I've been using the "Word Press" module for a year or so and it's been great for me -http://living-abomination.stufftoread.com

Search for it, i think there's an updated version.

Has anyone used site5 (http://www.site5.com) for hosting? I haven't been able to find much. We're also looking at dreamhost - they look good but a little expensive. Thanks

Sorry if you took that wrong, I know everyone here works hard - I'm sure everything is being worked on. I'm also sure that a lot of the volunteers would love to have someone help them with the dirty work.

I'm applying to Google Summer of Code, but as a Java programmer (as much as i would love to help XOOPS out, PHP really isn't my strong language). But I thought I'd post it here in the hopes that someone with some control over the XOOPS project might want to take advantage of it. Maybe they could get someone to fix the module repository

Maybe. But in the short term, i'm sure there are things the XOOPS developers would like to be able to put a dedicated, full time programmer or two ontop of.

I know what you mean - like right now there's 124 guests and 4 members online. But, it's hard to use that to measure how XOOPS itself is doing, it could be that nobody is posting because they aren't having many problems.

That being said, I agree, it can be tough to get help on here, but I just looked at your posts, and it's not an easy "off the top of the head" type problem so not too many people will know how to solve it.

I'm not the best with html and redirects, but i know people who are, and if you don't get some good help in the next few days PM me and I'll see what I can do.

ugh. yeah dude - "DNB" list? It just gets sillier as the years go by doesn't it?

Use .htaccess files (if your host allows), strong passwords, the XOOPS protector module, and a good backup strategy Pretty much everything else is up to your host.

Oh, and relax. I've known a lot of hackers (I started out as a phreak back in the day) - the real hackers, the ones who know what they're doing, the ones you really have to watch - are the quiet ones.

These are just goofballs.

I saw a post a while back about XOOPS getting google summer of code devs. Apparently last year XOOPS missed the deadline.

Well, it's that time of the year again

I think having some summer of code devs could really help to energize this project, and maybe tackle any issues/bugs that have been lingering. Well, it's that time of the year again

Re: Change some language in modules?

Sure - the sub-entries are in the module's 'language/*whateverlanguage*/modinfo.php', you can edit them there.

For example, i have the news module too - and say i wanna change "Archive" to "Garbage", i would edit modules/news/language/english/modinfo.php and change:

Quote:
define('_MI_NEWS_SMNAME2','Archive');


to

Quote:
define('_MI_NEWS_SMNAME2','Garbage');


*You might have to update the module and empty your cache and templates_c directories, or maybe even turn the "update templates" option in General Settings on for a little bit to get it to show up.

To do it with an .htaccess file, use this code:

Quote:
Redirect /olddirectory/oldfile.htmlhttp://yoursite.com/newdirectory/newfile.html


(changing the directories and url of course)

To do it with html inside your error page, paste this into the metatags section (between the <head> and </head> tags):

Quote:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh"
CONTENT="5; URL=html-redirect.html">


In the html code, the 'CONTENT' variable is the number of seconds to delay before redirecting.
