(Not sure where to put this. Can't seem to create a new thread, so... )
Just did a fresh install of AWC. Everything seems to be working just fine except for the emoticons. They're all there, where the archive put them. but most of them don't display.
I've tried deleting one from the list of emoticons and re-entering it. That doesn't work at all!
Anybody had this problem, know how it is to be fixed? (I see it works just fine here.)

Why can't you start a new thread ?
What errors are you getting, what happens ?
I will look into the emoticons, as of now the only problem with them are Internet Explorer and the FCKeditor, they do not work correctly together.
When you say "They're all there, where the archive put them. but most of them don't display" Do you mean at the bottom of the posts where a user can selecte them to use, or do you mean in the posts themselves - after the user submitted a post ? If "some" are being displayed and not others, thats odd, maybe a slow server or something, really cant answer that.
As with adding new emoticons in the AdminCP, what happens, what errors ?

Creating a new thread isn't option that's presented. I looked and looked. Of course, I'm still new to AWC, so it could be that I'm not looking in the right place too. 
While we're on the subject of use: Where's the setting that lets you reverse the order of the messages displayed newest to oldest, rather than the default oldest to newest?

Ah... Well, I'm using FF, and I purposely didn't install FCKeditor (the default is just fine, thanks!) so...

All the image files are in the default (emoticon) directory. The default emoticon setup is still there in AdminCP. But most of the images don't display in the editor, the message, or on the setup screen. I'm getting ye'ol' missing image box.
Now, I can open all the images in an image viewer and they look just fine, so...

Nothing. No errors, no image displayed either. (Image is in the default emoticon directory.) In this case I'm not even getting the missing image box. Just a blank.

You don't have this button ?
Sorry, as of now there is no options to re-sort threads or posts. You can add it to the forum todo list if you want.
Can you post (or PM me) a link to your wiki so i can see whats going on first hand ? A user name to access the AdminCP would be helpful also.

Nope. That is not a button available to me on your forum. (It is on mine though.)

I'll have to do that. We have run a forum for some time. We're nota new forum. We're migrating from SMF (which I hate!) to your AWC software to integrate with a new Mediwiki install. We're already getting requests for this sort of thing functionality (and others).
Oh! User error. Just got this while I was writing this post:
- Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 0 in /XXXX/wiki/includes/SpecialAWCforum.php on line 210
I don't get the error, but she is. I had her log out and log back in to see if it went away. It didn't. Also, this error just appeared for her. The last few times she's been on the forum she didn't recieve the error.
OTOH, it doesn't seem to be effecting anything.
While we're on the subject, I get the following error on your forum after I login:
- Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /home/awc/public_html/wiki/extensions/awc/forums/skins/skin_thread.php on line 394
It doesn't seem to effect anything either, though it might be what's preventing me from starting new threads.

If you still have your old SMF database, i can try and write a script which will copy your forums, threads and post over to the AWC Extension. Thats what i did here for my old vBulletin and also was toying around with a converter for phpBB.
That error you posted there has to do with PM's, i will look into it and try and work the fix into the 2.4.1 update. A 'Notice' "error" is not abig deal, just poor programing. If you remove the following code form the SpecialAWCforum.php file, it will go away. error_reporting(E_ALL | E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE | E_NOTICE); # testing... That code makes php display any little problem, most server are not that strict so messages like the one you post would have never been seen, some developers turn this on to disciplin ourselves (and some of use forget to turn it off when our scrips go pubilc  ).
As with the errors here, thanks, im sure theres a few more lurking around 
Theres a PM waiting for you at your wiki's forum.

Can you use this form to post ?
http://wiki.anotherwebcom.com/Special:AWCforum/post/todo_new_t/id36
That will create a new thread in the "testing" forum here.
Not sure what the deal is with that, ive just tested with a "normal member" account and everything works fine. Do you by chance have any fire-fox Add-ons which might be playing games with this problem ?
Ohh... and just to let you know (or one of your members know) some BB code will work in the forum and if theres certon tags which they want that are not working, just let me know and ill try and add them.

Oh cool!
Yes please.  And yes, we're still using the SMF forum for now. I've got to change the default skin to one we can work Project Wonderful Ads into. I mean, I can do it with the skin I made for that side of the site, but they'd all end up at the bottom, and nobody wants to pay for an ad at the bottom of a web page -- even though it's where the navigation stuff is.

Well Jen, who owns drak.net where the site is hosted, is very strict. She's very good and very helpful and we love her to death, but she doesn't even allow posting to blog sites via ScribeFire for fear of security problems. There's a line between strict and paranoid. I'm not sure where it is though.

Yup. I get the edit box and everything just fine.

Umm... Well they shouldn't -- not that that means anything.
And if they were, wouldn't they be playing games with my version of the forum too?

Thanks!
But one of the reasons we installed your software is to get rid of BB Code. When we're finished with the conversion, users will only have to remember two different forms of markup: html and Mediawiki --- and even those two cross over.
And then there are the advantages you built into your forum that allows imbedding of wiki pages.
So it's all upside as far as we're concerned. And I think the BB Code you're already supporting will be more than ample for those few who forget (and who didn't use the menu buttons :P).

Update
|
Okay. I've:
- Reinstalled the emoticons. Didn't help.
- I went through all the emoticons in the archive with the gimp to make sure none of them were corrupted. That didn't help either.
- I found another (not very cool) archive of emoticons and added a couple of them to the list of available emoticons. Works just fine.
So I'm out of ideas here. Can you pack up just the emoticons so I can download the ones you're using here and try that?
Thanks!
(Oh, BTW, I now have a "start a new thread" button. =sigh= Strange!)

Actually... I lied.
I was installing more of those other emoticons and they aren't displaying correctly either!

sorry, when i used the word 'strict' i was using it in coding lingo. Not important

I almost forgot. Have another question.
How do I manage topics? I have one that I set the wrong posting permissions on, but I can't find any controls for changing permissions on an existing forum topic.
i moved this to Special:AWCforum/st/id783 so other people can see also.
I will look farther into this emotions problem and replay to your PM.

Seeing same issue.....
|
With version 2.4.1 and MediaWiki 1.15.0 and PHP 5.2.9, I'm unable to get the default emoticons to show. The error we're seeing is in the attached screen shot.
Insight into this would be helpful. Thanks.
