Another update: Looks like for youtube tags you put the full url in now, not the stuff after the =

Is it possible to remove the char limit entirely for posts/vms? I doubt anyone would post spam of harmful length, and if they did we could just ban them, right?

Not only are the YouTube tags requiring full urls, all old YouTube tags are completely broken.

Any way to fix?

Code:
<?php
function contains($substring, $string) {
  $pos = strpos($string, $substring);
  return $pos !== false;
}
if (!contains($post_message, "[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v="))
  $post_message = str_replace("[youtube]", "[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=", $post_message);
?>

Turned out that the media bbcode had youtube as an alias. Naturally there was a conflict. This is now fixed.
I also changed any full url entries back to their shortcode original by doing a quick run through the database.

Apparently "hide" means "soft delete" according to IPB. I've fixed the permissions as well as the lingo where it
counts. Well... at least I think I have. I don't have a standard member account to test with.

VM (Profile comments) limits fixed (4000 chars, same as before the update).

Why can't I delete my own posts???

You can delete posts by hovering over edit and you will see delete next to it. I'm not sure if this existed when you posted.

No, when I posted it wasn't here.

The favicon seems broken. When it is in the Firefox address bar and tabs it displays normally. But in the back menus, it displays as a white "v" in a blue box.(IPboard logo?)

When I go to view the profile of a banned member, I get this:

This wasn't on purpose, was it?

I still get the same error message. At least the spoilers are fixed now.

This might just be me, but I'm pretty sure that the spoilers were never broken. The little box was (I believe) a stylistic choice, as I've seen it on several other boards and nobody made a fuss about it there. IMO, it looks kinda weirder without the box. Meh.

I dunno. I didn't like the little box very much.

Back on topic to the glitch still present, please? I still can't view Perma-banned members' profiles.

What is with your obsession with the banned? This isn't a high priority fix, but I guess it does need to be fixed.

Because we all need to read the history of windsofwinds over and over again.


(Seriously, we do)

I think switching to IPBoard was a good idea, as long as we still had all of our current stature. (Somewhere it stated we would)

Past tense makes everything better.
