Glest Board Changes

[Gabbe]

ah okay, ye i`ve noticed ;)

[silnarm]

Post times seem to be shown as server time (??) now... not sure exactly when this happened as I haven't been overly active of recent, but noticed just now...

Test Post.

EDIT// Works fine for me... You did make sure you set your timezone/time offset in the profile page, right? (at the moment, time zones can only be changed in the default theme, but once set, work on any theme. Not sure if the time offset (the old system where you merely specified hour offsets, with DST used as the server uses it) still works).

Your picture looks... odd though... Why does it show the timezone there??? Might be because I used the local date string javascript function, which formats the time and date the way it does for the region your computer is set for... Does anyone else see that? Mine displays simply this:

Hmm...it's fine for me. Maybe Silnarm should try to switch to the original theme, reset the timezone, and then try it again? Or maybe the mod has a problem with that timezone?
Hmm, is Silnarm still using the basic forum time, or the timezone. I remember before it also posted as server time on the "basic" one...

My best guess is that the old server offset is being overriden by the new timezones. Plus, the default "timezone" is to use the server timezone... I really need to get that theme patch in soon, I suppose.

News: Megaglest 3.3.7 - Beta 2 is released!

I'm pretty sure this is wrong.

• the link is wrong.
  
• Isn't it supposed to be 3.3.7.2

After trying out the table, I see that it isn't really that good...kinda fails.
Do you think you could try to implement this mod? Maybe somehow and hopefully it'll work with no issues...
Table Plus BBCodes
Or maybe you can create something like this yourself...  :D But then it probably wouldn't be approved because it would be similar to the other mod...  :-\

increase the ranks or change them!

cheers. great topic ;)

Ugh, MG is Titi's job... Handling that specific news item I prefer to reserve for him, since I have no clue what's happening with MG, and am always a few versions behind it... I recommend you PM him, to attract his attention to the outdated news line... :-[

@Tables: hmm... I can do what that mod did with a little theme modification, I think... I'll play around and see if I can't improve how user generated tables look in the next version of the Glest Theme.

@Warlord: What?

[silnarm]

You did make sure you set your timezone/time offset in the profile page, right? (at the moment, time zones can only be changed in the default theme, but once set, work on any theme. Not sure if the time offset (the old system where you merely specified hour offsets, with DST used as the server uses it) still works).

Changing back to the default theme and resetting did the trick, it was previously working though. We recently went to DST here, so I'm guessing that's when it broke.

Yeah, as Ultifd pointed out before, there's a bug related to DST, and the mod should fix it. But... You can't access the mod on any theme other than the default at the moment... :(

[Zoythrus]

Wow...this month we have (almost) 2000 new "members"...3000 next month?  :o

and only 4 actually stay on the forums....

[ultifd]

Yeah, everyone knows that.

Omega, please try to strengthen the anti spam resources again...If it's mainly that database problem, perhaps let's just try to ask whoever...Jose?

Because we don't want 3,000, 4,000, or 5,000+ fake members a month or Porn Spam...(Jeez first thing I had to do for the New Year...) Note: People, you don't need to post in them...us moderators and admins have eyes.

100% agreed,

Haha i laughed my ass of of that spam XD and some thought that it was a real person o.O HAHA

I've been experimenting, but am still wary of converting to the RC yet, because, as stable as I found it, it's still an RC and is officially warned not to use on sites besides for testing. However, SMF 2.0 does contain a LOT of security upgrades, and just playing around with some of them leads me to think they will end up very effective. However, for our current version, there isn't really much of anything left that I haven't already tried.

I have a feeling that updating to 1.1.12 may have broken some of the addons (tabs in posting, for example), but the security ones seem fine, but I'll try and run some tests when I get the time, make sure they are working and all.

Of course, it *is* true that eventually, when we do upgrade to SMF 2.0, we will need access to the server. Either I'll need an FTP account or the Glest Team will have to do it when they have the time. But it's been an RC for a while, and still will be for a bit longer, so that's not for a bit.

Of course, you can never remove all bots. Everything has them, from online games to forums to chat rooms, they cannot really be completely eradicated, which, of course, is what you have moderator privileges for: to remove said posts. And of course, should they ever get really disruptive, they can get banned. ;)
