Re: VPS Hosting Recommendation Needed

We don't use cPanel, we are a PLESK shop. However, midphase may be good - but with any provider that offers "unmetered" anything, you better read the use agreements close. Especially if the cost is cheap. You usually get what you pay for. How and what is measured on the "unmetered" service is important to you. I also noticed that they have CPU capping. Not a bad idea, but that may send up warnings if you get stuck on a highly populated shared server. I had a friend who was hosing with a well known company out of Florida. His site had very little traffic, but was bandwidth choked all of the time. It's because the server had over 50 sites on it, each needing at least 4% CPU. 4*50=200%!

Just my opinion...

You are both asking for Virtual Private Servers - which is shared virtual hosting by most companies definitions.

turnerrw - if you are really getting what you say, VPS probably isn't what you need. You probably need dedicated hosting. And there are cheap solutions out there. But going that direction...I wouldn't use cPanel.

upsadaz - 20GB disk? Hmm, eitehr it's a really huge site, or you have a lot of graphics. Also, you want to always look for companies that provide proactive monitoring of your mySQL or Postgres databases engines. These are usually what kill a server on high traffic sites. Not the actual traffic themselves.

Good Luck!

Re: Registered users I.P. Address

yes - but it's only as good as the information passed to you. It can be easily spoofed. Most folks who are sitting behind a corporate firewall or proxy may actually denote the IP as 192.168.x.x and I've seen 127.0.0.1 <- which is crap.

It's in the header and usually passed as HTTP_CLIENT_IP, however you have to look at HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR and REMOTE_ADDR to determine if you have some type of proxying going on.

Re: Problem with timezone

Although the assumption on how he logged in might be correct, I had similar problems when I began relying on one of the calendar programs. I found the problem as discussed in this article. I was able to prove this theory by hardcoding values until I had pinpointed the issue and functions involved.

Bottom line, there is minor inconsistency between the way xoops_getUserTimestamp and userTimeToServerTime work. Although both functions do slightly different things, xoops_getUserTimesatmp is the one with the issue.

Since making the suggested change, all time is correct regardless of user TZ and server TZ. BTW, the problem was most noticable with anonymous users and logged-in users.

Hope this helps, and if anyone believes this is way off base, share the correction!

Re: Looking for module for Car Bazaar or Real Estate

I'm going to need testers - but XOOPS @ IBDeeming! is working on XOOPShowcase. It is early ALPHA, and I am shaking it out here. Just click on the 'Showcase' menu option. You can see a users perspective. Believe it or not, it's a huge undertaking. I am trying to follow the standards of the Multiple Listing Service (which I know doesn't really exist outside the US) as it is our standard. It is based loosley on OpenRealty, Showcase for PHPNuke (which I wrote), some gallery type functions, etc. etc.

Check it out, feel free to leave interest here or here!

Re: I want To Create a Block with a content .....?

Quote:
I can create a block, but i thinking how can i make a Numbering.. and with what must i change "number" to be updated when new File is uplouded or Games,photos,news.... I Belive you understand me.. :)


To answer your question, this is actually pretty easy if you have an understanding of the tables that support a particular module you want to show. I have done this in my latest XoopStats public module release. And, it can be seen here in the Miscellaneous Stats section.

Here is some code to get you going - for example:

Let's say you are using mylinks module and you want to count out the number of categories and active links. You would do this:

// check if it's active
if ( $xoopsDB->getRowsNum$xoopsDB->queryF("select * from ".$xoopsDB->prefix("modules")." where dirname='mylinks' AND isactive='1'" ) ) > )
{
// count how many links are active
  
$links $xoopsDB->getRowsNum($xoopsDB->queryF("select * from ".$xoopsDB->prefix("mylinks_links") ) );

// count how many categories  
  
$cat $xoopsDB->getRowsNum($xoopsDB->queryF("select * from ".$xoopsDB->prefix("mylinks_cat") ) );
}


What's missing is your smarty vars or whatever you want to use to display. The main thing is, look at the tables associated with a given module you want to count. Understand what the tables are doing, and then query to your hearts content. You can then display anything about them you want.

Good Luck!

Re: Evaluate My site

Just my opinion...

I'm not a sk8'r, but what you are trying to do is universal - just pick your hobby.

Have you tried doing more than pics on the front page. For instance, I would think that anyone looking for a site like your site would be interested in what's going on, more than the gallery of pictures. I mean, the pictures are cool, but you want to have information that catches the users eye and holds them - makes them believe that you are an authority on your hobby.

Maybe try mixing the front page up with your gallery and the Spotlight block. Somthing that puts the news up front. Right now, I see that the news is mostly linking to other stuff - and it's slim on info. Maybe add news that talks about these events, reviews them.

maybe from the site name, you are more interested in just photos. Are there photos I can't see unless I'm registered? What is the advantage of me registering? You have to sell the idea a bit. Also, I would think that some folks might be worried about what happens if they register. Does their info get sold to otehr webmasters? Things like that.

Now, on looks, you're a skaters photo site - jazz it up! I've seen your type skating - and you are all flamboyant - show it! There are great themes out there that could really be cool and flashy.

Good Luck!
