The big bug that was slowing the forums down has been squashed. Cut times by at least .1 seconds! Was a small templating thingy. All better, didnt do a terrible amount else besides more bug fixes and gaps, spent most of the day learning to 3d-model heh. (note the logo) 4/23/03 Lots of stuff done, mainly minor fixes but its the lack of minor bugs that make a program great isnt it? :-D Started: EBBEC=Echelon Bulletin Board Effects Code (bb code) Normal Posting (non-quick post) Icon Hunting/making(i.e. the horrible looking email button) Completed: Topic Numbering got messed up AGAIN New Board stats section Board stats section contains alot of vars which must be logged...done Sped Up: LOTS of extra queries removed-Duplication is still a problem working with active users...I intend to redo that entirely.

Fixed some bugs caused by EIN TYVM. Active users works When you post with a guest name, that name can no longer be a user display name or an actual name(unfortunatly the display name verification requires alot of file checking, might be removed....). Doing register-user now. 4/19/03 This could of gone on EBB but i decided to keep it here for 1 more night. Logging In (sessions and cookies) Logging out (sessions and cookies) perfected Board Display Posting new topics(that include posts-member and non-member) Zillions of fixes ZIllions of template updates It doesnt seem like much but it was easily 6 hours of work. 4/18/03 This could be one of the last days that the changelog is used on YaBB. But for now it still is: Sub Topics, boards <-HUGE *** UPDATE! Mapping...like the folders part were it showed ur location and such...complete Redid some architecture. 4/17/03 Finished topicindex Working on viewtopic working on view_member_sig working on view_member_info 4/15/03 Moving along in the topicindex page, finished get_topics(); Updated the method for opening files Fixed some wako file query counts Topic ordering method figured out 4/13/03 START Created Templates-HEader-footer-board-caregory[top/bottom]-copyright.html-Template.pm OO interface Created Debug.pm Info.pm Created Boardindex.pl page Created Settings.pl stuff Started both MySql and FlatFile database structure-works on boardindex Board-Category Structure Flatfile done Board-Category in MySql done Language structure done Simple Common.pl complete Folder.gif uploaded ######################################################################### ############################EBB CHANGELOG################################ ######################################################################### #$Id: Changelog.txt,v 1.5 2003/10/12 16:38:54 webrecka Exp $# #Note: Changelog is usually updated once a day, and builds are done once every other day, thats why it looks the way it does up there
