You can download it on Github. - Fixed a fatal `TypeError` in `include/api/custom_profile_fields.php` when creating a new custom profile field. The internal `num_fields` counter was being picked up as a candidate field id during id lookup, which could cause PHP 8 string/int comparison rules to corrupt the counter and crash with "Unsupported operand types: string + int". - Fixed `aby Brian Moon - Announcements

Phorum 10.0.0-alpha-3 available - 6 weeks ago
Phorum has been fully rewritten from the ground up — and yet, if you're running Phorum 6 today, you can upgrade in place. The database schema is unchanged and fully compatible. Same tables, same columns, same data. What's changed is everything around it. (If you're still on Phorum 5.x, you'll need to upgrade to Phorum 6 first before moving to Phorum 10.)

The version number reflects that break, not a count of ten sequential releases.* Phorum has been fully rewritten from the ground up — and yet, if you're running **Phorum 6** today, you can upgradby Brian Moon - Announcements

Re: Phorum 5.3 Proposition - $300 donation - 14 years ago
Sorting alphabetically or any other way would not be slow assuming the work went into the queries to add the correct keys and the queries were adjusted to ensure proper key usage. It would increase index size for everything you want to sort by. And that will in turn slow down insert (post) time by some marginal amount. That may or may not be an issue. Posting is already the slowest process we havby Brian Moon - Phorum Development
Re: Phorum Development has moved to Github - 14 years ago
CBill, you would have to clone the branch you want. I can't remember if you are using 5.3 or 5.2. For 5.2, you would: git clone -b phorum_5_2 git@github.com:Phorum/Core.git your_directory_name Then you would issue git pull after that to keep it updated.by Brian Moon - Announcements

Re: How hard would it be? - 15 years ago
You could easily use different tables, but in the same database. Although, it really just sounds like you need a vroot and some creative module work that acts on the HTTP host that is used.by Brian Moon - Phorum Support
Re: Integration of Addthis for social media - 15 years ago
I have researched ShareThis for use on other sites. In reality, people really only use Facebook and Twitter. Google would have you believe that G+ matters. That is yet to be seen. Both Facebook and Twitter have buttons you could use to get people directly to the tools they want to use. In any case, this should be a simple addition to the read.tpl template file. FWIW, Facebook has a bug that doby Brian Moon - Phorum Support

Re: Problem installing - PHP version - 15 years ago
Your guess is as good as mine and I wrote the code. We did install Phorum 1.5 a while back just to see how it would run. It took a little configuring. I think Phorum 3 required registered globals. Not 100% sure though.by Brian Moon - Phorum Support
Re: Need Embed Video Module - 15 years ago
I have written such an animal for a 3rd party. Video encoding is a bear. Delivery is very complicated as well due to the emergence of HTML 5. If you wanted to commit to MPEG4 and Flash you could, but its not very future proof. The short answer is that this is not something that can be easily done in a portable manner. It requires a lot of moving parts. The quick and dirty way that would breakby Brian Moon - Phorum Hack/Mod Requests

Module: Automatic Mobile Template - 15 years ago
This module lets you pick a template to have automatically enabled when a mobile device is detected. You can select the template to use and you can enter the user agent keywords to look for to enable the template. There is a new Mobile Template that works with this module. Feel free to make your own. This module is running here at Phorum.org. Changelog: ---------- 2015-09-11 v1.0.3 Olby Brian Moon - v5/v6 Modules/Add-Ons
Template: Mobile Template - 15 years ago
I have create a new mobile template that supersedes the old iPhone Template. This one should work in Android and Opera mini as well. It should in general look better on the iPhone as well. Also, it has more coverage of Phorum features. You can read and post. You can also read and post private messages. Any page not available will return a message stating that the page is not supported in the mobiby Brian Moon - v5/v6 Templates

Re: Email notifications not being delivered - 15 years ago
GoDaddy probably has the port blocked or something like that. They are nothing more than a domain squatting host and should never be used for a real web site that has real code in use.by Brian Moon - Phorum Support
Re: Email notifications not being delivered - 15 years ago
Looks like you are hosting on Windows. I am guessing whatever mail daemon GoDaddy is using on Windows is broken. Not much you can do about it. I use qmail on this server and as you can see, Phorum can send/receive emails just fine with it. So, the problem is likely not in Phorum or qmail, but in your choice of host.by Brian Moon - Phorum Support
Re: Phorum Error - 15 years ago
That field was added by the 2004112600.php upgrade file. Did you see any errors during earlier steps? You could run the alter query from 2004112600.php manually and then proceed.by Brian Moon - Phorum Support
