Dear SM community,
I hate to be bringer of bad news but Supermod will not be released anytime soon. PHP5 has been released and due to its changes I need to make changes in Supermod. Ever since the release of PHP 4.4.1 predefined variables have been depreciated. What that means is I've ran into some new problems with Supermod.. It won't run on PHP5 or 4.4.1 in IIS. The code base we been using were built on php version standards prior to those new versions PHP released. I am currently going through every single file of SM and converting the http_var predefines that are throughout all of the code to the new standards. Then after I accomplish this I will have to throughly test everything, make more tweaks, debug and retest multiple times over. I need help with this and like always I am doubting my own abilitys and I fear I won't be able to convert SM to work with the changes. So please if you see me struggling too long and think you can help out please give me a hand ok? Thanks for understanding and sorry the delays. Here's the link from PHP's website that specs out the new changes, http://us2.php.net/reserved.variables. I do not know yet what else other than these specs I will need to change in SM code, I guess I'll find that out as I go along.
Sigh.. just when we started to see the end of the long tunnel..

Well, you have all weekend, no? 
No worries, and no rush. 3.0.0 is the most feature rich, smoothest running forum software out there. 
#3 By: kriskd Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 30.Jan.06 18:06:29
Does this mean if our server upgrades to PHP5, SM 3.0 won't work anymore?
#4 By: webmaster Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 30.Jan.06 18:42:50
Yes this is what it means. If your server upgrades to either 4.4.1 or 5.0 PHP SM will not work anymore. I am doing my best to make sure this wont happen but you have to give me time.. in essence PHP has f*cked us up. The best way around this if your host upgrades is to ask them to retain the earlier version of PHP and change your port over to the earlier version.
#5 By: kriskd Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 30.Jan.06 19:01:22
My version of PHP is 4.4.2 and my forum works. If you don't think this is right, let me know and I'll verify the version with my webhost. I could be wrong.
#6 By: mrselnombre Subject:Re:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 30.Jan.06 19:14:22
i'm running 4.4.1 and it still works
#7 By: webmaster Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 30.Jan.06 19:49:46
This could be a problem associated with only Microsoft Windows IIS then. However I do know that we're running into problems with PHP version 5. on a Unix server.
I am running into errors using out of the box PHP installation on Windows IIS Server and have no way to tell or test on a unix box.
The reason I know that SM isn't running on PHP 5 on a unix box is because I been informed this from Chickenback who is running a host service. He's hosting the Rupert's grint site and he's upgraded his server to PHP5. After he alerted me I installed PHP 4.4 on my work and home machines, which are IIS. I'm running into serveral issues. Now either I dont have the PHP.INI file configured correctly which I doubt since I've installed PHP default as I would assume most hosts would do OR because I don't have PHP.INI reconizing depreciated PHP settings.
The fact is, if there is depreciated PHP settings then those settings will soon go away. They are being supported by 4.4.1 but according to PHP.NET they wont be in PHP 5. Things like http vars for instance, you can use $HTTP_SERVER_VARS in PHP 4.4.1 if you enabled the PHP directive register_globals. But since that setting introduces vunerabilities into PHP they by default now disable it in PHP.INI. In version 5 They wont even reconize $HTTP_SERVER_VARS, you have to use $_SERVER instead.
I've gone through all of the code and changed the predefined variables to what PHP.NET documents them to be for new versions of PHP. But I am running into a million constraint errors and a million invalid unknown variable errors currently, things like $txt[23] = 'some description'; is invalid because PHP expects it to be $txt['23'] = 'some description'; instead now. I am also running into numerous query errors.
Mayhem and code panic is on my schedule. If all of this is due to me not turning on some accepted setting in PHP.INI or in MySQL's MY.INI then please someone tell me. If these switches are going to be eliminated then I guess I am on the right track.

Posted on a MySQL and PHP Support forum site, maybe someone there or anyone reading this here can help me out.. I'm stuck with no clue as to what's going on here:
Greets forum, first time caller and listener. I author a php forum called supermod, a heavily re modified version of once was a yabbse forum package.
About a week ago one of my host friends alerted me to some bad news; he had installed a new host free bsd server with php5 and informed me that supermod wouldn't run on it.
Since then I installed IIS on my personal workstation (I don?t have access to any Nix machines) with php 4.4.1 and mysql 5 thinking that let me first test this on 4.4.1 then I?ll upgrade to PHP5. Previously I was using easyphp to do all my development testing and never had any issues with my forum code.
After switching over I've run into numerous notice and exception errors that I've corrected. Oddly though nobody else using my forum package has ever reported any difficulties with it and I got confirmation that they are using at the very least php 4.4.1.
So here I am stuck with a rather odd problem I cannot for the life of me find the solution for, and I am beginning to wonder if maybe there's something else I am neglecting like maybe a forgotten about my.ini or php.ini setting that would make all these errors go away.
Whatever the case may be, until I learn there is indeed a setting that I am not aware of I am proceeding to debug all of the code and correct these errors. Currently I am hopelessly stuck with this one particular error.. Here's the query that's causing it (the variables changed to hard coded values in order to manually run the query)..
SELECT t.ID_LAST_MSG, t.ID_TOPIC, m.ID_MEMBER, IFNULL( mem.realName, m.posterName ) AS posterDisplayName FROM yabbsm_topics AS t, yabbsm_messages AS m LEFT JOIN yabbsm_members AS mem ON ( mem.ID_MEMBER = m.ID_MEMBER ) LEFT JOIN yabbsm_log_topics AS lt ON ( lt.ID_TOPIC = t.ID_TOPIC AND lt.ID_MEMBER =1 ) LEFT JOIN yabbsm_log_mark_read AS lmr ON ( lmr.ID_BOARD =1 AND lmr.ID_MEMBER =1 ) AND m.ID_MSG = t.ID_LAST_MSG;
|
|
Running this query results in #1054 - Unknown column 't.ID_TOPIC' in 'on clause'
I don?t understand why it?s not recognizing the table yabbsm_topics ID_TOPIC column. If I remove that Left Join out of the code it craps with a #1054 - Unknown column 't.ID_LAST_MSG' in 'on clause' error. So what the heck? The code doesn?t seem to be reading any of the table columns. If I only leave one LEFT JOIN statement in the code; LEFT JOIN yabbsm_log_mark_read AS lmr ON ( lmr.ID_BOARD =1 AND lmr.ID_MEMBER =1 ) I get a #1054 - Unknown column 'mem.realName' in 'field list' error.
Manually I am able to manipulate the data with inserts and I can call simple select statements without a problem, so this couldn?t be database corruption.
Does anyone here have any suggestions as to what?s going on? Like maybe it?s a my.ini or php.ini issue or maybe it?s how mysql 5.0.16 is handling querys???
#9 By: webmaster Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 01.Feb.06 01:50:50
Ok, I finally did something bright. I got answers to my question about this. According to devshed my problem is MYSQL5.
http://forums.devshed.com/t301347/s.html
Now if I can get someone to show me by example using the posted query I'll be fine and should be able to pick this up and run with it. Any takers?
#10 By: webmaster Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 01.Feb.06 18:19:16
I have the board running.. I had a heck of the time with the querys untill I found out that with mysql5 you have to enclose your from (table as a, table as b, table as c) table aliases. Now that's done and I've gone through line after line and defined missing constanents as far as I can go. What I am stuck with at the present moment is the board isnt remembering logins.. so i cant access post or admin panels or profiles. Before I can debug all of them I need help in re-writing the cookie handler in load.php.. Maybe we can get away from cookies and move over to session handling. Of course, chances are I won't get much help so let's see how this will take me.. Working hours and hours on the codebase between the 3 days so far has gotten me a bit far in the positive note..
OK.. cookies are not working.. So I'm not able to stay logged in.. &^#*@(&^(!!!,.. This delays my progress...
#11 By: webmaster Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 02.Feb.06 14:26:03
Ok I got past the MySQL changes in table rules.. Now I'm revamping the code and removing cookies.. I'm implimenting sessions based handling.. Or least I'm trying to impliment sessions.
Update:
Finally got cookies to work, now I know why they dont at times. Now that I am able to login I can go through the rest of the code.
#12 By: imagineopenes Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 03.Feb.06 02:56:09
wow, you are really busting your tail on this... I don't know the changes in mysql 5 well enough to be of help, but if I get some free time I will purchase a manual and go through deprecations etc... even if you get things working I will look for future deprecating stuff... I really wish I had an extra day in every week that only I could use... 
#13 By: webmaster Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 03.Feb.06 13:40:11
Yeah I am busting my tail on this. I either bust my tail or I walk away and say screw it. But I've never been known to be a defeatist, hell that's the reason why SM came into being.. It?s a reflection of my determination. John I can easily show you what the major differences are. Here are the rules that have been broken in SM, I will be updating this post with new rules as I find them.
? 1. Always declair your variables. for instance, if ($msg>0) {$msg='value' .. thats all good and fine if $msg happens to be greater than 0.. but what happens when it isn't? the variable isn't defined and with mysql5 and php4.4.1 it breaks.
? 2. Calling multiple columns like this "SELECT a.x, b.x, c.x FROM {db_prefix}table as a, {db_prefix}table as b, {db_prefix}table as c" was always acceptable up until now. the FROM section of the query has to be enclosed in parenthesis () in order for each table to be recognized as being called from. the statement now becomes "SELECT a.x, b.x, c.x FROM ({db_prefix}table as a, {db_prefix}table as b, {db_prefix}table as c)".
? 3. All constants are quoted, in other words every single language definition had to be changed. for instance $txt[yse251] = 'Split Topic'; became $txt['yse251'] = 'Split Topic'; and everywhere $txt[yse251] was used it was changed to $txt['yse251']. This applies to each and every single language translation.
? 4. All array values are quoted, you don?t realize how many times I seen $row[ID_TOPIC] or some other array value that should of been $row['ID_TOPIC'].
? 5. INSERT Values are all supposed to be encapped with quotes. Example of bad coding: VALUES ('$threadid', $ID_MEMBER, $subject, '$name'). This properly written would of been: VALUES ('$threadid', '$ID_MEMBER', '$subject', '$name')
Here's what I told Datarunner and this is what I am telling anyone else:
I closed ftp access. The reason for me doing so is this site install version, 3.5PR, will be available only for sites that are running mysql versions below version 5 and PHP version 4.4.1. I will have to install a new site for the new version supermod that will run for mysql version 5 and php 5. I am practically rebuilding sm from the ground up. You can help but here's how I am arranging help. I have logmein installed on a private webserver. Anyone can remote in and work on code but only one person at a time. If this wont work for you then you'll have to wait untill I either have installed the new version as a separate copy on site or when I have told chris to go ahead and update his mysql and php and I installed the new version over this existing site.
Meanwhile what you can do on your own are the following things:
? 1. rebuild the installer and upgrade scripts so that they are 100% compliant with mysql5 and php5, also rebuild them to where they are smarter and more managable. install smf as a learning tool to experience the differences between installers. take what you learned and apply it in sm. or
? 2. rebuild the admin control panel of sm, completely revamp the layout and put everything that belongs with each other into their own panel. make the control panel smarter and sharper looking. make sure the code is completely mysql5 and php5 compliant. or
? 3. assist me by making sure the smupgrade sql file will be 110% in sync with what the sminstall sql file. I have had to make changes in numerous column and tables because with mysql5 it did not like certain columns. for instance some columns we had as tinyint, the data generated was beyond the scope of tinyint.. earlier versions of mysql was forgiving, mysql 5 isnt. so i had to change those columns to reflect what type of data we were entering in them, so I changed them to int. what was the big difference between the two? tinyint does not accept negative numbers, however we were putting in the column -1 values. So what we now have is numerous table and column changes that are not shown in smupgrade.sql... they are only shown in sminstall.sql.. So this needs to be worked on.
I will not allow any more "garbage" be put into SM.. from now on I am serious about fixing the crap assed garbage code that's made SM completely useless now that MySQL and PHP has decided that they are going to be stringent and unforgiving about careless code habits. From now on I am working on this alone and making dammed sure its done right. If you want to help you can do so by doing those 3 things and by remoting in and working on the code with me and with my direct supervision. I cannot do this any other way, I have the ability to control on my work machines what version of MySQL is installed and what version of PHP is installed.
Once I get SM past these changes that are required in order to operate in PHP 4.4.1 and MySQL 5 then I can move the code back into this site and open up the access for further development. Untill then work with me directly via logmein remote. It's easy, free and will allow you to use my equipment with the editor and tools at hand as if you were on your own machine.
#14 By: webmaster Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 06.Feb.06 05:09:02
Progress report:
Along with a little help from imagineopens, chickenback, splungent, McJeroen and maybe others we're making strides with the code to snap it back into the new stringent requirements that MySQL5 and PHP 4.4.1 and greater are dictating. I'm putting in most of the man hours into the project but hope to see steady attendance from the teammates as we progress. At the rate we are going on this we should have SM buttoned up within a month and then we can start on the exciting stuff like getting the control panel remodeled and the layout looking nicer. Please be patient as we progress and if you have any code talents at all and think you could help contact me.

I have 3.0 working quite well on servers running 4.4.1 am i missing something???
#16 By: webmaster Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 07.Feb.06 13:32:49
As confusing as I am beginning to sound... I am speculating either:
1. I am running into errors because this is a out of the box PHP install on the test server or
2. I am running into errors because I have error reporting enabled in the PHP install or
3. I am running into errors because I have changed error_reporting in index.php to E_ALL or
4. I am running into errors because I am using IIS instead of Apache
Whatever the cause of it, all along SM has had these improper code formats in the code base. Even if these errors have been caused by a oversight on my part in setting up php and mysql on a IIS server the fact remains these code formats are an issue. Maybe a issue ignored in most setups and nobody ever notices them. If your running your install with MySQL 5 and PHP 4.4.1 and your not having any issues that's wonderfull, show me your php.ini file so I can learn why I'm having issues
Let me know also if it's IIS or Apache your running under.
Personally in my opinion this whole fiasco is giving me a chance to snap SM into a very clean code base that follows the standards all across the board.
#17 By: webmaster Subject:Mostly daily update Time: 08.Feb.06 19:44:00
Just so that the SM visitors who are keen on knowing how we're doing with SM recoding; I'll do my best to post back here the
little notes we're leaving each other on the development server.
Maybe I should of turned this into a "blog"...
Thanks Oliver, I've fixed the reason why you couldn't post see description in the forum.
I'm currently working on profile, timeFormat or $settings[17] is by default empty so I have to
determine if this should be preset default 0 (change the column in the db) or work around
with a isset.
Update : worked it with a isset
$modSettings['pmoderationglobalmods'] in profile don't even exist in db or in anywhere else for
that matter. We need to determine what we wanted for this value. According to the code we
are checking for moderators. I'll get back on this in the morning,. Meanwhile note that I have
line 36 checking to see if this is the user editing his/her profile disabled. When it's enabled
I am unable to login labrat.
Update: Removed that value from profile, apparently we wanted any moderator to edit profiles
which I dont agree with. Good thing this never worked since the db entry was never in the database.
I Changed my forced profile edit, have it setup within function redirect instead of how it
is was setup in loginoff.php. It'll actually work better now.
Rebuilt profile's SET UPDATE DB_MEMBERS Query, line 1622 which is a very long update query, multiple
values / variables unreconized and MySQL columns were not accepting zero values. Two primary column
values poststogether and ShowOnline will not reset to defaults now everytime a user edits profile.
Apparently they would have done so under the current coding.
Not to determine 8: Undefined offset: 6 (E:\Development\community\Sources\Profile.php ln 2163)
error, indicates location column in db_members is empty.. I thought I worked on that allready..
back to work now..
#18 By: webmaster Subject:Update 2-9 Time: 10.Feb.06 03:30:31
We've gotten the majority of the incompatability issues out of the way. There's still some db query and write to db issues we're looking at. While we are at it we're re-writing the code base to use true session handling with the option of cookie handling that blends in with the db based session handling. We also are going to re-do the layout of the control panel while we're in the code and maybe we'll even redo the boardindex to look more xp modern..
Things are progressing at a good rate and you all will be very pleased with the results. We're putting in serious hours in the code base, more focus and attention than we ever had before because of the sudden suprise that MySQL5 and PHP 4.4.1 has pulled. I anticipate at this rate of progress we should be rolling the new site changes here on this site within 2 months at the most. Course please like always never hold me up to my calculations, I have to depend on my teamates participating with me when we develop SM so delays are almost always expected to happen. But like I said, we're really focusing more time and attention on the code the last two weeks than we ever had before so maybe this will make a big difference.. Shortly after we have it running on this site we'll release SM 4.00 (we'll jump ahead and passup 3.55).
You know visitors, it would be nice to hear what you have to say sometimes.. As many times as I make my remarks in the chit chat area surely somebody would have an opposing opinion and the desire to express it..
#19 By: JasonMonette Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 10.Feb.06 18:29:50
Wiz I am looking forward to the new release!

Welcome to the life of most admins.
Back in the early days of my message forum I struggled everyday to come up with something "interesting" to post that might spark some conversation. Fortunatley all my hard work paid off and even though I'd love to have more activity, I got a good group of dedicated posters who love my forum and the software that powers it it.
Keep up all the great work SM Team! SMF isn't for me, I know that for sure!
#21 By: webmaster Subject:Update 2-12 Time: 12.Feb.06 18:47:21
Corrected the 2: getdate(): Cannot perform date calculation error we were getting when a user views a newly approved pre-registration user. Now both pre-registration user and normal registration user processes date() stamp db_members lastOnline, LastLogout, and lastLogin columns along with dateRegistered.
However the last time online: display in user profile is showing 9:22:38 AM when the registration time and last login time shows 12:22:38 which indicates the value for $lastOnline in line 1909 is not respecting the
default system timeoffset setting. That should be next to work on.
Notifications are completly running now and corrected misstranslations in the send mail function calls evoked when notifications are triggered.
Warnings are corrected now so that you can't warn guests (whoever expected that you could must of overlooked that logic)
DR created a new LoadUser routine in Load.php line 257 which for the sake of optimization when doing changes calls $memberloadstring, a new string defined in index.php . This affects LoginOut.php: DR moved the {$db_prefix}member load string to index.php (line 100( because LoadUser needs access to it too, in case the username could'nt be found a dummy array can get created from the list if the second paramter is true. This could have been accomplished by
hardcoding it into the source but DR found a solution where all array fields get set from the new $memberloadstring.
So LoginOut.php accesses $memberloadstring from index.php line 100 when loading the member data.
Calender is still mungled, that's next on the list.
#22 By: webmaster Subject:Update 2-16 Time: 16.Feb.06 13:00:27
We have most all the core functions of SM debugged and operational again. We are now reducing the amount of querys that the code generates and we anticipate this will drastically speed up the board. We also are working on the enhanced banning functions at the moment and will have that feature working like it should.

Well, by the time you do get the time to join in Oliver and I will have most of it buttoned down and we might even have it redesigned in places. Oliver is working on the admin panel currently, and he's told me some really cool things he's going
to do with it. Maybe you can help us test every single option in the setup. That alone is tedious. Keep warm, I'm sure your not enjoying a cold home whilst being buried in snow drifts over there.

Yes I am aware of that error here on this site. I am not even going to bother with that error here on this site but we will do something about it on the development site. Get with me if you forgot how to access the development site, it's remote access.

We have the code pretty much debugged and working with the new versions of MySQL and PHP. Datarunner is working on the control panel redesign at the moment. I have not been on the code much myself over the last 2 weeks. First I was swamped with work projects and now I am trying play catch up. I ended up in the hospital Wednesday morning with symptoms of a heart attack. They put me in critical care unit for observations, blood tests, ultra sounds and heart stress tests. Turns out my heart is in good shape with no signs of prior heart problems or current ones. What I am experiencing is GERT or better known as Gastro Esophagial Reflux Desease. I'm ordered to take 3 months of Protonix and unrelated but highly important the Doctor also wished for me to go and get an appointment for a Colonoscophy. I'll do my best to get back into the code game here within a few days. I am looking forward to wowing all of you with our new build in progress.
#28 By: imagineopenes Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 12.Mar.06 02:36:26
Oh my that must have been terifying! I had a colonoscopy that thing is a nightmare, well the prep is a nightmare...
I am glad you got a good ticker, I bet my ticker isnt so hot with all the fast food i eat. I am glad things are going well with the most recent build. More kudos to the SM team. If I can save some money up soon Ill try to send something through pay pal being I haven't been able to help out with coding.

We are in the process of reducing the amount of querys that the code is using, that should speed things up a bit.

suprised at how it runs on php5 i was expecting complete meltdown, especially as it is a very busy forum, but it runs pretty well.
#32 By: webmaster Subject:Re:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 13.Mar.06 17:03:20
Well, what I think we have here is an old error reporting error in yabbse's part. Take a look in your index.php file and you'll see this line: error_reporting (E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);
What I did was change that to error_reporting (E_ALL);. I dont believe error reporting was actually working, not in the format that Jeff Lewis wrote it in on yabbse. I also dont believe this was the only problem. Eugene reported to me that after he upgraded his server and moved rupert's site over to his new server, rupert's site wouldnt work at all. Eugene could of had his php.ini setup to report on all errors. I know this for sure, there has been a great number of improperly formatted code errors. Errors that could of been ignored unless error_reporting was set to E_ALL. For the sake of experimentation why dont you change your error_reporting (E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE); to error_reporting (E_ALL); in Index.php and see what happens.

For the sake of experimentation why dont you change your error_reporting (E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE); to error_reporting (E_ALL); in Index.php and see what happens.

Yep. that confirms it then. We've gotten it straightened up for the most part. I gotta put the package through extensive testing before I feel comfortable with having the rest of you test it.
#35 By: webmaster Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 17.May.06 01:43:40
Portal function on SM site is temp shut down. I also see that the shout box isnt working.. I do not yet know what's going on.. I am working with the server admin, splungent, to narrow this down..
#36 By: Snowman Subject:Re:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 05.Jun.06 14:24:13
I have supermod running on PHP 5.0.5 without any issues. The only issue i have come acorss which now causes problems is MySQL 5
Since upgrading to it the forums are buggered with the error:
Unknown column 't.ID_BOARD' in 'on clause' File: /home/stadmin/public_html/forums/Sources/Display.php Line: 264 |

Is there any code or patches to help get us thru till the next release comesout?
#37 By: webmaster Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 05.Jun.06 14:40:44
Unfortunatly no, we do not have any patches availible. I'll get out a preliminary package availible by this weekend but there may be some bugs in it unforseen. I simply havent had the time lately to devote to SM, I've moved to a new location 650 miles from my home town and got married yesterday. .We're still settling in our new home and new life and new career. But I should be able to spend at least 4 hours between now and this weekend to get something bundled up for you ok?

That would be brilliant 
And congratulations [clap]
oh and i know what the move thing is like we are building a new house 150kms away from where we currently live and we travel back and forward on the weekends to work on it
#39 By: webmaster Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 12.Jun.06 15:17:15
Sorry Snowman and everyone else waiting, we've did not get the package up over the weekend as I hoped. I simply did not have the free time I wanted. That and Datarunner found some more things to correct and both of us wants to see session handling completed before we pack this code up. So please, give us another 2 weeks ok?

I want to share this dialog that Datarunner and I are having. We're at a cross road really, and I am calling out to the occasional visitor that will by chance see this post. We need your help. Anyone who wants to see SM revived and come out of this strong is encouraged to join us. Please read the dialog and think about what you can do to help us.
I want to see SM live.. But maybe this is just a dream that only a few share. Eventually when my life settles in and my job isn?t so loaded as it is, I'll be able to spend long hours and days back in SM..
I'm no longer in Indiana where I had time on my hands. I now work in a world where everything is fast paced and work for a organization that needed me 3 years ago.. But they didn?t get me until a month ago. All the things I have to do keep me running from the moment I enter the office until the second I leave it. Then by the time I make it home it's late and I'm exhausted. It's for these reasons I just don't have the time or energy right now.. Not until this big project at work is fully implemented and things settle down for me.
I pray that time to devote to what I been supporting and working on for almost 5 years will some soon..

These things your working on independently like the wikipedia and coppermine plug in pretty much stalls me on doing anything. The reason why is I don?t know where you?re at, and where I should go. We were supposed to been working together on the code base. But since you?re not working with me we're off in a tangent making changes separately. I feel this is going to bring us problems; we should be putting our efforts in this together.
Jeff never did anything on his own, he always had his partners and they always worked together as a team. The three original partners of yabbse built a loyal following of contributors, but this was back when there weren?t any other forum packages available. Back when people worked together as a team to build projects. I cant get that now.. Least, I have been unable to get anyone to work together as a team. With the market now flooded with multiple forum packages and php gaining in popularity with multiple projects all over the Open Source world, its hard to find anyone who would want to volunteer efforts.
Datarunner, you and I are the last men standing for SM. If you and I can?t revive the development and interest in SM then we should just let it go. Since you?re working independently on these add ins and other things, perhaps you should take the lead and take over SM and re-package it under whatever title/name you want it to be.

Nah, I see it the same way as you do, but I still have Hope.
If I only could spend more time on this ...
I still have to work on some other things... in October I am writing my tests. Sorry to write you that...
I am still developing on a map implementation, not by google maps but map24.com. It could be finished in a few days.
I have a 300KB Group management feature which could be interesting for some people, but it's a special project.
I also see that there are new technologies being developed, like Ajax (www.ajaxian.com).
I wonder how SMF is doing. They seem to have some more templates and fewer bugs. And they seem to earn money with what they are doing.
Anyhow I have asked some girl to create a new button set. And I also get support by some personal friends for the group management tool (->300KB) I have written. It could happen that at least two huge boards could have interest in what I have written.
I have also asked Nox if he wants to have the coppermine plugin for supermod. (This works for 99%, except that CHANGES in the profiles do not update in the coppermine member list). If this works, at least we have the first forum possibly working with coppermine, although it's a simple plugin.
The wikipedia plugin for supermod works, but it needs some additional code and a way of displayal through xmlhttprequest (also known as ajax), for which I have a book which is appearing by the end of this month.
As soon as I have finished the map24 pin function in combination with my groups feature, I have to work on sth. for my uncle who has a small webdesign company. Some shopping function with oscommerce. As soon as I have time - and that's approximately in a month (I know that my dates and times are not very precise), I will put interest on the cookie problem of Supermod. And hopefully, starting with November, there will be time to work on the codebase of supermod for php 5.
What I am wondering and what would me glad to know, did Jeff Lewis do all the programming on his own for YaBBSe or with how much code did he come up, before YaBBSM came out and all the other stuff, back in 2003... ?
thank u for your interest

You have some great ideas Oliver and I would love to see things like this put into place. However you and I are the only two people that seem to be interested into doing anything for SM anymore. McJeron has left the ship due to he has a new life now with a baby and a new job. John has been chronically absent and that?s due to his new home, his wife expecting a baby and his job is demanding more from him. I haven?t been much helping myself either because of the move and the new job.
I am so frustrated about this.. I guess I will have to start financially pushing money into the SM again, offering incentives and paying programmers to get themselves involved in the project. I either do that or we kiss this baby goodnight and put it out of its misery, we've gotten to a point now that very few are concerned, very little is being done, and very few are interested.. And its a dammed shame its gotten to this, we have put so much into the project and we see so much in possibilities that this project has and can have.

We need more bug testers.
I suppose we can make this a good forum anyway, but we need to get Supermod really working. I have just installed Supermod on goldmountaindiscus.com. With the supermod 3.0 release a lot of things had to get changed in the configuration afterwards. The whole photoalbum had to get set correctly, the online path had to get created manually etc...
Currently phpbb is faster and not as big as supermod, but these differences will vanish in the next year. Then it will be about what forum will be better for community building. And that is why a lot of things have to be done in supermod...
I would like to see supermod go into the direction of mindviz.com.
I do believe that with maybe 3,4 motivated php programmers we can create a better forum that phpbb.
Unfortunately I am not available until the end of this year, but beginning with next year I am going to work on the bugfixes and on more features, whatever they are.
If anybody knows programming in javascript, please contact me. I have taken a closer look at the phpbb template engine and if you are motivated to do sth. about the templating of supermod and know javascript (for programming sth. in fckeditor) please contact me.

I suppose we are the idea-givers, and how many people are working on Supermod? I suppose not many...
I mean, in phpbb that might be more than 20 people, or?
anyway we have a chance, I got some special improvements like: group management (95%), wikipedia implementation (90%), coppermine gallery implementation (working), and you can take a look at a javascript menu staying at a fixed position on http://www.heidelfreaks.de/community (95 - 100%)
I am not currently working on supermod, but I hope to do that in a few weeks. At latest in November, when I have finished all my written tests, in the beginning of November!

I have just installed Supermod on goldmountaindiscus.com. With the supermod 3.0 release a lot of things had to get changed in the configuration afterwards. The whole photoalbum had to get set correctly, the online path had to get created manually etc...
Currently phpbb is faster and not as big as supermod, but these differences will vanish in the next year. Then it will be about what forum will be better for community building. And that is why a lot of things have to be done in supermod... I would like to see supermod go into the direction of mindviz.com.
I do believe that with maybe 3,4 motivated php programmers we can create a better forum that phpbb.
Unfortunately I am not available until the end of this year, but beginning with next year I am going to work on the bugfixes and on more features, whatever they are.
If anybody knows programming in javascript, please contact me. I have taken a closer look at the phpbb template engine and if you are motivated to do sth. about the templating of supermod and know javascript (for programming sth. in fckeditor) please contact me.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I suppose we are the idea-givers, and how many people are working on Supermod? I suppose not many... I mean, in phpbb that might be more than 20 people, or? anyway we have a chance, I got some special improvements like: group management (95%), wikipedia implementation (90%), coppermine gallery implementation (working), and you can take a look at a javascript menu staying at a fixed position on http://www.heidelfreaks.de/community (95 - 100%)
I am not currently working on supermod, but I hope to do that in a few weeks. At latest in November, when I have finished all my written tests, in the beginning of November!

Guys,
I am almost finished with the renovation of my house. By the end of Aug. I will have more time and have my computer lab set up. Although I am not a crack PHP programmer I understand the syntax and have experience with python, Perl, html, HTML and some javascript. I can help out by promotion, bug testing, documentation, small programming tasks, system administration, log parsing and many other things that don't require an expert programmer. I will also have access to multiple test servers. Linux and windows. I have always been a supporter of the software but have been in the same boat as many others with job and family responsibilities. I will step up to help in any way I can. We may want to advertise outside of this website to attract other developers and programmers as there isn't much traffic on here. Possibly a project page on sourceforge or a PHP coding website. We could make a page on the supermod site asking for certain talents or listing things we need done ( a kind "We Need Coders" web page.), then we could look up the PHP coding websites and post a request for assistance linking our "We Need Coders" web page. We need a way to go to where the developers are and attract them to here. Let me know what I can do. I would not enjoy seeing this project die and I would then be forced to replace very large message boards on more than one site!

We stalled but we're not dead in the water. After I posted this Datarunner jumped in and said he's ready to kick into gear again. Were we are at in SM code is at the full testing and debugging stage. I have the code installed on my home pc and Datarunner is able to use logmein remote to get into my home machine. This allows him and I to test and debug and recode the SM code base. I am using PHP5 and MySQL 4.4.1 on the development machine. Splungent If you want to get involved in helping us kickstart the development then what I can do is give you logmein remote access to my machine also. You can go through each and every function of the forum and report back to us where you are finding faults. If you think you can fix those faults yourself you can use the editing tools I have on the machine which are textpad, dreamweaver and editplus or you can download your own favorite software onto my machine in install it on my machine via remote. After we have completly gone over all of the functions of SM and have insured they all work with the new standards (which by the way we were 80% complete when we left off), we will then have you upgrade your server with the latest PHP and MySQL and we will migrate the new code over here. Then that will give us the opportunity for multiple people from the internet to further test the forum out and we can release our new version for beta. Let me know if you want to get involved in this fashion, I will IM you the logmein particulars. I also will give you access to the developers thread on this site so you can join in, in fact I've done that now so see you there.

Wiz,
I am definetly in. I will definetly be able to test and report. Like I said I will be finishing the construction around my house over the next 30 to 40 days after which I will have more free time available. I can get started looking over the project and familiarizing myself with your proceedures. Send me the info and I will check everything out. I think we can get things going again! We just needed a restructuring!

Any word on when the new release will be out?
#45 By: webmaster Subject:Re:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 21.Aug.06 01:58:24
Do you want it before it's finished? That may cause you more problems than its worth but if you can put some time into development I'll arrange for * development * releases.. **** Those that get it must sign a NDA and must be active in development of it ******. Otherwise we're working on it. We're hoping to have it wrapped up to install here on this site soon but not sure yet when we'll be releasing it.

Cool, I was just checking. Let me know when you want to test it on working sites. I have tested every other Beta version of SM, so I would be happy to test the new version as well and report back any bugs that I find.
What does NDA stand for?
#47 By: webmaster Subject:Re:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 21.Aug.06 02:17:59
NDA = Non Discloseur Agreement. I need people that are higher up than testors. You must have MySQL 5.0.18 - 5.0.24 and PHP 5.1.2 - 5.1.4 installed. You would be depended on to find the code errors still existing and to complete the button sets ( buttons provided ) for the new admin panel layout. You would need to be comfortable with PHP language.

I will check to see what version my host is running and get back to you....
#49 By: webmaster Subject:Re:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 23.Aug.06 01:40:15
Buttonsets for the new admin panel can be written off. .I took care of that yesterday. Datarunner is working out the kinks in a wiki feature.
Cool stuff man.. Here's a teaser of what the Admin panel looks like:

Any Updates Gents?? We're chompin at the bit. Nice to see it up and running here!
#52 By: Datarunner Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 27.Sep.06 11:56:27
Although it's top secret, Supermod will come with a new gallery, kind of member map, and wiki plugin, that's also posted elsewhere on this board. I am currently working on the new menus and the menu
manager. Your can now define what the menu looks like on the top of the screen easily by
using a form in Supermod.
I am also going to implement a new group management tool where people can add their own boards.
All this released under GNU because I am not going to have enough time to work on these changes
on my own forever.

#53 By: Jack Subject:Re:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 27.Sep.06 14:21:12
you mean the GNU GPL? nice! so the whole supermod package will be GPLed? Don't forget that every (former) contributor who hasn't granted us all needed rights (like we did here on supermod.org) has to be asked for a license change.. but i would really appreciate this step ;o)
#54 By: Datarunner Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 27.Sep.06 19:46:45
Oh, sorry for not being exact enough. I do not know about licensing, what licenses came from YaBBSM and what rules we therefore have to be obeyed. If there are legal rights that would get disregarded this way we of course would not and cannot follow this idea. I anyhow am for free software, although I was thinking in the beginning, having programmed around 400KB of code for the group manager, of crypting the code ...
but then Wiziwig recommended to me to write sth. about it (Supermod in Development) and then recommended me to includ that into the next release, which I am working at.

#55 By: biggs Subject:Re:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 14.Oct.06 12:04:49
Any Idea on a date for the release?
#56 By: kriskd Subject:Re:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 14.Oct.06 13:45:15
Wow... those admin panel screen captures look great!! Keep us informed of your progress!
#57 By: Datarunner Subject:Supermod Release Suspended Time: 11.Nov.06 21:15:11
Hi,
I do not know where Wiziwig is, I could certainly log into his computer which is still online, on the development machine.
However he told me he needed some time until he can return.
So I am currently developing on Supermod on my own and thinking about a few things...
Here is what is already running:
* New admin interface as shown above - finished
* Wikipedia and Coppermine plugin - finished
* Map24 plugin - finished
* Menu manager - finished by 80%
So I am working on the template manager. There will also be a new group feature. I want an online bidding system be part of this group feature, which will be a runner. Then I am going to be working on a new installer, fixing some bugs in the attachment manager and the meeting map, and then it's ready to go. My time schedule tells me this will be by the end of this year, maybe a Christmas present/event. I am even thinking about making Supermod a plugin for Joomla, a CMS, so we can save us programming content stuff.
Too technically?
If you want Supermod to be released earlier, join me. Write a mail to me. I will be thankful/grateful.
When do you want Supermod 4.0 to be released, running under PHP 5? Do you need it *NOW* ?
Please don't mind me telling you this, but if Wiziwig will not have returned by two weeks, I will get the new Supermod package running online here then!
