Forum update

Post by Werner Van Loock »

Done some updating today on the forum, removed, moved and altered some sections and topics.

Soon I'll try to add the email thingy, just hope it doens't go wrong.

Also made Rob and myself moderator, so we can move, delete and edit topics and posts. And some other stuff.

But if the board would receive more traffic, more moderators are needed, so you can always apply.

RSS feed

Post by Werner Van Loock »

Well, I've been busy on the dark side of the board and tested a RSS feed modification and it works perfect.

Go to the following URL and everything is explained there.

http://www.clubstylus.be/phpBB2/smartfeed_url.php

But it works a lot better then the email thingy.

For the people having a Yahoo account, you even can add the feed to "my Yahoo"

Also the blogs have RSS feeds and also the main clubstylus page. So if you add them all to a RSS client or the "my yahoo" page you always know when somehting has changed or has been added.

Apparently the email thingy was causing some problems with the mailserver giving a debug message instead of the topic after a post.

Should be fixed now, but please report stuff like that in the future.

Changed the "mods" forum to "(Re)Build progress & (would be) mods" so that there's a place to show your progress/mods or even just show your car.

:D

I've made a serious forum update. Went from version 2.0.19 to 3.0.0

Benefit is that there's a attachment upload possibility now. So no more off site image uploads wich dissapear after a while. Don't forget to press the "add the file" button when you select a attachment.

Also the pictures are automatically thumbnailed, so no need to resize.

Thanks,

After a while it's also faster as this version uses a cache, so no need for the server to regenerate everything everytime

I also added a script that reduces the images placed directly like the big brakes topic, they're clickable.

Don't think it accepts video. Use youtube and put a link in here, that should work

Werner , how do people register now , Freddie Murray has tried but couldn't find any pointers etc ---- also can't see any attach photo pointer either . In my case , normally direct from '' my pictures '' on the laptop ?
