My requests:

1) Ability to preview private messages.

2) Option to save a copy of a sent private message.

3) A relatively easy way of getting rid of the threaded/nested display modes, so that only the flat display mode is available. Having to edit a few files is ok, as long as the procedure is documented.

4) Integrate public and private forums by using a common access method. I.e., each forum's access is determined by who can access them and what rights they have.

5) Addition of a switchable "view" privilege for forums. A user with only the "view" privilege can see the name/description of the forum on the main forum page, but cannot "get into" the forum. A user without the "view" privilege for a forum will not see the forum at all.

6) Add a reply-only privilege for forums.

What about 1500000? Or 1572864 (1.5 x 1024 x 1024)?

foreach ($HTTP_POST_VARS as $k => $v) {
$
$k $v;
}


isn't really a good idea, is it? It's manually "registering" all form input as variables, and can result in surprises if you neglect to otherwise initialize a variable.

A safer approach is to explicitly initialize all variables that are actually used:

$var1 = $HTTP_POST_VARS['var1'];
$var2 = $HTTP_POST_VARS['var2'];
...

It depends on the intent.

Personally, I think it's confusing to be redirected "back" unexpectedly. If the last page was a form submission, the redirection attempts to resubmit the form.

If the only purpose of the index.html file is to hide the directory contents from someone who tries to view them, I think the blank page is more straightforward.

Thanks

I generally use a zero-length index.html file for that purpose. Is there a particular reason for using the Javascript, which I guess is equivalent to the browser's Back button?

Should the file templates_c/index.html be deleted too?

It contains the single line:

<script>history.go(-1);</script>

Through experimentation, I found that setting a user's level to 5 doesn't make him an administrator. To do that, I created a new group "Administrators", with all privileges checked, and added the user to that group.

The user that was created during installation automatically has all privileges, though.

I installed BigApache for this purpose. It includes Apache, PHP and MySQL, as well as Perl and some other stuff.

Sorry for not replying earlier. I thought I had enabled email notification of replies, but I guess not.

Thanks for the reply.

I'd like to find out more about this, if anyone knows about it.

For example, was it done this way (not using levels 2,3,4) to allow for future options?

Do any of the addon modules make use of this attribute, and make assumptions about values other than 0, 1 and 5?

Since no one has replied, I'll try rephrasing my question.

Does anyone have any information on how the database column xoops_users.level is used?
