the tag, you use the character, instead of the html tag... use this: ? ( & # 149 ; ) without the spaces!...

the character you use is in Windows format, so when the page is displayed in another format than charset=ISO-8859-1", it may appear in a strange way, even show the character you use instead of the dot!

Now I understood what you meant!

I was trying to find out where my mistake is in the HTML code. You are talking about the dot, between the links!!! Well, if I remember correctly (and this is not an excuse), I got that from vBulletin itself. Somewhere in this software, there was this character and I copied the code. Or maybe not, I am not sure.

Promise, that will be removed in the next release. LoL

hum, yeah, i know that some special characters are always hardcoded in vB... remember that parts of that code are from the old hardcoded version, and was forgotten in the realm of php3..

Perhaps it is possible to make a new warning rule when you warn a user.
It is me already happen that I warn a user, but I had no good rule for its warning

What you mean by "rule"? Do you mean a warning type? These, you create them yourself, from the admincp.

If you mean to allow the creation of a warning type, while you are warning a user, no, this cannot be done. You do not want the moderators to add rules at will, this is something the admin should do.

As I said, it will be corrected in the next release, not something that difficult. The only problem is that the twins are at home for the weekend, so I sincerely doubt I'll have time for doing any coding work.

Rgds and thanks for the hints.

Nexialys,

Could I ask you a couple of questions:

1. I tried replacing some text in a file which is in admincp with a phrase I created and it does not show up. How does a php program understand which phrases it's going to use and loads them? Is there something I can read about this issue?

2. Regarding those dots, where can I find some details about what I need to replace that dot with, in order to show properly?

Tnx and rgds

1. :

In the top of every file you will find a line like the following:

PHP Code:

// #################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
$phrasegroups = array('calendar', 'cppermission'); 


This will load the phrasegroups used in this script (on top of some default groups).

Hello,

Nice to see you're working on it sv1cec. I'm still using Zero Tolerance 1.5 hack (with some minor modifications), but will give this a look soon.

We were using Ikonboard before and we've made some midifications to that one too. Here are some suggestions for options:

-Increase posting flood with warningpoints. 1 warningpoint gives 1^0 30 seconds extra, 2 gives 2^2 *30 etc. My experience is that this is quite effective (a warned user is often in a balistic mood, that's fine and understandable, but there are limits to this. Things quickly aggrevate more than good for anyone).
-Increase searchflood.
-Increase PM flood.
-Remove post edit function (effective for backpeddling trolls stirring the pot).
-Remove poll creation.
-Prevent editing signature.
-Block editing usertitle.

You could say: take away a kids toy (so he can't throw it into someones face) until he has calmed down.
