ELynah Forum

I've disabled new account creation.

Quote from: jtwcornell91 on October 01, 2025, 01:01:40 PMI think I just figured out that "Sus Member" is short for sustaining member, and not "sus" like the kids use it these days.  My initial misconception was fostered by the fact that Trotsky was the one I noticed it on first.

No, it's the other one. You'll probably figure it out eventually.

Quote from: LGR14 on September 30, 2025, 02:13:12 PMOne feature that would be helpful is for the topic to show by whom and when the last post was made, rather than merely who started the thread.

It does show last post author in the right hand column of the thread list.

Quote from: stereax on September 30, 2025, 01:29:30 PMYet another thought - could we put the old ELynah logo at the top, where it says ELynah Forum?

Yes, this template is just a placeholder until I can make one. Or modify this one or something, but I'm going to need some time for that.

Quote from: stereax on September 30, 2025, 12:14:43 PMAlso, old view is still apparently available on here.

How the hell did you find that? Don't worry, it's going away soon. That extra server is costing me $5 a day.

Quote from: ugarte on September 29, 2025, 06:34:24 PMis there a way to attach image files other than hotlinking a url?

Kind of a quirk of SMF, you can only attach files when doing a full reply (Reply button at the bottom), not a quick reply. I just added a mod that adds an "Add Files" button to the quick reply that effectively takes you to a full reply.

Is there a way to click on a topic that jumps directly to the first new post since the last time I read the topic rather than just being able to click on the most recent new post? That was a lovely feature of the old eLF that I'm hoping exists here and I just can't find it for some reason.

I believe if you click the "NEW" next to the subject it takes you to the first new one?

Thanks, should be corrected

Oh God. The moderation tools are so nice...

Quote from: Jeff Hopkins '82 on September 29, 2025, 02:31:22 PMJust an FYI, my username includes an apostrophe, which is apparently an illegal character.  Fortunately, I just deleted the apostrophe and it let me log in.

Oh yeah. Forgot to mention that, thanks. Obviously screen names are separate and can contain special characters.

Quote from: upprdeck on September 29, 2025, 01:06:57 PMwait until people realize it matches the new team colors we are rolling out.

Go Big Silver/grey

There are three little color circles at the bottom of the page. You can click the red one if you prefer. I couldn't select that by default. Temporary, at any rate.

So I had to do an emergency server upgrade on Friday night to, you know, an OS that wasn't, you know, 11 years old. Moving to a new version of PHP put the last nail in the coffin of Phorum, which hasn't been updated since Cornell played on Beebe Lake.

So it was time. SMF seems like a good, robust, free, and actively developed solution which included a migration script from Phorum... that really, really didn't work without a lot of massaging, but I got there. Everyone's accounts should be converted, along with your existing password. Posts and messages should all be here. Avatars, apparently did not make the trip.

This theme is a placeholder. There are likely a lot of broken things, but as I'm still putting out other fires with the server swap, I'll look into them when everything has settled. No need to tell me about what you find. Yet.

Sorry for the inconvenience. It certainly wasn't planned, but it's definitely the best thing to happen for this forum's future. I can implement some proper spam checks and stuff, for starters.

It's https now.

Quote from: French RageWhere is the "Big Red in the NHL" wall?  Is that new?

In the video room heading toward coach's office and the locker rooms in the new part of the rink.

You're not doing anything wrong. Probably another extended UTF-8 issue I'll have to debug in my Twitter extension, but I don't have time right now. Sorry.
