A little update...
I've been playing around with the code..it seems the issue of random threads being loaded has to dowith the hook named "vRewrite Redirects" in global_start.
I disabled it and it works like a champ
I'm off to 2nd job and will play around with the code to see if I can help witha solution :)

I am still having problems witht he username -- go back a few posts for more details:)

Thank you bchawla for looking into the issues, i really want to install this, but i always read of and get errors with this extension. Hey Immortal, hope can get the last few things fixed :) This would be REAL GREAT :D

What type of errors?

Immortal-
A moderator brought to my attention that there is sitill a merge bug.
If you use inline merging it works great, however, if you try and merge to a thread (by entering the URL) it gives an error.
I've been trying to find a hook to take care of the 'conversion' but have been unlucky.


Outstanding bugs I can think of:
1) Merge issue (inline works okay)
2) FIXED - Incorrect member.php linking
3) Markforums - still produces an error (I think I know of a fix)
4) FIXED - Directly clicking on a THREAD from index.php produces incorrect thread linking (traced to URL rewriting).
5) TEMP FIXED those running vbGallery (and possibily other scripts which use /dir within forums dir) will have problems - cause of this is headinclude's baseurl
I'll try and see what I can do (though I doubt it will be much!)
thanks! :)

EDIT: #5 added, fixed #2

Hm, darn thought I fixed that :(

Thanks for the list :)

Hey Immortal

I was thinking about about a work around for the IE bug (attachment timeouts). Why are making newthread.php & newpost.php SEO friendly? Spider bots cant access these parts of the site anyways, so it seems logical to exclude them. By not including this, I think you should automatically resolve the issue.
What do you think?

They can't actually post, but they still can see the URL. So I thought it would make sense just to rewrite them. But, that's not the attachment problems with the IE. It's just because it's in a different directory, and IE doesn't recognize base href for that section of vB.

That's wha tI mean - if you were to remove the newpost.php redirection, it would be in the standard directory and thus no problems :)

I can try, didn't even think about that. I'll test on it shortly :) (after Lunch)

Are you talking to me? I did that for my forums and it works great :) (No stupid IE buds :))


@ everyone @
I found the fix for the incorrect user linking (links to incorrect user), I will PM immortal the details and have him verify :)
