Does my post have an Android icon because I posted it from my phone? That's cool.

Anyway, I'd grab Kays' mod anytime. If there is an issue with a mod, the author should fix it and shouldn't say "Oh but that's fixed in the paid version, gimme $45 and those issues'll be gone."

Sorry for not staying on topic, but I just have to comment on two replies :P

Late bloomer? ;) Actually VB is not a bad language to get into to start with, and at least it has some ideas about type safety, PHP's 'just keep on truckin'' approach is actually not clever for beginners - as I found with C#, having to conform to structure is actually a better way of getting to understand a language than it is for scripts to work but with inconsistent and unpredictable results because of some hidden safety net.

Also, review posted with some follow up comments based on this thread. I do not expect this to end well.
C# is one of the most fun languages I've met, php comes first. Even though C# is a bit tough in the beginning I picked it up fairly quick.

I'm fairly sure I made the first version of SMG within 5 months and that was 5 years ago.
impressive! I didn't start coding until I was 13, and even then, I just dabbled with some VB. Yes, 3.0. I didn't get into web development until 17.
Looks like we have something in common :P
I started 'coding' (not sure it can be called that) when I was 11 I believe, creating scripts for the Windows CMD prompt. Then I started with VB, dunno which version. Got sunk into web development when I was 12 I believe.

Anyways, yeah I got Lab to read this thread and man he's pissed at me lol.

But even so... $35 for that? I think even $20 is a bit steep for it.
I'm not really in a position to judge other people's prices but I wouldn't really mind the 35$ if the mod was coded properly and worked as advertised (which I can see it doesn't from your observations).
Even then I would doubt it's worth $45, when basically the same can be done by hacking Subs.php for free. And I know it is for non-advanced users, but hacking Subs.php isn't difficult. I'd give it $20 at max.

Back to the original point, that is really really sloppy. He should've posted it in the team boards over at SMF to give it a review.
Not saying that we could filter all issues (my coding style is not perfect, it is far from perfect in some areas), but a big deal could be filtered out.

Three years for that little lines is a very long time. I believe my awfully coded FXTracker comes close, it was developed in about half a year.

I was the only one trying to revive the MOTM[1] and TOTM[2] rewards, but shortly after that it died again since I can't handle and decide these things on my own and the rest of the team just had no interest it seems. SHOTM has been remade into Support Helper of the Moment, not of the Month.

There are no plans for 3.0 or 2.2 as of yet.
 1. Mod Of The Month, reward used to be given to an intuitive mod every mod
 2. Theme Of The Month, reward used to be given to an intuitive theme every month

It's not that 'the errors disappear', it's that they disappeared, period...

I was simply emptying the cache. Which needed emptying after I'd just updated the website to rev 1942 (so, it has 10 days worth of new features, including the new language caching feature, which will hopefully help Pete test it on a wider scale.)

You just happened to refresh the page in the 2 minutes between finishing the upload and me finishing emptying all caches. ;)
Heh, glad it's nothing too serious lol.

:edit: Please report if you find the error shows up again, though.
I will :)

PS: so, it takes a bug report to get you to post eh? :lol:
Nah, I just randomly visited Wedge again. I should start posting but when on my phone I'm too lazy to log in lol.

Glad it's fixed :)

I was browsing a topic on this site and got these errors:

Code: [Select]
Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 0 in /wedge/Sources/Subs-BBC.php on line 1133

Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 0 in /wedge/Sources/Subs-BBC.php on line 1133

Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 0 in /wedge/Sources/Subs-BBC.php on line 1133

...

Screenshot attached. After reloading the page the errors disappear.

EDIT: The same just happened when opening my PMs here.
