Hi there,

This is the latest and greatest build of UltimaBB. There are over 600 fixes between the version we were running and this version.

There are some functionality changes:

• U2U are now called Personal Messages (PM's). Don't worry, nothing has been lost
  
• You can now upload photos and avatars. I've set the size to be bigger as well (125x124, 15k)
  
• You can upload larger images (upto 800x600). Images now have better controls on them.
  
• Forum jump works properly
  

Thanks Andrew.

Appreciate your time and effort. None of this comes easy.

Bug #1 - attachments are missing. Am finding them right now (don't worry, none will be lost).

Not a bug but a mesage from a bug boy !!

Thanks mate for your time and effort.

schweet... I can see more pics/ads where there were once just little red crosses...

Error
Your last post was less than 60 seconds ago, and you are not allowed to post that frequently. If you double posted on accident, your first post has been posted, it's just your second post that was stopped

hey andrew..
thanks for your hard work..
#2 - only default Blue avail at the mo as the b/ground colour..
cheers paul

#3 - theres an arument warning across the top of the page as well ??? huh?? just letting you know?

The other themes will becoming back, just need to get images working again. The other messages are debug messages and I will be getting rid of those as soon as we have images again.

Andrew

Excellent stuff!!! Thanx for all the hard work and extra effort you and other people put into running this site...

great work again andrew.

in general chitchat this
Notice: Undefined variable: subforum in /var/www/avds/forums/viewforum.php(650) : eval()'d code on line 4
is showing up for me near the header.

also, images are currently down, at least in members rides.

They're down everywhere. The problem is that PHP is now inserting a newline between the headers and the start of the image. I can't seem to make it not do this. It's now nearly 3 am, and I can't see the screen any more. So I'm going to get a few hours sleep and see if I can nut it out tomorrow.

Sorry to leave you in the lurch like this folks, but it will work - I just have to find the ONE single call that is causing this issue and kill it.

1. Fix Images
2. Re-install themes
3. Undefined variable (see above)
4. forum -> forums .htaccess

Andrew

Thanks for your dedication Andrew

I've found bugs everywhere....in member's rides....for sale.....club runs....

I especially like the ovals.....

i cant see any of the attached pics i can see the ones that are hosted else where though

Gentlemen,
I only joined this forum two months ago today, so I am very much a neophyte here.
Many thanks to those of you who have welcomed me.
I had a few problems with the mechanics of things here, and Andrew has been very helpful in resolving them for me.
I can't imagine the amount of work keeping this forum going and fixing problems, but I'd like to state I for one appreciate Andrew's efforts.

Now we have some new software which has been installed and I believe I'm not fully up to speed enough at the site to fully appreciate what it offers.
The one thing I have noted at the forum where I spend the bulk of my time at Aussieveedubbers is the new "Sub-forums" under the Country Buggies
Forum header.
Upon opening the new forum format I realized the info I was accustomed to viewing wasn't on the same page but rather was linked to other locations.....specificially CB Parts - Wanted & 4 Sale, KO Register, History, and CB Tech Info.

I'm not sure this fragmenting of the CB info is advantageous to CB forum readers for ease of usage.
These sub-forum categories require more clicking around to search for info.
The main advantage for the previous display arrangement was all the CB info was linked from one page.....that included the info that has now been placed elsewhere in "sub-forums".
This arrangement made it very easy to see if someone had posted a new message to any CB category......it was all there on one page.
This was a similar arrangement to The Samba format which has "Sticky" and "Announcements" carried permanently at the top of the forum page, and frankly this makes the most sense to me. Since there is a limited volume of Country Buggy information as compared with other VW models, why fragment that info more?
Keeping all the info links on one page makes the most sense to me, and honestly makes the information much easier to view and access.

I see no advantage for users of the CB Forum with the inclusion of this new "Sub-forums" feature.
I feel it is a hindrance to the use of the CB forum.
I'd like to see these sub-forum categories returned to the main Country Buggy forum page.
Just my two cents worth.

Regards,
Steve

1. Fix Images - FIXED
2. Re-install themes - FIXED (about 20 themes now available)
3. Undefined variable (working on it now)
4. forum -> forums .htaccess

Maybe a minor detail, every time I shut the page I'm being logged out.

Thanks for the effort Andrew - hopefully someone can step up to be your technical helper soon. I'd offer but I have NFI on the technical side of things unfortunately (give me a spanner and I'm right, give me a keyboard and an error message and I'm screwed).

Also a minor (but annoying) issue that has re-appeared,

when I click on "Topic Activity" and scroll down to a topic and click on that, and then return to the "Topic Activity" page it returns to the TOP of the page and not where I was.

Used to do it once before and was fixed.

there seems to be no beers that i can find.. may have been taken by the same aliens that are also missing..

I've just noticed My avatar isn't working

Lee

What happened to all the emoticons? I was hoping we would get some more, instead some of the better ones disappeared?

Ash x

All of my old U2Us have gone
I had some phone numbers in there I needed - any chance of getting them back Andrew????

Please!?

I am now having to log in every time i visit the forum
Still, i like the new colour schemes!

Andrew,
What is all the info being displayed between the ad banner and the subject thread postings?
It reads as follows:
Notice: Undefined index: allowavatars in /var/www/avds/forums/viewtopic.php on line 826

Notice: Undefined index: stars in /var/www/avds/forums/viewtopic.php on line 846

Notice: Undefined index: title in /var/www/avds/forums/viewtopic.php on line 933

Also, over the the Country Buggies forum on pages there is a similar message displayed between the ad banner and the "sort by" banner.
It reads as follows:
Notice: Undefined variable: subforum in /var/www/avds/forums/viewforum.php(650) : eval()'d code on line 3

I have no clue what any of this means, I only know it is something that is distracting and something that certainly wasn't there before.
I would assume it relates to some technical issue or glitch.
Is it something you can take a look at?
Thanks.

Regards,
Steve

Incredibly slow/ impossible to open site , sometimes activates my Norton anti virus , no other site does , this so I figure it's Vdubbers.
