Personally, I don't like the idea of the username/password combo under the web tree. I would move them out.

You may want to check this TIP on moving the combo out of the web tree

Hi,

many thanks for your advice. It sounds encouraging.

I do have one point however - Gravies writes hereabout about problems updating when new linux versions come out - this sounds like a nightmare to me as I hope to have three or four sites on this server.
Has anyone updated Free BSD ok?

Thanks once more,

Alan


FreeBSD and Linux are two different Operating Systems (OS). Also if you are not using a customer-managed dedicated server, you don't need to worry about the OS updates - it is your host's responsibility. You can't even you want to.

[edit]
Even if you are using a dedicated server, usually the FreeBSD is pre-installed. Unless there is a major security update, you don't need to update your OS often. Actually, FreeBSD is very stable and it does not release as many updates as Linux does. Also check if your host is responsible for the upgrade or not. Even if you have to update yourself, check www.freebsd.org site on updating your kernel.

Hi, I am more of programmer than designer. and thats my experience of my two sites of XOOPS for communities of about 300 peoples (10% really active - submitters):
XOOPS is my first CMS to live with.
* Fluent instalation
* quite intuitive admin panel (backend) - thoug sometimes was time consuming to deal with access rights..
* smarty wasn't of big (or maybe even any) use for me..
* was time-consuming to find and make up the design we wanted
* I managed to hack some modules, but didn't manage to make up my own (even a blank one..).
** because there were not enough docs
** for me XOOPS OO seemed compicated to code according to it
* was hard time (well, more of "took a while") making up horizontal dynamic menus
* my XOOPS theme loads slower than mambo sites I know (well may be I overloaded it with js.. - for dynamic menu and and ability for modules to collapsehttp://somsa.ktusa.lt/xoops)


With so many drawbacks of XOOPS and so much virtue of Mamboo, I am very surprised of seeing you sticking around. I would have expected you actively helping other Mambo users instead of wasting your time here.

Every system has its strengths and weaknesses, one chooses the one that best fits his/her needs.

To me at least, Xoops' strength is the extensibility, it is second to none, not mentioning the cleanness of the core systems. I am not a programmer and I don't have any problems hacking and making my own customized modules. Simply taking a look how the XOOPS developers had coded their modules would yield a great deal in developing your own module.

Xoops is not perfect. If you are a user of Xoops, make sugegestions to make it better. Otherwise, don't use it and no one appreciates your bashfulness.

You way want to try the following:

file: include/common.php
before
session_start();

add
ini_set("url_rewriter.tags","");

Best method though is to set session.use_trans_sid off in php.ini, if you have access to it.

ini_set('session.use_trans_sid', 0);
usually does not work if your php is compiled as apache module

You would have to set your charset to "EUC-JP" in order to see the clock runing properly.

You may want to try the following modification:

<Script Language="JavaScript">
<!--
var 
spSTim11="   ";
function 
time01() {
var 
dayTim,jiTim,funTim,byoTim,goze;
dayTim=new Date();
jiTim=dayTim.getHours();
funTim=dayTim.getMinutes();
byoTim=dayTim.getSeconds();
if (
jiTim<12goze="AM";
else {
goze="PM";
jiTim=jiTim-12;
}
document.time01.timeform.value=spSTim11+jiTim+":"+funTim+":"+byoTim+" "+goze;
setTimeout("time01()",1000);
}
// End -->
</Script>

Like you, still waiting

As of banning msnbot, adding the following to robots.txt will stop MSN from crawling your site.

User-agent: msnbot
Disallow: /

Your webiste link has www, but your mainfile does not have www included.

Xoops 2.7.3 treats www.yoursite and yoursite as two different sites in terms of sessions. End result - you will have to log in twice.

adding www to your mainfile.php should solve the problem
// XOOPS Virtual Path (URL)
// Virtual path to your main XOOPS directory WITHOUT trailing slash
define('XOOPS_URL', 'http://www.gkr-karate.com');

Or keep current settings but advertise your website link without www, so people will go directly to the URL without www and login.

You may have to add
ini_set("url_rewriter.tags","");
before
session_start();
in include/common.php, if your php is compiled as Apache module.

The best way as ackbarr suggested is to set
session.use_trans_sid off in php.ini, if you can of course.
