Hi,

I got a around 50 MySQL error reports yesterday with a similar query in to Ajax.php. Can anyone help me to find out what they were trying to do?

2+ years or just in time for vB6. ...

[Hemanth]

Why not? I heard this argument all the time when they were messing with vB4. I agreed to that to some extend because of the legacy vB3 code they had to use as a base; but not any more.

IMO, they shouldn't use redirects at all. i.e. thread IDs and postids should be kept the same for upgrades.

[Hemanth]

God... I waited and stayed on 3.8 for 2+ years for this abomination. I feel old and thinking of leaving the forum business altogether.

But then again vB6 ought to be good, right? righ...

Steve, Thank you for your help and support in my early years with vB; you will be missed. And best of with you future endeavors.

I was also wondering the same thing. As an admin user, would it be possible to use any vBulletin files to write to the root directory (assuming it's set as 777)?

@Zachery: Any idea how they...

[Hemanth]

Yeah, I already did that. It's better than nothing....

[Hemanth]

Hmm .. I was afraid of that. Thanks for the confirmation Lynne.

If any of you guys have some inputs I'm all ears.

Hi,

I would like know how to censor email addresses from posts. In PHPBB I used to use *@*.com . Is something similar possible?

Thank you,
Hemanth

Try freelancer.com . I still don't understand why you need someone from those specific locations though.

[Hemanth]

Good work guys.



I guess just clicking the Okay button (without entering a username) will do the job....

Well ,it is some what true. After months of testing, we just pushed IE7 to all our business users last week. This entire week was a fricking nightmare. Hundreds of support tickets related to ActiveX errors,...

[Hemanth]

Thanks for the review mate.

May I suggest cleaning up the javascript:// links in your navtab items.


e.g.

Replace:

<a href="javascript://"

First of all I appreciate IB for taking the high road and accepting the newcomer as a healthy competition.

Now, I really like the fresh look and feel & some interesting Web 2.0 features...

[Hemanth]

Oh my God. Is this really happening? Possibly the biggest news of the year!!

ASmallOrange is really good for a startup forum. I used to use them before moving to a VPS and then to a dedi box.

Upgrade your server before going for vB4. Double the RAM, get better processors and a fast drive.

[Hemanth]

I believe you're referring to the Human Verification Options. It is exacly same as vB 3.8.

How the hell are you running a community man? Each payment is verified by the staff to avoid fraud, so stop whining....
