xoops vs phpnuke/postnuke/etc

I've been using/messing with/making some modules for XOOPS for a few weeks now, and love it. I had messed around with phpnuke/postnuke some, and truely feel XOOPS is a much nicer solution.

It seems that a decent amount of people agree with me on this, but why are there SO many more phpnuke users? There really doesn't seem to be any 'killer apps' or more themes..or more modules for phpnuke...

But I look at xoops.org, and see maybe 15-30 guests or members online. you look at phpnuke.org and there are hundreds if not thousands?

what can we do to convince more people that XOOPS is the way to go? or does anyone have any theory as to why so many people use phpnuke over xoops? is it just a legacy type thing?

Idd good idea. But, in normal cases you don't have to chance users details . I personal surf with Mozilla and IE because some sites really look UGLY in Mozilla, then I need IE. But, I've put that function on off, because it's almost every time suggesting the wrong things. But ok , just me thinking...

This was probably hanging around for a long time, it's not completely a XOOPS bug, but some "joint problem":
I use Mozilla 1.1a, which has a password manager, to keep track of usernames and passwords, somehow like IE does. Now, I made it remember my name for my XOOPS site.
The problem is: if I don't watch enough, when I'm changing the details of some user, it replaces the username in the fields with MY name, and saves it without a complaint from xoops. Thus, I have 2 users with my name and can't login anymore (luckily, I have some direct db access on my provider's host). As far as I can tell, XOOPS checks, when a new user registers, that the login isn't already used. I think it should be the case also when modifying a user.

Regards,

go to the windows directory and search for the file php.ini
edit this and search global

you go to see GLOBAL = OFF change to GLOBAL = on
save the file. stop the apache, start and TRY is you problem are solved.


What version of php- apache- MySQL are you running ?

Err... mmm... ok, let's forget what I said, then.. I'm still with RC 3.0.4 (I thought the 3.0.5 only included the security fix, which I didn't need, and I was too lazy to upgrade... )

My mistake... (but ... ok, whatever )

Which version of XOOPS are you using? I see the following codes in xoopspolllog.php of RC3.0.5.

function hasVoted($poll_id, $ip, $user_id=NULL){
  $db =& Database::getInstance();
  $sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ".$db->prefix("xoopspoll_log")." 
WHERE poll_id=".intval($poll_id)." AND";
  if ( !empty($user_id) ) {
    $sql .= " user_id=".intval($user_id);
  } else {
    $sql .= " ip='".$ip."'";
  }
  list($count) = $db->fetchRow($db->query($sql));
  if ( $count > 0 ) {
    return true;
  }
  return false;
}

I think the polls are based on username, if the voter is logged in. For anonymous users, we use IP.

IMHO, nope... I think there is some logic to correct, here:
here is the code from XoopsPollLog:
$sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ".$db->prefix("xoopspoll_log")." WHERE poll_id=".$poll_id." AND (ip='".$ip."'";
        if ( !empty($user_id) ) {
            $sql .= " OR user_id=".$user_id."";
        }
        $sql .= ")";
        list($count) = $db->fetchRow($db->query($sql));
        if ( $count > 0 ) {
            return true;

The request is thus, for a logged user:
AND ( IP = ... OR UID = ... ) ==> has voted
in other words, when I have 2 users behind the same firewall, the first is able to vote, but for the second, the IP is the same, the OR condition is true and thus he can't vote.

The correct logic should be:
UID not null ==> use it whatever the ip is.
UID null ==> use the ip whichever it is (this will prevent two anonymous from behind the same firewall, but prevents also a logged user from logging out and voting again)

The corrected code should looks like:
$sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ".$db->prefix("xoopspoll_log")." WHERE poll_id=".$poll_id." AND ";
        if ( !empty($user_id) ) {
            $sql .= " user_id=".$user_id;
        } else {
            $sql .= "ip='".$ip."'";
        }

- show the list of voting users with their vote (at least for admin, but some polls could be completely public)
