Codeblocks 32 bit (.exe installer) doesnt detect a compiler installed, i downloaded the version with a compiler and made a full install and even so nothing was found.

Also, tried to get the nightly builds in the forums but the forum gives me dead links, i cant even go to other forums.

    This is a known problem. Go to Settings -> Compiler -> Toolchain executables, click on the button with three dots and navigate to the compiler installation path (probably it is in a MinGW folder under C::B installation folder). Check if the names in Program Files tab match those found under MinGW/bin and change them if needed.

    Regarding the nightly, try this link

    If you have any doubt please ask in the forum

      Hi Miguel - i did what you suggested before you replied and even so CB wasnt able to find the compiler.

      Thank you for replying and for the link to the build too, i'm having problems with several sections of the forum who give me the error you can see in the pic.

        That error appears if you have a public IPv6 address, it is a bug in the SMF version used. Quoting from the forum:

        After a transition period of 23 years for IPv6, the ISPs in my region (Germany) only use DS-Lite for new (private) contracts.
        I just tried to use the search function with a DS-Lite -> database error
        Then tried to use the search function with a Dual-Stack -> worked after telling firefox network.dns.disableIPv6 = true
        Then tried to use the search function with an old Telekom 8!!MBit DSL with only IPv4 Support -> worked well.

          Miguel - i dont believe it's a bug with smf, i go to several forums that use SMF and i dont have this problem with them, perhaps a bug in the forum's server?

            The forum uses SMF 2.0.18, native support for IPv6 was added in 2.1.0. See this thread and specially this post in the thread.

            The other forums may be using the mod or the new version.

              Thanks for the links, it seems the discussion is pretty old.

              Regarding the other forums i go they use 2.0.18, here is one example and it works fine here:

    Depending on which compiler you have installed depends on the exact fix required in C::B. Unfortunately the fix/fixes have been available for a while now, but have not been incorporated into the C::B source code.
    More details and info on an unofficial installer that incorporates the Windows compiler detection changes is available on the following forum thread:

      Hi Andrew - a pity the fixes arent in the source code. Thank you for replying and for the link to the unofficial installer.

        Hi Felipe, Did my unofficial release work okay or not?

          Hi Andrew, it didnt work, it didnt find the compiler, i had to go with the standard 64 bit installer available. :/ - Anyway, thanks for caring and trying to fix the problem.

            Can you please let me know the following so I cna see what went wrong:
            a) the file name of the unofficial installer you used.
            b) The name and version of the compiler you have installed. Also if you could also supply the URL you downloaded it from so I can try the exact version as there are allot of different comilers out there.
            c) The directory that the compiler is installed in.
            d) What version of Windows you are using and type (x86 or x64).

              a - i dont remember what was the last version of the installer i used but i downloaded the newest one from 10/25/2021 and the problem still happens.

              b - i got the mingw from here https://osdn.net/projects/mingw/downloads/68260/mingw-get-setup.exe/

              c - C:\MingGW

              d - Win7 x64
