Quote:LPH Feb 15th 2:39 pmQuote:AWC Feb 15th 5:33 pmQuote:LPH Feb 15th 10:51 am2. Your info tag on front page looks like the announcement is "stuck" to the top of the listing. How is this done?
Its the "luck of the draw". It just happens that the last thread to be updated/posted in happens to be an announcement. That will change position when other threads have "activity" in them.
Maybe I should turn this into a feature request 
I like the idea of having an announcement sitting in that first position on the front page. Is that possible in version 2.5.x?
Ill check it out and see what can be done.
As for your missing text, can you check the following file:
\extensions\awc\forums\functions\admin\admin_lang_funk.php
and see if there is a comma at the end of line number 1264
$sql = "SELECT lang_id,
lang_txt_forum_raw,
lang_txt_thread_raw,
lang_txt_admin_raw,
lang_txt_mem_raw,
lang_txt_tag_raw,
lang_txt_search_raw,
lang_txt_errormsg_raw <<==
lang_txt_redirects_raw
FROM $awc_f_langs ";
Dont think there is.
Can you change that to
$sql = "SELECT lang_id,
lang_txt_forum_raw,
lang_txt_thread_raw,
lang_txt_admin_raw,
lang_txt_mem_raw,
lang_txt_tag_raw,
lang_txt_search_raw,
lang_txt_errormsg_raw,
lang_txt_redirects_raw
FROM $awc_f_langs ";
and then run the following url and see if it fixs your missing text.
Special:AWCforum/admin/awc_lang/do_raw_lang
Its crazy and frustrating how one simple little comma has cause so much problems (im sure as a chemist you can relate  ) !
And how about editing here, was it just a goof, or is there a problem ?

OK, after some fussing, I added two commas: one comma after lang_txt_errormsg_raw and a second after lang_txt_redirects_raw. This didn't fix the problem until I ran the update script again. Now all of the messages show properly

Humm... the second comma is odd, you should have received an error message because of that.
Getting there though, lol... so sorry for these problems.
Simple mistakes like this should not happen.
Which version of the update-script did you run, 2.5.0 or 2.5.1 ?

I don't need the awcs_forum_convert_latin function...
I export the mysql databases from, the forum and replace the wrong diplayed charakters in the posts with the right characters and import it in the database and now it displayed all ok and by new posts the proplem with the charaters is not ... so all is ok by me ...

After uploading the files (was using 2.4.2 with 1.13.0)
the browser is trying to take me to:
http://mysite.com/wiki/awc_urladmin/forum_update
Even if I want to go to
http://mysite.com/wiki/
It just redirects me to
/awc_urladmin/forum_update
which does not exists.
Had to use this link to get to the forum update page
/index.php?title=Speciális:AWCforum/admin/forum_update
Pushed the button "update to 2.5.1" did not do anything on google chrome, but it worked on mozilla.
Options from the languages file went missing so had to us this link to imprort a proper language file
Speciális:AWCforum/admin/awc_lang/display_lang_options
Importing a language pack did not work, so had to use the "Update language pack" (around the middle)
The language pack I uploaded was:
http://downloads.anotherwebcom.com/wiki/updates/export_en_2009_02_09__19_22_48.txt
Now I could see the menus and options, but the forums character set is bad.
Tried to set to UTF-8 in the general optoins, or to Latin-1 but it did not solved the problem.
The posts are in latin-1 (based on the general settings but never really UTF-8), the forum and category names are in something more worst.
That is the point where i give it up now

thanks for all the feed back, Tester. Its a big help.
Did you try changing the define('awcs_forum_convert_latin', false); to true in the config.php file ?
That should fix the character display in the forums and also in the forum tag.

If you didn't try that, please do and change your "UTF-8 in the general optoins" to what ever you had it set at when you had 2.4.2 running.
You should not have to change any chr-set in the admincp, the 'awcs_forum_convert_latin' in the config file is the only change which needs to be made.

define('awcs_forum_convert_latin', false);
Set to true and char set problem solved, but as you pointed out in the PM, the edit box is missing somehow.
Anyway, I am the one who should thank you for your work and help, so thank you

Your welcome.
This forum extension would not have all the options that it does with out the help of you guys (and gals). And when a person has problems and give as much detail (like you did) its a big help.
Anyway...
Yes, i see this and it might have something to do with the extra buttons you PM me about, can you post or PM a link to these buttons.
Also, can you try and re-upload ALL of the forum files from this link.
http://downloads.anotherwebcom.com/wiki/updates/awc_forum_beta_2.5.rar
You do not need to run the update-script, just upload the files and see if the posting box appears.
If might have something todo with an extension you have running or something, your the only person which has this problem, now.

Tester, got your forum working, but its still not right and i do not know what the problem is, also sent you a PM from your forum and the SERVER ERROR is back, will fix that in a bit.
Note to self - added to bottom of box() function in Tester file:
$tplt->add_tplts(array("'post_box'", ), true);

LOL. Google Chrome isn't the best browser. I'm just using it to try it out and lots of scripts don't run on it. I certainly didn't want to imply something was wrong with your update script simply because of Google Chrome.  I was just providing more information ...

yea... after you posted about this i test out g-chrome, another member was having problems with a beta IE (have no desire to test out any MS stuff period  )...
Not to sound rude, but things like that im not too worried about.
If a person it playing around and testing out things like that im sure they will figure it out and run a "proven" browser.
I would think the g-chrome problem is how the browser deals with javascript, thats whats being used to "disable" the update button after its clicked.

Acouple more tweaks along with the poll_tag.
http://downloads.anotherwebcom.com/wiki/updates/awc_forum_beta_2.5.rar
Alittle info about the skin templates.
If you already have 2.5.1 running, theres no need to run the update script, just over-write all the files.
The language update is still messed up.
