User Registration and Spam

Hello! It's been a minute :wink: I hope this finds everyone happy and healthy. Either this PHPbb installation is hacked, or sometime within the past 3-6 months one of the admins here made a poor decision to open user registration to the general public with nothing more than user-verified email. As a...

Re: A new home for modified?

I'm going to upgrade all software and start the transfer by locking the forums to new posts, probably some time this weekend.

Re: A new home for modified?

Thank you Mathieu. Dan & TJ have been in touch over email and are currently discussing it between them. If you'd like to be involved, please do email the both of them :)

A new home for modified?

Hi. I've been running modified on my web server since 2010. I've controlled domain name modified.in since then too. I would like to stop doing both of these things within the next year, but hopefully sooner. I would be happy to help someone move modified to a new host. This someone should also take ...

Re: Bug Reports

I've been really bad about looking at these forums recently. Sorry about that. What you're reporting is indeed a bug, but it doesn't have anything to do with the forums, per se; it's my server, and this happens across all the sites that I host where the server will randomly bork form submissions by ...

Footbloggers Sites & The Logo

https://modified.in/ For reference, here's my pitch: Each player gets their own Wordpress installation(s) to do with what they will. Create multiple blogs. Create reference sites. https://modified.in/dizzy/ is my blog … there are 4 other blogs so far. If you want to create a store, I can enable Wooc...

Upgrade to phpBB 3.2

I just upgraded phpBB from 3.2.RC2 that we were rocking to the stable release of 3.2.0. I was forcing us to run on Release Candidate version software because it was the first version that supported php7 and I didn't want to have to support an older version of php on my server. It was kinda risky, bu...

Re: Fanzine: Vlog!

I'm really, really digging these vlogs Ken. Thanks. An idea: consider publishing the series under The Symposium name; a "podcast" doesn't have to be exclusively audio, and since you are attempting to engage directly with the community, asking questions and following up on them, I think it still fits...

I am in the running to become your IFPA Membership Director. You should vote for me :) I'll do the good things for the people. Seriously: if elected, I promise to raise the profile of the IFPA and become more involved in the administration of a new footbag renaissance. I'm looking to bring the board...

Re: Allan's Footblog



Testing. Youtube embeds should work again with a pretty fucking huge caveat: embeds in old posts are broken (at the moment); you can fix them by editing the post and moving the code to a new line... it sucks, I know. I'm still working on it.

Re: Limit system load setting turned on

Awesome, thanks! So the whole of modified is supported on this amount of memory, RAM, etc. Good to know! The whole of modified, and about 12 other relatively low traffic sites that are almost all Wordpress-based. I've not looked at the stats in months, but I serve approximately 3000-4000 unique hit...

Re: Limit system load setting turned on

Cool, thanks for the tech update. Out of curiosity, what are the specs of your server? I have been reading a bit about servers, and am still trying to wrap my head around them. Sorry.

Limit system load setting turned on

Limit system load: If the system’s 1-minute load average exceeds this value the board will automatically go offline. A value of 1.0 equals ~100% utilisation of one processor. This only functions on UNIX based servers and where this information is accessible. The value here resets itself to 0 if php...

Re: Offline time due to upgrades, different theme coming

It's certainly easier to navigate a traditional forum template instead of the grid format. Interesting; I've heard more positive feedback about the grid format than negative. Can you explain what you mean by "easier?" Just that it's "easier" to scan straight up and down that across? I think this is...

Apparently there's an issue with video embeds. I'm aware of it and working on it.

Re: Allan's Footblog

Havent posted in a while. I'm still around. Last night and tonight I spent on finally moving the forums from their own dedicated server, to another one that I run, but it'll share resources with several other websites; it's a beefier server than the other, and the forums don't place a lot of burden ...
