Forum remodelling
So, as you've noticed, I finally got around to modding this forum. Here are the new features:
Anyway, those are the mods. You'll notice one other change if you look closely at your profile: I've made a clone of subSilver called subFiver, now selected by default. This is where I'm going to rebuild the 5M.net skin. It may not be soon (I'm thinking of getting someone with actual experience to help), but it's coming. |
Awesome! You actually did something meaningful in less than 6 months! It's a miracle!
|
Expression of the glory of Zeke, the Mighty, for completing this task. Every other word end in eth.
|
Awesome. Awesome-awesome. Awwwwsome.
ETD: joke with political content :? |

Although I gotta say, that "save as draft" thing is really weird. I can't tell if I've actually posted or not. What's the purpose of it? |
I dunno. However, I agree that with the current administration, I have to wonder too.
|
All right, can this NOT turn into politics for no reason? Remember how I lost friends when I dared to attempt a civil political discussion thread in my own forum? Is idiotic sniping going to turn out better, or is it allowed on only one side, or what?
Anyway. I found a simple fix for the flag thing: I've simply removed the country-name text and left the flag. I think it looks better that way anyhow. As for saving drafts, it's just there for those who want it. Those who don't will get used to the extra button. |

Okay, why is Puerto Rico a country?

Um, sorry, I didn't know that asking "what does this button do?" was politics. I have never seen the "save as draft" function before on any board. I was wondering what need the makers of phpBB thought the mod would serve. |
This is all cool, but...
You should fill it with cream. |

Yes, it was Scooter and e of pi I was talking to. And Scooter, I appreciate the edit, but it wasn't necessary -- I was just cutting off any further politics, not telling you to remove what was there. That usually just leads to confusion, as we just saw.

Whoa! I forgot to list one of the coolest mods! It's on the list now (second last item).
I've successfully added custom titles to the memberlist and even made them sortable. Unfortunately, the last post column, which I really wanted sortable, is coded in a way that makes it much harder -- I would basically have to rework that whole mod. I may in fact do so, but not till I get some other things done. (For those interested in the details, most columns in the memberlist are simply called up from the user database, and can be sorted before listing anyone. The last post column, however, is implemented by searching the post database to see when the given user last posted. Thus it can't be sorted in advance. To make that possible, I'll need to add a field to the user database storing the user's last post time, and get it to update each time someone posts. It won't be terrifically difficult -- more like challenging -- but it probably won't be quick either.) |
