myBB RC1 by theguy on 12-11-2003 at 12:09 AM

why doesn't this forum have it? i don't mean to be rude, but the  forums could get it. it looks nice on other forums.


RE: myBB RC1 by martin on 12-11-2003 at 02:14 AM

DZ is a lazy admin (see here

and these forums are probaly to active to shutdown for an update


RE: myBB RC1 by bach_m on 12-11-2003 at 02:31 AM

i wouldn't go too far to say "too active" there was a 20 minute period when noone did anything here about and hour ago...

Because it was just released last night?!

I can't just go ahead and upgrade... I need to do lots of preparation, which I've already started. Maybe early next week.
RE: myBB RC1 by WDZ on 12-11-2003 at 04:48 AM

Blah... dodgy reputation system... I haven't decided if I even want that enabled here.


RE: myBB RC1 by Hova on 12-11-2003 at 05:06 AM

I suggest against it really.


RE: myBB RC1 by surfichris on 12-11-2003 at 07:41 AM

Let admins/mods/l33ts give reputations?


RE: myBB RC1 by Kryptonate on 12-11-2003 at 08:46 AM

Nice, it's out :) might download it next week if I've got some more time :banana:


RE: myBB RC1 by Sk3tch on 12-11-2003 at 08:49 AM

yeh.. the reputations are dodgy lol.. Chris Boulton's idea seemed good, but im ok with whatever :P

:banana:


RE: myBB RC1 by sock on 12-11-2003 at 03:06 PM

Humm...... I need a board with Hebrew support......

Does MyBB have a Hebrew version by any chance? (=



(That is, translation + having everything RTL.:p)

From what I gather, you have to translate it yourself for now. ;)

As for the reputation system, I'm happy either way, whether it's used here or not. :)

hmm last time u updated it, the shoutbox and other stuff were gone :undecided: i hope it wont happen this time :banana:

RE: myBB RC1 by bach_m on 12-12-2003 at 07:16 PM

back everything up ;);)


RE: myBB RC1 by WDZ on 12-12-2003 at 07:28 PM

Yeah, because I wanted to do some careful testing of my custom pages.

I'll just keep the board closed longer this time so I can test everything. I don't want to let people use the board if there's some major security hole or bug... :dodgy:


RE: myBB RC1 by bach_m on 12-12-2003 at 07:37 PM

makes sence. when u gonna do the update?


RE: myBB RC1 by WDZ on 12-12-2003 at 07:44 PM

I don't feel like doing it on the weekend... maybe Tuesday. :p


RE: myBB RC1 by fluffy_lobster on 12-12-2003 at 07:45 PM

I'm loving surfi's comments in some of the php code of rc1 :lol:

A lot of spelling mistakes though :dodgy: u might wanna fix those


RE: myBB RC1 by WDZ on 12-12-2003 at 07:54 PM

:dodgy:

Yeah, surfi, fix your spelling mistakes. :XP:


RE: myBB RC1 by fluffy_lobster on 12-12-2003 at 07:57 PM

wdz could make a start by putting the space in between two of the sentences in that holding page after you've posted a message :P


RE: myBB RC1 by WDZ on 12-12-2003 at 08:59 PM

I'll fix every spelling error that's reported here (after the upgrade), but surfi has to fix them in the MyBB release... :p


RE: myBB RC1 by bach_m on 12-13-2003 at 09:02 PM

i never knew about htat page.... ( invere forgot my pwd either :P)


RE: myBB RC1 by fluffy_lobster on 12-13-2003 at 09:10 PM

I have no idea when I went to that page but whenever it was I noticed it and it still is never there.

I just went to the mybb bug reporting forum... It's hilarious, there are all these mybbugs that we all found ages ago and wdz fixed accordingly (well, most of them :P)
They could have saved so much time by fixing them when they cropped up here...


RE: myBB RC1 by surfichris on 12-14-2003 at 12:24 PM

Three reasons why:

1) WDZ never reported them on the myBB forums

2) He didnt give me the code that he changed

3) I dont have access to the code here.

Now about the spelling mistakes that are related to variables, they are caused by a rewrite kasper did on functions.php to make the system alot more efficiant and server friendly - these were expected. Thats why myBB is not a 'Gold' release, it is still in the testing stages.

Still a very good forum thing!
RE: myBB RC1 by fluffy_lobster on 12-14-2003 at 12:34 PM

Yeah, I hope I don't sound too harsh, myBB still r0x0rs :P

I've posted about a couple of them on the community, hope that helps :P

Because I thought I'd eventually get developer access again, and developers don't need to report bugs. :-/

You didn't ask for it. :p

Good, I don't like anyone taking stuff without my permission. :dodgy:

I really doubt that those changed helped... fewer lines of code doesn't necessarily mean more efficiency. There's also some redundant crap, like assigning variables to themselves. :rolleyes: All it did was add more complexity to the code and cause more bugs. Did he even test/check his new code or compare it with the original? I doubt it. Also, some parts of functions.php were changed and others weren't... it's inconsistent.

End rant. :)

Yes, we did a comparison and the new functions.php does end up more efficiant on most pages which use the functions from it. The same with the new templates class.

The code was checked against the original one and we had a new copy of the development forums setup where Kasper, Blue and a load of others tested the new file to make sure that the permissions system and alike worked properly
RE: myBB RC1 by Chrono on 12-15-2003 at 08:32 AM

wdz should be a developer, is as simple as that, he would help a log in the bug-fixing part (and maybe to add some of his stuff :banana)

Agreed, but we have certainly nothing to do in this project... nor in this arguments...

Well if the bug-fixing is being done by logs then we need all the help we can get :P

Who are you replying to? :-/
RE: myBB RC1 by sock on 12-18-2003 at 05:09 AM

Umm



About the reputation thingie..... don't we have that already with the user ratings? :-/


RE: myBB RC1 by WDZ on 12-18-2003 at 05:32 AM

Kinda.

It's different though... kinda. :-/

:p

The repuatation system is more complex... only certain usergroups can vote, and the votes of some groups count for more points than others. Also, there's little images next to posts, and voters can leave comments which can be viewed in the user cp.

* WDZ is probably forgetting some details, but who cares? :p

yeah pretty good :D

i suppose votes from ppl with low reputation are counts less than those from ppl with nice reputations :-/
RE: myBB RC1 by Wabz on 12-18-2003 at 06:28 PM

:dodgy:  Oh well i cant see me having a very high rating  :refuck:


RE: myBB RC1 by reisyboy on 01-04-2004 at 12:39 PM

sounds very good the user rating when are we updating WDZ :D(A)?

I have no idea, really. The holidays are over now, so I plan to do some more work this week...
RE: myBB RC1 by sock on 01-06-2004 at 12:34 AM

Talking about RC1, wasn't this board supposed to be upgraded to it like 2 weeks ago? :-/



Oh, and does the "reputation system" replace the old user ratings? :abubu:
