Or leave the start page blank and create 2 custom blocks for the center, 1 only permed for anonymous, 1 permed for the registered users. This gives you a lot of flexibility about who see what. For example, the webmasters might want to see all of the blocks that everyone else sees.

Try changing the owner of all the files to the user that runs the PHP processes (apache on my RH 9 box). You can do this to the entire modules tree with:

chown -R apache:apache modules

Can forum notifications send the content of the post, not just a link

I understand that the intent is to drive traffic to the site, but it would be nice if the emailed notifications could contain the post contents, not just the title and a link to the contents. This would make the forums a more viable mail list replacement, where new topics and monitored topics could be send to the interested members, while allowing them to effectively "ignore" topics they are uninterested in.

I'm not suggesting changing the default behavior, just making this an options.

I have register_globals = Off, which is the only sane setting. So, I'm not worried about this, and don't think anyone else should be. Just check that register_globals is off and most of your security holes in PHP are closed.

This doesn't make you site invincible, but secure enough.

Firefox is the new name for Firebird, which is the browser only part of Mozilla, which came from Netscape, which came from . . .

Wow, that sounds like a human genealogy. No wonder everyone is confused

Yes, I've been following that topic and have most of it worked out. I just started playing with another option, to use a Linux/UNIX hard link of the MySQL files that comprise a table on disk. So far, results have been promising, but I'm still a little nervious about performing such trickery on a database server. It's also not an easy fix that someone else could perform through the web interface.

It would be more elegant to do this through XOOPS, because what I did has no visibility to the webmasters, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do

Sharing a table across multiple sites

I plan to install multiple, related XOOPS sites into a single DB. I'd like to be able to share certain tables (for Agenda-X and the Links module) to make the data available to all the sites. Here are the options I've considered:

- Removing the database prefix from all the code would work, but is a lot of effort and and would have to be re-done with every new release.
- Views. MySQL doesn't (yet) support views.
- The MySQL replication seems like overkill, but I never tried it.
- Writing a cron script to sync the seems like my best option, but I was wondering if anyone else has any ideas.

Re: Features for next version of Evennews

I think Evennews needs multiple newletters. So a user can select which newletters to sign up for. If the newletters could be permissioned by group that would be really cool (a webmaster newletter, for example). Instead of just subscribe/unsubscribe buttons, have it show a list of all available (to that group) newsletters with checkboxes.

Is it possible to add attachments (like a jpg or document) to a newletter mailing? If not, that will be something people will ask for eventually, I think.
