MyBB

How can I hide the administrator IP on posts in 1.6

I've been having problems getting avatars to be linked to correctly on my forum.

As I try to save space on my forum, I generally disallow usage of the direct avatar upload and instead get by with requesting my users to upload the avatar to another location and provide a link to the avatar.

The only problem is that it can't seem to identify the link correctly. It keeps saying a link to my avatar at Gravitar is invalid when it is the correct link to get to the image in question.

Any ideas what might be causing this problem?

Hi,

This thread outlines a couple of errors people have had whilst upgrading from MyBB 1.4 to 1.6 and what to do to resolve them.

Unknown column 't.prefix'
Make sure you have run the upgrade script. This column was added in the upgrade so if it's missing, the upgrade script has not been run fully.

Unknown column 'remember' in 'field list'
Make sure you've uploaded all the new files properly, so they have overwritten the old files. This column was removed in the upgrade so if you're getting this error, your files are still looking for it. Also make sure you've not got any plugins running that are not 1.6 compatible.

Alternatively, if you have merged to MyBB from another forum software, redownload the MyBB Merge System, extract the loginconvert.php file, and upload it over the current version in your ./inc/plugins/ folder.

Fatal error: Call to undefined method DB_MySQLi::add_column()
Make sure you've uploaded all the new files properly, so they have overwritten the old files. This method was added to the database abstraction layers in the update, so if it can't be found, you still have the old files without it.

Thread Prefixes, Statistics and File Verification menu options missing from ACP
Make sure you have uploaded all the new files. If you have renamed your admin folder for security reasons, the files may have been uploaded to the 'admin' folder and not to your renamed folder. To fix this, either rename the admin folder in the package to the name of your custom admin folder and upload the files again, or upload the contents of the 'admin' folder in the package to inside your custom admin folder, so they overwrite the current admin files.

New features missing on the front end, or pages broken/messy
Your templates will need to be reverted to default to make sure they are running the 1.6 HTML. To do this go to ACP > Templates & Style > Templates > Find Updated Templates > for each template choose Options > Revert to Original. This will mean you will lose any template edits you have made, however you can save the edits and make them again after once the rest of the template has been updated.

Thanks for using MyBB 1.6

I converted my forum from phpBB3 to MyBB 1.6. Now I look statistics. I can see only two days (monday and tuesday). If try set start date some earlier day, I always see only these two days. Is this bug?

Hi,how i can upgrade my forum Mybb 1.5.0.2(Mybb 1.6 beta 2) to Mybb 1.6.0?

I'm currently converting a live board from MyBB 1.4.13 to 1.6. I deactivated plugins, set the board as offline, and uploaded the files - however, the installer is now stopping during the IP Repair Conversion.

When the screen shows:

Quote:Repairing ip 70000 to 75000 (434244 Total)

I thought I was going crazy, but today I upgraded to MyBB 1.6 and after reading a few threads and getting terribly confused, I seem to have found out that strangely I'm missing some features:

So far, I've found i'm missing:

File Verification
Statistics
Thread Prefixes

Any idea what's wrong?

try and Upgrade it to 1.6 or just delete it and Install 1.6?

I installed 1.4 with Softaculous through MyBBWebhost just 5 days ago and I notice Softaculous has yet to add 1.6 to their library.

Should I wait for them to add it to their library or should I try and Install it myself?

I don't want to continue building my forum in 1.4 if I can change over to 1.6.

Appreciate any advice,
Thanks

Well last evening I upgraded to 1.6. Today I am back on 1.4 to try it again this time uninstalling plugins before I install.

Well the thing that really bothered me was that I lost an entire forum of you tube videos.

They would not show other than a link.

When I upgrade again will this be an issue?

Thanks

I am getting the following error when trying to log into my forum after upgrading to 1.6. Any suggestions on how to fix?
