I'm guessing that you do realize that taking over the forum also includes taking over the website as well.
Yeah, shouldn't be hard to find an alternative or a workaround. Given that there has been no action on it for five years, it's not surprising there are some issues.The Green Beast Contact Form - V v3 | Build: B3.20081118.01 works fine, and it appears there's a new version available for it v3 | Build: B3.20090130.01. I chose it for it's security implementations.
The Simplicity of Upload script also works fine, but it does appear that there is some security issues and here with it, I just found out, and it looks like the developer no longer offers that script at his website. Eliminating that should be no problem.
There's no PHP in that file. It appears to be Stu Nicholls' original menu example file. Haven't seen one of his for ages. I've coded more drop menus than I really care to remember since I last looked at Stu's sites. He does get some good ideas though.I've attached a zip file with the index.html file in it so you can see how I used the php include.
Ah. I didn't expect to do it within 2 or 3 weeks. I was getting the impression that 2 or 3 months might be more what you were thinking. 2 or 3 weeks would be pushing it for me.Either way is fine for me. If you feel comfortable moving the site within the next 2 or 3 of weeks, that's fine. If not, no problem. I'm in no rush. I've just lost a lot of interest in this site and RT3.
I was talking about the Lightbox used on the website. Not the forums. The website doesn't use a database for anything. It used to back when I was running the login script for downloads, but when the server got updated to the newer version of PHP it broke that script. That's why I had to move the 1,000+ files to MediaFire and change the 1,000+ links.Gumboots wrote: ↑Sun Sep 30, 2018 8:37 am Lightbox I can work with. If I did want to change things, I'd just run a MySQL query on the db table and sort them all at once. I took at look at the source code for one of my posts, and there's a heck of a lot of inline CSS for each inline attachment (inline CSS is one of my pet hates). But it's workable for now and I'm not worried. I can always run copies on a test site to test any proposed changes.
Yea, I like Stu's work.

As I said, there's no rush. I don't have a problem paying for another year. Tale your time.
Let me gather it all up and I'll PM you.
Ah, that one. I know what you mean now. Well, same deal applies, except I'd run a find/replace on the html files instead of running a database query. Or figure out some other way if, for some reason, that wasn't feasible. It's not an issue at the moment anyway.Hawk wrote: ↑Sun Sep 30, 2018 9:23 amI was talking about the Lightbox used on the website. Not the forums. The website doesn't use a database for anything.

Yes, that is a PHP include. However, the HTML file in that zip has this code instead:Yea, I like Stu's work.
It sounds like you opened it in a browser and viewed the source code as opposed to opening it in Notepad. You won't see the php stuff in the source code.This is what I was talking about.

Now that I think about it a little more, it might be better to wait for 2 or 3 months before you do anything. That would benefit me as well, for reasons I won't bother you with.
