Here's what I have so far:

1. Add custom titles back into database, posts

Action needed: Add database key in user database, add custom titles per user, edit PHPBB script to display custom title.

Status: Working on it.

2. Fix "wide posts make entire thread wide" bug

Action needed: View HTML, find where the master <table> </table> tag is, remove it.

Status: Will work on it after issue #1 is completed

3. Make buttons on top of pegasus3d.com lickable widgets like in OSY, to make it more consistent

Status: Considering it, will work on it on and off

4. Finish enabling the rest of the smilies from OSY 1.0

Status: about 30% done. Continuing to add them one at a time until boredom takes over my soul and leaves me a haunted, broken man

I'm sure there was something else, but now I can't remember it.

Oh yeah,

5. Swap the damn "Preview" and "Submit" buttons already!

Action needed: Go into the HTML for posting and editing a new message, swap buttons.

Status: Looking into it.

That's all for now.

Aha, I see by the button order below, that #5 is done.

And on the editing screen as well! I am good.

Post deletion - enabled, you're welcome.

(3) https://pegasus3d.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1263

As for HTML, I would assume that phpBB has script-neutering capabilities (something that Infopop have as yet been unable to get right... :rolleyes: ).

As for a good reason, I find it less clumsy to type than UBB/BB/Ikoncode, and they are, of course, considerably more expressive. It's particularly for discussion of anything programmery that I like it.

How about increasing the number of posts per page? Fifteen is a little short IMHO.

OSY 1.0 was set to 25 posts per page, so I'll set it to that.

#3 is now complete: the main buttons at the top of pegasus3d.com are now more in reflection with the general Aqua-esque feel of OSY.

All that remain are #1: custom titles and #2: wide post fix.

If someone can tell me the SQL command to add a table/field to a database, I can get cracking on #1.

Like Pizza said, if phpbb can ignore scripts, then please consider turning on HTML. If not, that's fine too. I'm just glad to have OSY, it's a sanity saver. Smile

Is it possible to get a profile option to define the number of posts you can have per page?

I'm rather preferential to a high posts per page ratio because I don't have to click "next" every 30 seconds.

hmm... the variable is there, but I can't seem to access it to print it out.. I'm probably missing one of the files prior to the one that actually prints it out (the .tpl template)

EDIT: I've found the file that sets the variable $POSTER_RANK and such, and I've set it to set $POSTER_CUSTOM = user_custom but it ain't working... still working on it..

The lickable buttons up top /me points up, you know, the red, purple and blue one? Well, they need to have a transparent background. Mainly coz people who don't use White as the default window color see the boxes, and it detracts [stoner] from the beauty of the buttons, and it's a heavy bummer, a real down, ya know? [/stoner].

Not a huge issue, just something that bugs me.
