Some changes
« Thread started on: Oct 23rd, 2005, 05:12am » |

There have been some changes to the board software today, so certain codes may no longer function. This is only a minor update - a few new features added/fixed.
Cell highlight of main page and boardindex page - optional.
More CSS settings available in Edit Forum Colors (in conjunction with above ).
Custom title as well as custom member groups.
Option to disable "position" ranks
Option to opt out of mass e-mails - done to prevent spam reports from ISP's such as AOL.
Option to disable password reminder - added security to accounts.
Separate stickies - make them stand out more for important messages. - optional
Separate categories on main page - optional
Enable calendar features and menu bar link - optional
Make guests login to see main page - optional.
E-mail field (in profile and board settings) increased to max 100 characters length to allow for longer e-mail addresses.
Board time can be set to a local time setting via board settings.
I did notice when the software updated that some board times may not have altered to the default setting. To change it, go into the admin, click on board settings, and set the time drop down box to (GMT -05.00) Eastern Time - Default. That will reset the board time back to what is was before the update.
Any queries, comments and in particular problems, then please start a new thread . (Not coding problems - Please post those on the coding board - Thanks.)

An update script was run today to ensure that all boards have the same data file structure. This is to allow me to program more updates in the future.
The script may have reset some of the board settings to a default value. If this has happened to your board, then II apologise as it shouldn't have happened. 
This script will not need to be run again.

The body background image was altered to make it compatible with all browsers. It is no longer added to the <body> tag, but in the main stylesheet.
Please note, if you use a background image on your message board, it is also now set to center on the page. To change it back so the image starts in the top left corner, add this to all headers:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body { background-position: top left; }
-->
</style>

In an attempt to prevent users from receiving spam emails, all user emails addresses are now hidden from guests.
This will not prevent members from seeing your email address. The only way to prevent that, is to hide your email address using the check box found on your profile page.

There is now an option to reset the board colors back to the default colors. This can be found in the "edit forum colors" section.

Youtube videos and some audio can now be posted within posts.

The audio tag only accepts these file extensions at present:
