Tags and commas

[forteanajones]

Thanks. I just wasn't sure if there was an existing workaround or not. Will continue hunting over there.

I am working on a new forum where the threads need to be very well-organized. I was hoping to use tags, but many of my strings contain commas in them. Thread prefixes would also work, but we would have...

[forteanajones]

Hm, I just realized that the text strings we would use for tags will often need to contain commas. The only way I can think of around that is to locate or create a modificiation of some sort. Have you...

[forteanajones]

Cool, I will begin researching methods for creating large numbers of tags and prefixes.

Zachery, is there any way you could research the upper limit question for prefixes, or direct me to...

[forteanajones]

Thanks, Zachery. I really appreciate the speedy reply and quick breakdown. Clearly such a monster would be a huge undertaking for a database engineer.

Can thread prefixes and tags even...

My client is dedicating a set of forums to a specific topic, and has asked me to look into the feasibility of creating one sub-forum per sub-topic. I pushed back initially, and then he talked me into...

Assuming you guys think vb_test.php is actually worth maintaining, might I suggest adding a port specification section and some commenting? Because after all this troubleshooting, I wound up testing...

[forteanajones]

Steve, can you help me understand how vb_test.php knows what port it's supposed to use for MySQL?...

[forteanajones]

Well, I appreciate your quick replies, but I'm afraid that page is another dead-end.



Config.php is not used for vb_test.php, so far as I know.

This doesn't seem...

I just stopped and started the vbulletin test db a few times, verified that the permissions are all still there, and re-ran the test a couple of times.

I noticed that the error message...

[forteanajones]

Well, I re-checked the db permissions and it's all there. I can confirm that:

1. Drupal is running under the same user using the same MySQL instance as vb_test.php. Hence, MySQL and PHP...

[forteanajones]

Thanks, Steve. So are you really saying I should ignore this error message?

If that's the case, then I'm stumped. I've verified the database permissions several times and that error seems...

[forteanajones]

I'm evaluating a hosting environment where MySQL has to run under a user account and its directory is parallel to the public_html directory where vb_test.php is sitting. PHP is run as CGI.

[forteanajones]

I may be facing the same issue (they run but not automatically) and I'm curious to know how switching images out or adding code to templates might end up impacting scheduled tasks? I don't see the relationship,...

[forteanajones]

Thanks for the speedy reply!

I went through each of these steps, and still have the same issue under all styles, even the new one I just created....

I upgraded to 3.6.2 with only one problem: Going into Advanced Edit for a post yields a completely blank page. No errors whatsoever. I reverted all custom templates and disabled all products, to no...

Anyone?

I ended up having to go live without these missing posts, and am now trying to re-create them with the Adv. Editing Options for Mods and Admins hack from vb.org.

All is well except for two...
