Am I stupid, or what

Trying to install version 2. but the "XOOPS Physical Path" is always seen as wrong when I am fairly confident its right (on Solaris).

Running Checkenv.php doesn't give me the "Physical Path". SHould it?

Is there a script or function somewhere that can check me on this?

Devs, couldn't this be dealt with a bit better in the install script?

Thanks

anybody having luck with this mod? so far all i have is the app in a iframe. kinda sucks with the way the page scrolls.

the next part is grabbing the cookie info and placing it in the description field so we know who books the room. but authentication is still ip based, and totally not integrated with xoops.

edits to bookings are still limited to the IP of the creating machine, not user...

but even if you consider serious security control depending on the site it doesn't even matter if you keep the login sotred in a cookie..
but we need to remember there are some servers and countries where the use of cookies isn't welcome...
So far if you need a real security control it'd be better to have a site running in a https server...

Actually, it is just extra sessions in the database that stick around, and how long before the session cookie on your client expires. Only dangerousif you have hundreds of users, but much less annoying than having my session time out because I got a phone call interrupting a post. It does however confuse the hell out of the Who's Online block...

It just happened again this morning. I started a post on this site, got interrupted and when I hit submit...

Whack!!!

My public site has timeout set at 1 hour, but my test site has it set for 1 day (because I hate logging in, and nobody lse uses it.)

I would like to see a "never log me out" checkbox added to the login block as well.

On a different note: It would be nice if, upon replying in the forum, the default cursor position was in the message box

Yes I have been having that same problem,and when I switched from phpbb to xoops, the amount of forum posts dropped dramatically cause people had to keep relogging in. For alot of people it would be great to have this option.

I wonder if there will ever be just like a small checkbox somone can make so if the user wants to store their pw/login info on the computer they can and stay logged in.

the session time is a dangerous setting to set higher: it keeps the session alive (and the server can't use that setting for that period of time, therefore being busier) all the while you are gone and not using it. I'd recommend keeping it at 15 minutes.

In the System Admin / Preferences / General Preferences dialog, there is a session timeout parameter that defaults to 15 minutes in the X2 install. You can extend this timeout to a more reasonable amount of time say 2 hours or all day if you want.

In XOOPS 1.3.8 it was specified in seconds, and so ya had ta do a little math!!!

Higher volume sites like this one, have a shorter session expiration time to improve performance.

only the name via cookie.
is the only that can store in XOOPS (in user preferences.)

For the passw for security reason, need introduce manually.

hi,

Is there a way to get XOOPS to remember logins? everytime I go back to my site or to this one I have to relogin... Perhaps it is my browser... Just wondering though...
