It's stickied so users have a place to continue reporting current and future issues. Not everyone can see the Forum Maintenance board.
Thanks to the guys that were fixing and updating everything.Blocks?
I was just wondering about the forum ranks - are the blocks we see now here to stay?
Doesn't seem to be a forum thing seems to be a Computer thing to me... You should have a Bar to scroll after you run out or page... Just keep typing it wont end for awhile.

It's a board setting that likely got changed by mistake, or by a change in the skin.

Moderator rank star images are screwed up.The forum cache needs to be cleared.
So far, I can see the (http://arpd.argonathrpg.com/forum/Themes/ARPD4/images/star3.gif) images just fine.
Well, this is what it looks like for me..LMAO. That should be SWAT's rank star, not Moderator!

I had the same on main Argo forum, when I tried to use polish letters (ą, ń, ś, ć, ł, ź, ż, ó etc). Maybe that's the problem, use only english letters and signs? :)
in what Lang. you use this?

Polish, grammatically one of the most difficult languages in the world... :P
Language packs can be installed to get over this.That still doesn't fix some of the SMF limitations in many cases, due to coding conflicts.

As long as it doesn't cause a coding conflict, any pack officially released should be stable.That still doesn't fix some of the SMF limitations in many cases, due to coding conflicts.

Hopefully the language packs for Polish are stable?

Could you fix the header? It's kinda driving me crazy :lol:

Uh which and what's with it.
Also, ARPD Forums will be snowing for 2-3 days. :gandalf:
Great job Paul! Looking forward to more awesome stuff from you. ;)
And happy new year!
I'll be removing the Awards field for now, as i will be testing some features with it. It seems that there is a database error which will be fixed once Gandalf is available. Then I'll implement the new awards system which is basically a lot more useful..The database issue is the same reason why boards are limited, and why setting all ranks to view a board, (which shouldn't be done with our system anyway), triggers the database error, as well.
The reason the database has a error on some specific areas of the forum is because the database (php) files are outdated to 2.0 instead of 2.0.1. However, the new SMF version (2.0.2) is a important update with some security measures which are mandatory to the forum. Hopefully everything will be set up to be fixed at some point.That shouldn't be possible if the forum upgrades the database upon updates. It also shouldn't of happened in SMF 2.0 itself then either. It sounds like someone might've made a mistake when they migrated the forum from SMF 1.x to SMF 2.x...*rolls eyes and giggles*
Yeah, but in the database error when attempting to create-boards, it indicates that it needs the latest version at some point of a reason which is odd, but it will do the job when manually updating it.This is just a theory, but any chance ARPD forums has any mods installed that use the version emulation system? I'm thinking one may have been partially uninstalled, but not completely, and messed things up a bit while the setting was still on. I know the uninstallation of mods was an issue awhile back because a few times people forgot to uninstall all of them before an update. :P
Yeah, but in the database error when attempting to create-boards, it indicates that it needs the latest version at some point of a reason which is odd, but it will do the job when manually updating it.As you are probably not yet completely known with the system, on any database error aan update is suggested, yet in minor updates SMF does not always adapt the database field. The 2.01 and 2.02 are minor updates in PHP that have not changed anything in the database, and it seems SMF has not found it worth to update de version number.
Ah ha! So my suspection of a mod being at fault was correct! Glad to hear you know the cause Gandy. :cop:Yeah, but in the database error when attempting to create-boards, it indicates that it needs the latest version at some point of a reason which is odd, but it will do the job when manually updating it.As you are probably not yet completely known with the system, on any database error aan update is suggested, yet in minor updates SMF does not always adapt the database field.

The database error refers to a mod (twitter) that has previously been installed but has been removed without fully removing the database fields. The field needs to be scrapped from the database, which means I need bit of time as I prefer to make a full backup before such actions.
Note regarding the awards: this is a very old mod that I have ported myself to SMF 2.0
If you need to reinstall, do not use the standard version unless it has by now been re-released for 2.0.2
Also please NEVER install any mod that gives an installation error as MrTrane has more than once broken the forum by doing so
Anyone who carefully reads the error message might understand what the fault is.
Ah ha! So my suspection of a mod being at fault was correct! Glad to hear you know the cause Gandy. :cop:
Unfortunately I only witnessed the error when setting visibility through ranks, so I was just given the generic "database error" message. I'm not able to set boards, so further detailed errors aren't available to me. I'm glad you caught it so quickly though. It will be nice to not have to give up boards anymore :lol:Anyone who carefully reads the error message might understand what the fault is.

Please bring back the old organization of the boards !!Thinking the same. For me it looks like a huge mess.
Please bring back the old organization of the boards !!
Please bring back the old organization of the boards !!+1 This looks really ugly, and it makes me dizzy :S

I am just plain lost...
And also please bring back views for topics.
I'm...umm...confused...Indeed,what happened?
Edit: Someone broke the Users Online Today mod.
I can't access the logs to see, but my best guess for the broken mod is that someone updated the forums to SMF 2.0.2, but forgot to uninstall all mods first *rolls eyes*I'm...umm...confused...Indeed,what happened?
Edit: Someone broke the Users Online Today mod.
Does it matter? :trust:Yes, it actually ****ing does. I'm sick of bias towards a single server. We're one gawd damn community, not one server.
Anyways, the order doesn't matter, I think the general stuff went up...That wasn't all that was changed in the orderings.
SugarD, this clearly has nothing to do about favoritism to one server, almost EVERY bored has moved around to strange orderings, it could possibly just be a bug, or an issue with a plugin as you identified.I'm not just referring to this single incident. This has been a long-time issue across the community.
EG as you will see, HQ, is above MTA:VC, there is no logic in that.
The SAPD public board is bellow all others. Report to leaders is in the middle, etc.
I'm sure it is just a bug and maybe also has something to do with the old Board creation error.
No one asks what the SA:MP server's IP is anymore. It's always, 'What's the server's IP?'This has been evident in board orders even long before this mess. Popularity should not be a factor in the ordering of a board. In fact, it's not. If it were, as was told to me several times by previous admins that it was, IV:MP would be second in the order, and it's dead last.

"The server" implies they were already discussing a SA:MP-related subject when asked. I get MSN messages daily of ex-MTA:VC and VC:MP users who straight up ask what "the server's IP is". That makes no sense at all. The community KNOWS we have multiple servers. They recognize it. Out of bad habit they have assumed that SA:MP is the only one anyone cares about. It's popularity allows for some leeway in that regard, but this shouldn't be so bad that it happens multiple times a day. That is just one example of it too. Popularity does not rule this community, the Server Owners and the Vision do.SugarD, this clearly has nothing to do about favoritism to one server, almost EVERY bored has moved around to strange orderings, it could possibly just be a bug, or an issue with a plugin as you identified.I'm not just referring to this single incident.

SugarD there is no favouritism towards SA:MP, our boards are as messed up as yours.
And about the quote you took, it makes perfect sense, which server of Argonath is most populated one ?
SA:MP, so some people take SA:MP as the so called "the server".
As for the forum itself, has anyone else noticed any new issues? I've gotten reports that LU's LCPD Chief and LCPD Captain are unable to see most of their LU boards. Anyone else receiving abnormal board visibility problems?
AM/PM indexes are still broken, as well. Ugh...As for the forum itself, has anyone else noticed any new issues? I've gotten reports that LU's LCPD Chief and LCPD Captain are unable to see most of their LU boards. Anyone else receiving abnormal board visibility problems?
Thread view counts have disappeared, and on the index, the Users Online Today mod is broken.
SAPD only lost 1 board.
Agreed. This forum is a mess. I wish we could just archive the database and start all over fresh, redesigning this thing correctly. There are so many issues constantly popping up every few months that it makes my head want to explode.SAPD only lost 1 board.
"Only."
There shouldn't be boards missing to begin with.
Please bring back the old organization of the boards !!Agreed, now I have to look where everything is where in first place I just knew where it was.. :(
And now what about setting up some rules on signatures? I see some having the size is my computers wallpaper (not really but just to tell how big they are)... Sometimes half of my screen is covered with the signature of one person.That would be a good idea. Your's is a bit oversized too :P
If Correct, You can set Max size in the Ownerpannel Of the Forum. :gandalf:Admin Control Panel*, but yes, you are correct. That only allows you to set image max sizes and max text lengths, (which includes code text too).

As well it depends how big is your screen by the way, on my laptop which screen's 15"4 inches, I see every signature in normal size. And on my home 22 inches monitor its even smaller.
I didn't ment it like that, I have a resolution of 1280×900 or something like that but still some signatures are like wallpapers with sizes of 600×500 pixels or something. I agree mine is a bit oversized as well and bigger then my regular size of 500×150 (now mine is 500×200). I think I'm wrongly understood, and as what you guys are telling, I don't think it's an idea to let your members buy new computer-screens because members have such big sized signatures (which also take longer to load).
In example this one from Tomer;The image can easily be resized smaller without becoming unreadable. If it's that big of a deal that it can't be read when resized, it would be the responsibility of the user to fix it. The rules wouldn't change just for someone being too lazy to fix this on their own. Anyone who wishes to argue this can easily see my example in my quote of Nicky ;)
(http://i41.tinypic.com/71sqp1.png)
it even needs to be scrolled at me and I have no matter on viewing any website or image but only here that's a problem, and resizing the website wouldn't work because else I can't read the text.
I may be wrong, but I am receiving some errors with the forum, such as loading and so on. Anyone else getting this?

Not to worry guys. The website servers are just lagging right now. It will likely be fixed soon. The graphical corruption is caused by the web browsers becoming confused when loading the lagging sites, unsure of how to correctly display the code which is becoming corrupted on transmission.

Took me around 3 days to sort it out with a new feature.Feel your pain there. When me and Trane went through and got rid of the original ones, there were over 4,000 of the lil ****ers sneaking around in the member's list :P
Paul. They have returned. Check Gen Dis.
Did someone set the forum to auto-approve without user email self-authentication? That might be why they are getting through so easily.
There is an easier way to stop them than installing mods, just simply add questions on the registration page, like the ones I had added few months ago (What SAPD stands for? - What SWAT stands for? etc) and not a single bot registered since then. But recently I noticed that someone removed the registration questions and since then the forum got filled with Viagra.

It's still there :D
Even the questions in the Anti Spam section are still there.
However - i did notice the verification questions we're disabled and it should be okay now.
Some bots are able to, or get human assistance with it. That's why I installed so many anti-spam mods on ARFD forums.
Two I would still highly recommend, if you have FTP access to install the second one, are StopSpammer and Mod httpBL, both as SMF mods. I've been using them for a few years now with great success.
StopSpammer checks them against a database of known spammer IP's, usernames, and email addresses. If set up correctly, it will flag any users that register with matches so they must be approved or deleted by an Administrator.
Mod httpBL works in a similar way by checking yet another database of known spammer IP's, but instead of flagging them, it redirects them to a "captcha" style page (http://arfd.argonathrpg.com/forum/warning.php) in which they must answer a couple very simple math questions to get past it. Those that are obviously bots and cannot trick the page don't get past it, and thus never make it to the registration page to begin with.
On ARFD forums, my total stats between the two mods are as follows:
StopSpammer: "19888 Spammers blocked up until today"
Mod httpBL: "Spammers stopped by MOD httpBL: 13318"
However, Gandalf has said in the past that he prefers the Bad Behavior Mod over Mod httpBL, and both use the same database for queries. He never really gave me an opinion on the StopSpammer mod either way, so I'm unsure of his opinions there. Best bet would be to get in contact with him when he returns again, and see what he's willing to allow or do regarding the bots.

How about blocking some of their idiotic names that do not make sense? Would that be possible, if not then I guess add more questions possibly? Higher level thinking skills shall be applied.

Secondly, there is no way to block their names without guessing the trillions of possibilities, including specific keywords that bots tend to skew and change to avoid such blocks.
As for adding more questions, that only puts an inconvenience on normal users trying to register. If they can get past the initial questions, adding more won't stop them.
The same goes for users too. Keep in mind that many of these bots have human assistance, as well.

Paul, I hope you've had some progress on the whole boards problem!Gandalf figured out what the issue was and said he would personally fix it when he had some time. Unfortunately he has been pretty busy lately.
I do not know really..It sounds like something relating to custom icons on the forum boards, such as the custom ones Argo Forums uses to replace the "New Replies", "No Replies", etc. icons.
Gandalf PMed me around some days ago and said to Read the message: you have not selected a board ICON.
Select one and there will be no error.
I have no clue what this is nor have even experienced this kind of issue. I have asked various people about this and they have no clue on what it even relates to and have even researched it many times to find this issue. The only possible idea on how to fix this is via the Database.

- New forum stars implemented
I'm not fan of the new stars.
Blue taken by FBI/Division ranks.
The only negative point I see with that is we cannot see anymore if the icon is grey or yellow..Like this? (http://i.imgur.com/m5HUo.gif)
Well the previous Cadet-Sergeant stars were gray, so it's a conversion of them.Blue taken by FBI/Division ranks.
Other kind of blue?
Like this
Or this
Maybe like this
This is also one
even this
As long as it ain't Gray :) Or Pink.

It's now better
Everything is cool?The rest of the users were reset to the "default" theme. Your personal settings override it for you. Try resetting everyone's to the ARPD one from the theme settings and it should fix it for everyone.
I see the normal ARPD theme
Yeah fixed.What were ya working on, if I may ask? :cop:
Forums was down for a bit due to me working on the Subs.php file.
Should be good now.
Old script lines which were causing some packages some errors.Nice work!
This is due to the past installations/uninstallations of the packages.
Although i may need to reinstall some packages, but it's okay.
Packages older than 6 months months are okay.Alrighty. Wasn't sure what you were doing, so I figured it'd be a valuable thing to remember. A past admin didn't catch that one awhile back and he didn't have FTP access to reverse the changes, so the forum was accidentally messed up for a day or so until Gandalf showed up. I'd hate to see it happen again :lol:
So the SMFads wont be reinstalled.
Why are youtube videos no longer appearing as the video and just a link?He probably didn't reinstall the mod for it.

IRC would be spammed to all hell, worse then the public chat main game, but the idea of rooms would be pretty good as it would help groups organise and so on more easily, without needing to go on MSN or come in game.The idea isn't just one channel. It's an entire network, meaning as many channels as the server can possibly support could be made.

Interesting, let's hope we don't die from it! D:
It better be a cute theme! :D
It will take longer than expected.Alright, many thanks.
There are minor bugs which require time to work out.
Thanks.
This is great, good job Paul!+1
What's up with the blank line completly unreadable ? : http://arpd.argonathrpg.com/forum/index.php?board=107.0
Old theme was better.
There are no "Hide enclosed from Suspicious Visitors" / "Moderator Comment" / "Global Moderator Comment" / "Administrator Comment" icons uploaded to this theme folder so when we press "Reply" and see the icons there is a plain text instead of the icon...The theme is slow too. :(
Also, don't know how about now but yesterday there were troubles with sending PMs. Don't know if it's working now.
Also, can you PLEASE allow users to change themes in their profile settings? I hate the new one and it makes me annoyed like hell when I have to navigate through it.... :/
Noany search bar?The search bar is usually theme-based or a modification. You can still click "Search" in the top menu. ;)
but you got the wrong FD logo in the corner! D:
However its still slow :(
The reasons why the forum is running a little bit slow is due to the following;
- Hosted advertisements by Azellus Gaming (tested)
- Database consists a large file of appropriately 409600 KB (400 MB) from last check
- ARPD domains are operating under a different hosting machine
This is how it will be thenWorks for me :cop:

It would be great if we would have an Youtube plugin which allows a youtube link to become a video on the topic, which means you do not have to click on the link which transfers you to Youtube, but watch the video directly on the topic. (as on the Argonath forums)..

- Forum restored fully after the crash yesterday of the PHP update (users had troubles accessing the forums whereas they would only redirect to a download link which was the index.php)
- YouTube BBcode added to the forum - Use [youtube] tags to show the video in the forums instead of a redirecting link

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNd95AOPsC4[/youtube]Try just the video URL code. Some YouTube BBCode mods will only support that part of the URL being used.
Scratch that. It's not even processing the tags at all for some reason.
Did Paul make those, or get a package?Likely a package. The bugs probably aren't his fault as there were issues with the recent PHP updates.

Paul is away right now, and he is the only one with the rank capable of doing such besides the Server Owners or Community Leaders who have Administrator ranks here.Did Paul make those, or get a package?Likely a package.

Reinstall the package then. Although I have browsed the SMF Forum packages and did not find one like this.
Found a small problem Paul.. The forum is missing some smileys. :(
Forum upgraded to SMF 2.0.3. I notice speed, anyone else can? (even though it's an security update) :razz:

Not sure if this is a bug, nor if it was noticed before, but in the Team page, registration dates are displayed in Spanish. :pYou sure about that? :SQuote• Date Registered: 09 de October del 2009
Portal added, I guess the changes are visible.Good work, Trane. It looks really nice.
How do I turn off the snow? Is there a way?Yes, block http://arpd.argonathrpg.com/forum/Themes/default/scripts/snowstorm.js on AdBlocker or any simiral browser addon.
I also noticed a few spelling/grammar errors at the homepage, you should ask Sushi or Jason Bridges to correct it if they have time. No offence of course, I really like the new lay-out.

Our forums will be integrated with bootstrap soon. It's hard work, but eventually we will get the job done. This is very rare and has been seen unsuccessful in many attempts by SMF users.Good luck with bootstrap, hopefully you wont need luck.
At-least I'll have something at-last challenging for me to do. :neutral:
Just been cleaning up many of the public stickys and information topics, particularly the outdated ones.
It's a long task and often it comes down to each department to update their content.
If there is anything that you feel should or shouldn't be in Police Procedures and State Laws or News & Announcements please leave a post in this topic about it.

That one doesn't really belong there :grin:
I am missing Supervisory Officer forum rights or something. When I click "join us" I am missing all the additional application requests such as SWAT, SGT, Air division, ASID, etc....
This should't be too hars to fix since SMF does have a very simple to configurate, but advanced permissions system.I am missing Supervisory Officer forum rights or something. When I click "join us" I am missing all the additional application requests such as SWAT, SGT, Air division, ASID, etc....
No you aren't missing rights, your rights aren't set up properly, thanks to ARPD Forum Administration, the form view permissions are screwed up. Chiefs from other PDs (non SA:MP SAPD) can see applications for Air Division, etc even if they aren't part of SA:MP SAPD is a good example of how messed up the permissions are.

No it shouldn't be. Your point exactly. If someone can take the time to actually fix them, then these sorts of issues wouldn't happen.
everything rests on the shoulders of the webmasters.Who are pretty much inactive or either not willing to do anything.

Its funny how there is always these command members that moan and say how their requests are not dealt with, yet at the end they never really filed a proper request. They simply waited for someone to read their mind and when nobody did, they go around moaning. Don't forget at the end of the day you represent command staff and acting like this, makes everyone look bad.
