I heavily modified WWWThreads PHP and I would like to get some opinions on it which I just made available over the past few days.

Mythic Entertainment Boards :

If you would like to get a Message Board, with all the features of my modified WWWThreads, just go to :

http://www.togrc.com/boards_howtocreate.php

and follow the instructions. You can get your own Message Boards, free of charge, within a few minutes -- all automatically.

I'm really looking for input, I spent a lot on time working on the changes.

What version of w3t did you use to base your free forums on? I trust it was the free demo version otherwise your operation is illegal.

I am offering the message boards for people, mainly 'guilds' for on-line games that could not afford any Message Boards Hosting nor to buy a complete product set.

The license says :

This license for WWWThreads Pro allows you to have an unlimited number
of instances of the software for a single domain. If you plan on
running WWWThreads under multiple domains or subdomains then you must by
additional licenses for each domain or subdomain.

Basically, I am running only 1 set of the Message Boards, linked between 2 directories. It's under the same domain, in fact, every message boards have the same URL with a modified # as one of its setting... I modified a lot the boards to allow this, I spent over 4 months doing this, and I do not give the source, nor distribute it, nor ask any money.

It's my way to give a chance for people who are still a student.

As you can see, it's really something I do for the community, and I even leave the link to WWWThreads publically known if they want to buy their own license for WWWThreads and to have access to the source code. I even didn't modify the FAQ which gives more info about WWWThreads.

So, i'm helping the poor people while doing publicity for WWWThreads, how can this be illegal?

I also did the same thing using UBB and everything was fine.

Gotcha. I hadn't realised this was an online only thing and that it all lived on your machine. In that case it is indeed a fantastic and laudable achievement. Well done.

Impressive! []/w3timages/icons/wink.gif[/]
Two questions:
1. Are you using one database per forum or are they all set into the same one?
2. What is that star thing by the names? A rating system?

Seems like a great combination of w3t and vbulletin style! Impressed.

Thanks.

1. They are all set into the same one with a lot of modifications for optimal access.

2. Yup a rating system, it's definable by the Administrator if they want to have it or not, and how many posts. A lot is configurable by the Administrator...

I see you have incorporated several of my hacks into your boards. (Glad you like them.)
How's about returning the compliment and making some of your hacks available to the rest of us. You've got some great stuff there. []/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/]

how did you do recieve icons for amount of posts that you have made. the stars?

after i just made an board and played around with it. some of those options should be included into the main distribution of wwwthreads. the control panel is awesome. being able to customize that fully for all those boards is great. i think that being able to do it to just one board is fantastic, but you made it possible every who has a board to do it. sick, purly awesome.
