SMF 2.0.x Support / Re: modifying RECENT posts

Just in case anyone else is going down this same rabbit hole I did eventually manage to work out the code changes, fairly trivial in the end.  See https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=570484.msg4037323#msg4037323

It is unlikely to be a core feature

SMF 2.0.x Support / Re: Post Group vs Membergroup Permissions

« Last post by Aleksi "Lex" Kilpinen on Yesterday at 11:33:49 AM »

Regular members and Post count groups can be used together, or separately.
If you give access to a board through regular members, you don't necessarily need to give the same access through post count groups at all.
If you don't give access to regular members, you can limit access to boards by post count - For example, have a board where everyone gets automatic access after they have made 100 posts.
The way to go depends on what you wish to achieve in the end.

Feature Requests / Re: Copy and Paste Images into Posts

« Last post by Dave En Velo on Yesterday at 11:32:33 AM »

I have just tried out vbgamer45's drag-drop-upload-demo and it contains the the kind of Copy/Paste functionality that I am looking for.  I Copied part of an image out of Photoshop Elements and Pasted it into a Posting with a few trivial clicks.  I was also able to reverse the process and select an image in the Posting, Copy it and Paste it into Word.

I assume this is a byproduct/feature of demo code to implement drag and drop of image files, certainly Drag and Drop of image files works fine.  I did try to Drag a selected image from Word and Drop it on the Posting but that just resulted in an empty outline in the Posting.  Frankly I was not expecting that to work as I am not sure what I expected.

I am currently a 2.0.17 user and I have been put off attempting to move to 2.1 because I didn't see the benefit to my users and the Release Candidate status was a concern.  However, if Copy/Paste of images is in the editor that's a real driver to upgrading, I will look out for this feature.

Thanks

Server Performance and Configuration / Random email problem

« Last post by madfitz on Yesterday at 11:10:40 AM »

I've just done a clean install of 2.0.17 and I'm configuring boards and testing stuff out.

I have email set on the php default.

I set registration with email activation and registered a test account but no email was received. There was nothing in spam and nothing in the error log.

I changed registration to Admin approval and tried again. User received an email to say the request has been created and is waiting for admin approval.

In the admin center I selected 'approve with email validation' but no further email was recieved, no spam, no error log.

Any ideas why some emails get through but activation/validation emails don't?

UPDATE:

Maybe I was expecting too much? Tried again from scratch and the activation email was received 50 minutes after registration. Is that normal?

if it's based off of curve you could try to add the attached mod in this post here: https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=535718.msg4019821#msg4019821
it should at least get you started into a bit more responsive theme

SMF 2.0.x Support / Re: SMF 2.0.x repair_settings download

Yeah I never associated it with the PHP version until somewhere along the way I got an error message the my version of MySQL was not compatible for what I was trying to do. Once I got PHP updated everything started working.

(Edit from above post: my SMF version was SMF 2.0.14 Not SMF 14)

SMF 2.0.x Support / Post Group vs Membergroup Permissions

« Last post by enaberif on Yesterday at 10:09:17 AM »

I was recently asked to help out with a community forum and in doing so I spent a lot of time in getting spam reduced to a point where its not really a problem. With that said one of the things I want to do is make the forum a bit more secure and making it so that after you have been activated properly you are limited to what you can see on the board.

Now this is where issues have started and I already found a few issues in how they setup post groups and member groups and looking for some guidance on what to do next.

So I restructured all the post groups so that they fall in a order of 0, 5, 200 etc and this is working well.

When I go into the post count group and say which boards can be visible this does not work and it appears to be associated with the "Regular Members" group. If I disable the "Regular Members" group on the board then the post group works properly in not being able to see the boards.

Since "Regular Members" contains all members that have no primary group set.. does this mean that I could technically pull that permission off all the boards and as long as people are in the post groups and or assigned a member group things will be ok?

It depends what you mean, however, if your question is to whether you should use it on a live site, the answer to that question can be found in the first post of this topic .
