Re: What happened to the forum today???

Search works very well now, at least for the searches I have made. Kudos to the "transition team" for all the hard work. On another matter, is there a way to show the forum ID in the listing of posts when you click the "View Unanswered Posts" link? The resulting display shows the...

Re: What happened to the forum today???

A forked phpBB that is entirely dependent on Joomla! would follow the development of J!, and not of the concerns of the phpBB community. With phpBB2, maybe. phpBB3 is a lot better at integration with other products, so I very much doubt whether the advantages would outweigh the disadvantages. A pro...

Re: What happened to the forum today???

I've converted two tables to INNODB and tried with Josh's help to fix up the ONLY mod we had installed ;) Things are looking better now. :) phpbb3 is stable, and GREAT! /me just ignores rude people. Yeah, the rudeness is uncalled for. It looks like you guys are working through the problems, and you...

Re: What happened to the forum today???

Surprised by the migration from smf to phpbb3. Which forum is better technically, smf or phpbb3? I found phpbb3 slower on this site. someone here mentioned political reasons for the change. i just hope joomla, which is one of the top CMSs, is not a political body. There is an issue with how SMF lic...

Re: What happened to the forum today???

This is just spreading of bad rumours to phpBB. And not true. Your experience might be different, but its impolite to say I'm lying. I'm speaking from experience with phpBB since 2001, with one moderately busy forum that has over 200 regular users and 50,000 messages in the database. In that time, ...

Re: What happened to the forum today???

I'll vote against the change due to the security problems phpBB has always had (just make sure you religiously keep the updates current, and prepare to spend hours with each update if you've done any mods). And the forums are much, much slower, so you may have some issue (or phpBB3 does). But my per...
