MyBB

Will all template edits be reset to default after the upgrade from 1.4 to 1.6 ?
eg. If we've added a dropdown menu to our header template , will that remain or will it be removed/overwritten ?

There is mysql_db_inserts.php in the distribution package that hard codes
some texts (lines 70 - 72) info the database table mybb_profilefields. These hardcoded texts are visible for all users independently on the front end language used. You know them well: 'Location', 'Where in the world do you live?', 'Bio', 'Enter a few short details about yourself, your life story etc.' and 'Sex', 'Please select your sex from the list below.

Is there a possibility to change it to external language file in MyBB 1.6?

If so, thanks in an advance.

I get this error message when I try to run the file verification:

* There was a problem communicating with the MyBB server. Please try again in a few minutes.

Hello,

does anyone know how to install mods? And Im having trouble install the forum.

Recently, there have been a lot of people having problems logging in and/or logging out of their forums. This also includes having to login after every action in the ACP.

Almost every time, this is due to incorrect cookie settings. This is easy to fix, and here's how.

You can view your current cookie settings by viewing the source code from a page of your forum.

If your cookie settings are wrong, you probably won't be able to change them in the ACP as you may not be able to stay logged in. If this is the case, in order to change them, find a way to open and edit ./inc/settings.php (via FTP or a file manager) and edit the new values into the file. The settings you need to find/change in ./inc/settings.php are:

$settings['cookiedomain'] = ".example.com";
$settings['cookiepath'] = "/";
$settings['cookieprefix'] = "";

Then, you MUST go to 'ACP > Configuration > General Configuration' and make the change here too. This is because although editing the file will make you able to log in, the settings aren't updated in the database, and when you next save any settings in the ACP, the old settings will come back.

• If your URL is http://www.example.com, your settings should be:
  
  • Cookie Domain: .example.com
    
  • Cookie Path: /
    
  
  
• If your URL is http://www.example.com/myforum/, your settings should be:
  
  • Cookie Domain: .example.com
    
  • Cookie Path: /myforum/
    
  
  
• If your URL is http://subdomain.example.com, your settings should be:
  
  • Cookie Domain: subdomain.example.com OR .example.com
    
  • Cookie Path: /
    
  
  
• If your URL is http://subdomain.example.com/myforum/, your settings should be:
  
  • Cookie Domain: subdomain.example.com OR .example.com
    
  • Cookie Path: /myforum/
    

• IE 6/7/8 - Tools > Internet Options > Privacy (tab) > Change setting to 'Accept All Cookies' > Apply > OK.
  
• FF3 - Tools > Options > Privacy (tab) > Cookies > Accept cookies from sites > *tick* > Accept third party cookies *tick* > keep until > *they expire* > OK.

What Qualifies As General Support
Day to day we're seeing many threads posted 'how do i change the code to do this', 'how do i modify the template to do this'. We're also seeing people ask for support for code modifications and plugins which are not written by the MyBB Group.

This isn't the appropriate forum for such things.


The MyBB Group provides support in this forum for:

• General issues with MyBB
  
• General faults (which could possibly be bugs) with MyBB
  
• "How do I use feature x and feature y" discussions
  

• "I installed a plugin and now my board doesn't work"
  
• "This plugin is performing incorrectly"
  
• Questions relating to the modification of MyBB in terms of code, themes and templates.

• No support being given for such questions
  
• Your thread being deleted (extreme cases) and you being notified through the use of a PM
  
• Your thread being directly moved (with no redirect) to the appropriate forum
