YEAH! Undoing the mess I was making. (Pagenation can wait in my opinion because of all the filtering options). Thank you!!!! Greg

I didn't make any custom code changes. Just excluded the mceEditor from the module list. When excluded the content area is called msgContent. When I put the mceEditor module back in the content area is called Content. So the content.php forums module need to change or one or the other parts that generate the new post form needs to be changed. Greg

Okay I might have found it. My version does not have the special editor installed. The Content area html is:   <textarea name='msgContent' rows='10'>   The stock version 1.15 Content area html is:   <textarea rows='10' class='mceEditor' name='content' id='content'>   And the content.php is looking for 'content' as the area. So it might be a defect if you do not have the mceEditor activated. Greg

orsino. With the location one, you can add a condition code that removes a stat like AP's (which could be time) or you can add time to the stats and lower it. I think there is a sample in there with !Currency. Greg

I am sure I caused this. SOMEHOW. The only thing I have changed about the forum is to add auto_post_content.php to give a list of forum names and links to my home page. Somehow I try to add a thread and the screen just redisplays empty (with the title still intact but the text message empty). No errors or anything and obviously no record written (typically it says on top 'thread added' or something). Where do you suggest I track this down? FAQ's for example work just fine and others entry areas. Greg

I just hadn't looked at it until 2 hours ago. Soooooo. Was just wondering. I've used Ajax in .NET and jQuery. But these seems just as easy. So for a button to change a setting. No problem since I will only let you change your own setting. Just wondering if SOMEDAY I do a little game in it. Like Space Invaders. I would just keep state at the server level, so any Ajax coming in would be evaluated against that server state. Actually I should just stop this dreaming, too much core work to do lol Greg

I don't care for basic things I would use Ajax for like preferences and such. I am just concern, for example, if I used it for map movement or something. But Alain I am sure knows what he was thinking. Probably nicely sitting in the documentation. Greg

My mind is buzzing with possibilities after looking at those demos. Questions, are the Ajax calls protected by the tokens also? I saw nothing in the url that would suggest they were protected as a normal page url would be. Comments? Greg

Thank you sir!

Which Ajax demo (having not looked at anything Ajax in here) would you recommend for me to use as a basis for toggle buttons to change options on a template header? Example: Red Button/Blue Button/Green Button for default theme to save into a player preference field. Thank you, Greg

It seems to work perfect for me. Do you have the module enabled/installed? Recheck the setting and resave. I have it set to 30 minutes and I've tested to 29min and 32-ish minutes. Greg

Even 10-15 fields gets large. Also, doesn't help I have fixed width templates I wrote 8 years ago that I am using (not a fan of expanding web templates for the most part). Waiting until I need to convert everything to the Responsive templates I just bought. (head spinning). I just determined last night (putting my project management hat on) that I need to write 180 custom modules (some overlap and some changes from existing modules) and rework 12 existing core ones. Time to get buried in fun work. Thank you listening to my posts! Greg

Oh and I put stuff like this onto the forums more as a reminder for me (or us as a community) as well as hoping that someone may have done it already. My hope is that things I put here (these style suggestions) are more core system oriented that everyone will or does need. I NEVER am expecting this to get done. Just crossing fingers. Greg

(Can you tell I am neck deep in the code? :confused: ) I was wondering. In the table edit program (besides my previous suggestion of data lookup in another thread) if we could consider an addition, to the config.xml, a list of the table fields that we wished to see in the edit list. Later, once the row is selected, we could see it all in a top to bottom list as it is now. The reason is that some of the tables may have more than 4-5 fields and thus be unmanageable in a display row. I recommend adding a 'list' element to drive the table edit grid. Example (list element):   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="-DO NOT UPDATE-"> <module version="1.0.1" name="FAQ" author="Alain Bertrand" description="Offers a F.A.Q. system with questions and answers."/> <table name="faq_categories" /> <table name="faq"> <lookup key="id" column="category_id" table="faq_categories" display="name" /> <list fields="id, category_id, question" /> </table> </configuration>   I might have to do this as my new tables are fairly rotund. (oh and I didn't say sortable column headers lol) Greg

I just wrote a routine that made a 10,000+ map locations with path connectors as a board. So I have already encountered it. But that is my problem at the moment. It's mildly important to me since then I don't have to do it lol, but there is probably other just as important things for everyone else. This was not a request, just a comment. Greg

I think it was more of a thought provoking comment. Maybe there is a nice little tool we can integrate in there for data listings. Or maybe Alain has Saturday to kill lol Greg

While I was working on an admin program I noticed one thing about the tools in general. Some of the programs seem pretty easy to use on a small site but could become monsters on the possible, inevitable large site. For example, thousands of config variables or users for example. We may want to consider a general filter class that we could put at the top of screens to search on fields or limit results in other ways. I don't have a solution yet but I just thought, what happens if I get 2,000 players. How am I going to be looking them up. And I suspect I will be happily to busy to fix it then. It could be as simple as: [Text Entry] [Drop Down of all Fields in the table V] using 'LIKE' you could get all players with a user name of 'gmoo' or something like the conditionals for location path where you might say 'Players in Clan XX'. This could be in the table edit or any of the potential long list of data screens. This is just a thought, not a request. For the future we all want :cool: Greg

Oooo it logs me off when I change: index.php?p=view_player&id=2&token=53ac814a1ea4fe585ec61c69ac0a4b84 to: index.php?p=view_player&id=1&token=53ac814a1ea4fe585ec61c69ac0a4b84 Didn't know it did that, awesome ;) Greg

Sure it has to work with NWE.

Or just put what you are doing here. We are very helpful and will not embarrass you. I embarrass myself enough for everyone. Greg

Here is a forum url example: index.php?p=forums&s=2&token=4ff90d9e4f301efc72b598f46b6f9bf6 Have you considered changing to something not so easy to mess with? And I mean, when you use numbers in a URL, like 1, 2 or 3 ... sometimes people can determine some information about your system. Like if you are player 43, they could assume there is a 1 to 42 and try to access them. index.php?p=forums&s=2&token=4ff90d9e4f301efc72b598f46b6f9bf6 could be index.php?p=98h12u12eig1p9d1yg&s=oinobu91d91i2h21ie&token=4ff90d9e4f301efc72b598f46b6f9bf6 And this is just a thought. Would like peoples opinion. Thanx, Greg

You are missing an ending ) on your line before the ; $_POST['bet']=strip_tags(isset($_POST['bet'])); Greg

I thought more as an example, which is what the modules are anyway. But it was just a thought. Greg

Sure it is. NWE is perfect ... its us developers who are less than perfect :p

And I just checked, its gone, you must have updated something on the module list. Greg
