Faster Parsecode

[remus]

I'm getting the same error message. Fresh download from the mod site. WinRAR says the file is corrupt. Me thinks the file truely is corrupt.

SMF gives the following error:

The package you tried to upload either is not a valid package or has become corrupted.

There is no problem at all if you use wirar v3.50 or v3.51 - i just have tested all archives and there was no error.

Actually I think it's a firefox thing. If I download with IE it's fine - for the most part - still get errors on install though.
But when I download it with Firefox it says the file is corrupt.

Is it possible that this Mod is breaking the parsing of CAPITALIZED closing quote tags?

For example, I've imported a vB forum, where much of the BB Code is capitalized, among them the quote tag. I've notice that in any of the old, imported posts where there is a quote, the quote extends to the end of the post, even though there is a closing /QUOTE tag. When I change that closing tag to /quote, the post parses as it should.

EDIT: It's definitely this MOD. I tested before/after scenarios on a clean SMF 1.0.5 install.

Hmm... I thought I had already fixed the issue with caps long ago. Thanks for noticing this, I'll take a look at it and provide an update hopefully soon.

hello, wouldn't it be much easier to work with utf-8... what we have to do, to do so

[Anguz]

What do you mean?

[TimeJunky]

sorry, I slided into your thread... this question belongs to a lang-mod...

Just to be clear. I should NOT install this on 1.1RC1 right?

[Anguz]

Yup, don't. It won't anyway.

[Prasad007]

not working!
says package is corrupt!

[Anguz]

Try downloading it with another program, it may be a problem in your download.

[Prasad007]

i tried doing it thru the package manager
then tried downloading it from this site
either way, it said the package was corrupt
and i had no other mods installed for any clash or something
it was a fresh 1.1 rc1 install

[Anguz]

Ah, that's why, then. This mod is not for 1.1.

[Prasad007]

Ah, that's why, then. This mod is not for 1.1.

oh okay
wont an update be released then?

Ok I am a dumb person. How does this stuff work. I get an zipped file to my desktop then what? Do I need all the previous versions of faster parsecode? Do I unzip then upload to the package manager?

[Anguz]

Just the version of the mod that's for your version of SMF. Upload to Package Manager and install.

Every time some software was "open source" the same problem occur :

Most recent version does not include hack or mod that could comply with it ...
It's such a shame ... but nothing could help it so , better keep on searching solution and not spend too much time complaining about.
( I experienced the same with the new version of joomla and a hack that depend on the version... and now woth SMF 1.1RC2 and faster parsecode ... )

Should it be a way to have an "all version compatible" Faster parsecode or directly include it into the sources of SMF as an optional component ( by optional i mean that if you doesn't need it you could disable it. )

more and more people are using faster parsecode. so why not add it like an improvement to the source and not only a simple mod ?

1.1 has a totally different bbc parser to 1.0x.

[Prasad007]

do i need this mod for my forum running smf version 1.1 rc2 ?
