Re: Module: Embed Images - 7 years ago
Is anyone using this module with php 7.0.x? When I upgrade my php from 5.6 to 7.0.x . it breaks the images so I had to downgrade to get it back. If you are running it with 7.0, will you share how you got it to work? Thank you Billby CBiLL - v5/v6 Modules/Add-Ons

Re: Module: Online Users - 8 years ago
QuoteScott Finegan The following is what I would try. If you can get to the admin, make the phorum unavailable Get a backup :) of everything. Turn the module off. Clear/Empty the cache. Verify it has been emptied, or do it manually using the Hosts "panel" Using phpmyadmin, or another admin tool, run maintenance on the table. Verify the "Online Users"by CBiLL - v5/v6 Modules/Add-Ons

Re: Some character causing posts to cut off on our forum after we switch to UTF8 - 11 years ago
I managed to fix it. I read in another post that lang file had a character set setting in it but my lang file was already at UTF-8 Then I remember I had a custom lang file in my module and saw it was set to the ISO so I changed it to UTF-8 and it working! (hopefully) Billby CBiLL - Phorum Support
Re: Some character causing posts to cut off on our forum after we switch to UTF8 - 11 years ago
Looking over my forums and the output source, one thing I notice that my forum is not generating this mega tag something like <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> But I see it generate here on Phorum.org Could that be my issue? How do I check to make it generate it ? Billby CBiLL - Phorum Support

QuoteScott Finegan How did you convert it, perhaps you missed a step? a google search on ' convert mysql to utf8 ' without the quotes gives many ways to do it. Depending on the size of your database, this may time out. When I did mine, I dumped, modified the create table statement in the dump file, and then reloaded to an empty database.

Re: Some character causing posts to cut off on our forum after we switch to UTF8 - 11 years ago
Here another example that your forum here on Phorum.org are accepting characters like ® but ours removes it and anything after the character get removed along with it after we make a post on our forum. on our forum after we post one two ® three four then only this will appear one two How do we troubleshoot to fix this?

Re: Some character causing posts to cut off on our forum after we switch to UTF8 - 11 years ago
You would would notice the symbol look like a dash between the one two and the three four somehow is cutting off the remaining post after you try to save it on our forum. Anything after the "—" get erased so if you post one two — three four then post it on our forum only one two will appear and the remaining get erased. Any idea why this is happening on our forum?

Re: All uploaded images broken after the upgrade - 12 years ago
Looks like there an issue with current images after the upgrade of PHP because if I start uploading images after the upgrade, the images are working fine But the images before the upgrades still does not work just the ones uploaded after the PHP upgrade.

If any of the Phorum developer would like access to my test server to troubleshoot this, send me a PM and I'll set you up an server admin account.
