Guest | | I'm ECSTATIC!!! (21st Jan 08 at 8:47am UTC) | | | I have to say this is awesome ROSS!!!! I went to eCreations and had seen the advertisement and clicked on it and i wanted to see what one of these was like and wow they are really what everyone on proboards have been wanting! the merging of thread, and easy setup for resizing the forum and everything, this setup is so much nicer in fact i am thinking about transferring all of my proboards forums into one of these forums! And what is seven greater is how you made everything a lot more compatible with things, like how people can code there own info center with htlm and the same with there mini-profiles...this is awesome....and yes i'm really happy because of the infor center i have been working on is compatible with these types of forums..but that leaves a question Ross..you do realize that doing this it will do one of two thing, either force proboards to step up and advance at a faster rate or that everyone from proboards is going to convert over...either way your going to end up making proboards your rival...well good luck and an awesome job..i really cant wait to see how this forum setup is going to tern out..but there is only one server for now isn't there? | |

I believe that there are two servers - one for forums and a separate one for this place. Ross will confirm it though  | |

We still have 2 servers but one hasn't been performing well recently so is now only used for emails. This forum (and a couple of others) run a beta version of the software but (at the moment) are on the same physical machine as all other forums. Having said that though, if this rate of growth continues (which it should do given our upcoming skin competition) then it won't be too long before we will need to setup a new server to host more forums | |

My post not showing only occurred because I posted from a different copy of the source code (one with it's own separate caching system) which I've been working on optimizing. I'm now using the correct method of posting and as such this will show up fine.
If you're entering any code directly into the info center then you need to be aware that all line breaks are removed. This means that <!--, --> and // cannot be used in the code as they'll comment out the entire thing.
Edit: As Graham said, if you need any more help with it then the coding boards will be the best place | |

vForums approaches upgrades differently than other forum providers. Rather than adding one giant update at a time, smaller updates are added to the test server, then converted bit by bit. This also decreases the amount of bug testing needed after each upgrade. | |

VB isn't an overly great forum system in my opinion, so I would hope VF isn't compared with VB [except if it's looking at how much better VF is. ] | |

Guest | | Re: I'm ECSTATIC!!! (22nd Jan 08 at 2:13am UTC) | | | well its a better system then some that i have seen at least the free ones...but i have to say that this forum would be better then a VB if it could adapt a real RPG system like VB can...but for the price of this forum and what it can do is what make it great so far. | |
