I finally got around the dang missing avatar issue by adding a replacement variable to the site template:

src="customavatars/

replaced with

src="http://www.mysite.com/forums/customavatars/

Which FINALLY fixed it. I don't know what the issue is with GRPS itself that it couldn't do that when the leader had no avatar, but I'm relieved to have done something about it and if anyone else has the issue, there's your fix.

Sabe ~ Does your forum store avatars in the file system, or in the DB?

file system.

Question (things I am coming across while trying to solve my own issues): What is the purpose of replycount and lastpost in the grps table? All of my groups have 0 for both of these items in the DB.

both were designed for implementation at a later date, sadly said later date won't happen until 3.0 at which point they're used to cache said information and ease burden on the database.

Forogt to mention before, too, that when posting to a thread, the posting rules say:

You may not post new threads
You may not post replies
You may not post attachments
You may not edit your posts

Even when the user does have permission.

i tried to fix that. ultimately it'll be scrapped for 3.0.

I changed it to 10 and the issue got worse, I ended up on page 5 of 2 trying to see the last post.

I changed it to 25 and it worked.

It seems what is going on is when you change that number, somewhere, something isn't calculating right. It seems to be calculating the pagejump based on whatever is hard coded into the script/system for posts per page and not looking at what the user has set.

Hard to describe, but I can show you if you'd like.

ahhh, ok. i wouldn't have even though to look there, just seen the problem in the code and have fixed it.

i'll release 2.0.10 around the middle of next week.

interesting. that's definitely due to neglect on my part. on both of my test setups avatars are stored above the ROOT. i will be more mindful of this in future

consider this coded.

might be cool to add the group posts to the forum posts for the statistics on forum home?

sabret00the 03-30-2007 05:44 PM

i appreciate all the suggestions thus far, keep them coming.

Exitilus 03-30-2007 06:27 PM

I didn't read through other suggestions. But I'm *sure* It's been mentioned. I know you don't want to use the forum datastore ... what about some sort of extra code & template edit that will show New Group posts under the New posts section when a user clicks it. (IE Two seperate tables .. one for forum, one for groups).

Merriweather 03-30-2007 09:06 PM

Other ideas:

- Use template replacement variables after install instead of manually editing all smilies etc (this would just be a change in the instructions for the end user).
- Do not allow group leaders to turn the group over to a user who is in a usergroup that does not have the option to lead groups.
- Allow polls in groups.
- Show page numbers/navigation under post title on group home page.
- Improve browse.php to show additional info such as public/private, group leader, number of members, number of posts.

The MOST requested features from my users is post review when posting and email notification of new group posts.
