Ok try the newest version, I think i ixed this, thanks for the -debug report too man, much easier to fix this issue

As far as the post on changing credits.txt to credits.SIG that wont solve anything, at no point in time to i look for credits.SIG in the scripts.

 

[Nam01]

it did for me

worked for me havnt crashed since i did it

you should update, the problem was i didnt check for the path /data/forum and see if it existed, now it does and creates it if it doesnt exist, so you creating it and putting credits.sig fixed the problem by making the path, but credits.sig needs to be .txt or the credits page doesnt show the complete credits

I was still wondering, I havn't gotten a chance to reset my server yet... letting the players have some fun

Did you fix the posts yet? If there are too many of them or they don't all fit in that box they get cut off. (Like the actuall text) I'm not sure if its the same for topics?

I have a few ideas that might make this a tad better. What about an item to open the forums such as a book or something rather than having to type [viewforums? Could possably add an admin functions stone to it later with some customization options in it too. Anyhow just a couple things that came to mind when I saw this.

 

[mark01970]

Excellent concept and follow through. I will be using this on my shard for suire.

Great idea about the book, but as far as the admin functions, can you name a few things that you would want? I can't think of many things that would be useful enough to put on the stone.

 

[Joeku]

Maybe you could set a minimum/maximum character limit on posts. There could also be preset moderators (GM+) or you could make it so that the admin hand-sets the forum moderators.

 

[Jeff]

Maybe you could set a minimum/maximum character limit on posts.

Can you elaborate?

 

[Joeku]

Like... on the RunUO forums, you have to have a minimum of 10 characters and a maximum of 10000 characters to post a message. You could do the same with this, to prevent spam.

Another idea: enable an auto-cleanup to delete topics more than ____ days old.

 

[Jeff]

Big update check 1st post for update information. Keep the ideas rolling

1 thing id like to see is a cuss word blocker or something that asterics it out. mainly for shards with younger peeps on it.

p.s. nice work and thx for sharing your work.

That will be done for sure in RunUO 2.0, reason I wont do it now is this.

Their is a algorithm called Boyer-Moore, it allows you to search string in a very quick and convenient way. Instead of writing this algorithm out, it is already built into .Net 2.0 under String.Contains(). Soon as RunUO 2.0 is released I can implement it.

Thanks for the suggestion tho.

Hmm... I was wondering if there was a way to unsticky threads? When I updated to your newest version if stickied all the exsisting threads.

If not they are easily deletable..

Ah, damn, well what happened was I hadnt been saving the enum for the threadtype, now that I am, it automatically made everything a sticky. Bummer, I will see if I can put something in the next release. Otherwise if you dont want to wait just delete them Sorry hehe.
