, lots of software doesn't. I'll do a quick inventory of a sampling of my start menu now (I'll include the OS itself even). I'm excluding "F1 Help" since that's essentially inline help.

Microsoft Windows - No Manual.
Google Chrome - No Manual.
Microsoft Office - No Manual.
Microsoft Visual Studio - No Manual.
MYOB Accounting - Quick Start Guide.
Beyond Compare - No Manual.
Apple iTunes - No Manual.
Kayako SupportSuite - Manual Available!
Microsoft SQL Server - No Manual.
Seapine Surround SCM/Testtrack Pro - Manual Installed!
Stardock Multiplicity - No Manual.

As you can see, lots of stuff with no manual. And you're also completely ignoring what they've said many times - that the majority of their customers prefer articles, guides, inline help, etc over the three hundred page book they printed last time. It doesn't make commercial sense to write an entire manual for three people.

I take it you've never heard of a Service Level Agreement then...

I think you are being really silly.

Nonsense. Both are 'web services companies', both serve 1000s of clients, yeah, that's not apples to oranges at all. Just because one handles servers and one handles code doesn't make one any different from the other.


Until they ignore your request for hours on end. The point is that if they CAN'T provide same day responses to clients, they need to expand their support services.
Sure, I found out my own answers after waiting a few hours, but I shouldn't have to find out my own answers here.
Sure, I could have called in for support, but I shouldn't have to call in for support on a webhosting package (and yes, it wasn't only a license that was purchased, but a webhosting package with that).



Automated replies are not human and do not count, which is why I specified non automated

When emails are sent, and support tickets are opened, it's only proper and polite, from a company perspective to respond to that (a human response) within the same business day. Even something as simple as I'm working on this now will do wonders when dealing with clients. Ignoring your client's ticket (for whatever reason) for 14 hours is unacceptable, and it only shows that you don't care about your client's business. It's a brush off, it's rude, and it's horrible business practice.

If any of my clients opened up a ticket, it would be responded to within the same business day. Now, sure, I'm just a one man show, and have only a few clients, but still, that response would be there within the same day. NOT doing so is just wrong.

IPS Staff: I hate to say this but the IPS Upgrades are becoming a real inconvenient Annoyance.

What am I talking about? Everytime there is a service update to IPB (2.0.1, 3.0.2, etc) the upgrade creates havok with the hooks that I have installed. Not only do I have to disable the hooks, but, they have to be un-installed and then re-installed. The upgrades are not anticipating already installed hooks and adjusting for them and it's becoming an annoyance.

Does IPS plan on fixing this problem or is this going to be a regular 'romp and stomp' action with every upgrade/update? For one, I would love to see this corrected.
