but it is now fixed. Anchor tag URLs must start with the ftp, http, or https scheme in order to be converted to clickable links. 

 

as a trial, i made it so user-created anchor tags are embedded in square brackets, so that they can be distinguished from raw URLs. We'll see how it feels. Example:

http://www.google.com/ -- raw URL
http://www.goatse.cx/ -- anchor tag 

more mapping less cady garden bitches!!! 

While the Google trick is well-known to all of us, new members or guests seem to get confused by the apparent lack of an integrated search function here (which often results in misplaced posts/threads). Now, what about simply adding another link up there leading to a simple search form that forwards the request to Google with the site:celephais.net/board argument added? 

 

Scroogle is Google without the data mining or ads, it even is SSL encrypted and from my experience after more than a year very reliable:

https://ssl.scroogle.org/cgi-bin/nbbw.cgi?Gw=site:celephais.net/board

Without SSL: http://www.scroogle.org/cgi-bin/nbbw.cgi?Gw=site:celephais.net/board

What if divide news archive section into pages? I.e. to make 'all news' button and 'last 50(100) news' one. Since there's too much news today. 

There are many people here who can host the func_ site and/or database. Do you want to switch hosts? 

I'm finding the site inaccessible in my afternoons, which is probably o'dark thirty wherever the server is. Any particular problem? 

That is fixed now. It was a problem with long running SQL queries in the cube forum, which runs on the same machine. My bad. 

cheers :) 

Ah good, glad to hear the problem had a cause and a solution :) 

the cause was sheer and utter stupidity and the solution involved duct tape and spit, but it seems to be holding together. 

I would really love to see those queries so I won't be as stupid in the future. 

you don't ;-)

It was a combination of stupied queries and a missing index. 

When submitting news, aren't you supposed to get a message saying something among the lines of "Thanks for your submission" etc?

I just tried submitting some news, and in both IE8 and Firefox 3.5, it would just throw me to the main Forum menu after clicking the Submit button. 

i'm actually not sure what's supposed to happen, i forgot how i coded it. A confirmation message is probably a good idea though.

I ended up with 4 submissions from you :) 

have you changed something recently? the address bar used to have the post # of the first post visible in the bar, so you could change it to jump to whatever post # you wanted to. now, all it does is show:
http://www.celephais.net board/forum.php (replace space with /) no matter what you're looking at. 

Are you using Opera? If you have focus on the address bar (eg cursor in it), it will not change even if you click on links. 

and my cursor isn't on the address bar 

I haven't changed anything...

maybe its a misguided attempt to show you only the webpage's filename and not the querystring which they consider confusing and complicated? 

FF 3.5.2 here and I see the entire full URL, in the case of right now: http://www.celephais.net/board/view_thread.php?id=2&start=1336

But a bug I just noticed: If I take a full URL, like the one above and put it inside the quote tags, this is what happens:

http://www.celephais.net/board/view_thread.php?id=2&start=1336

Nor link doesn't work neither does it get fully displayed as a quoted text. 

good catch, i'll have to figure out how to fix that.
