Yes, using sockets should be slightly faster than TCP/IP.

Those aren't per-host declarations, they're for the entire server. You don't declare .php files for each virtual host, for example.

Add it to the main httpd.conf or similar.

So what happens in the error log for that?

Well, crap. Though it worked for me >_>

SMF supported multiple questions but one answer per question, and it supported bbc parsing on questions. Nice to see that it's not just me that thought it needed improvement, heh.

The show_when field makes sense, and ordering by id will give priority to admin, global moderator, then moderator, then all the post count groups >_> May not be ideal, which is why I suggested an explicit ordering in the table.

SMF's already does, though I managed to miss that out when reimplementing this, but fortunately that's an easy change to make.

Also note the screenshot in the first post ;)

OK, so it does need some work then, I'll look at it a bit later on.

Because I'm tired and feel like crap and can't really process all the consequences of it right now.

Well, we can stop the submission of further drafts, sure, but we can still have a draft being sent just around the same time as post is sent, and still have a race condition there anyway.
3205
Nope, because you have two separate events going on, and sometimes one of those happens to occur later than the other.

The Pub / Re: The Cookie Law (in the UK at least)
« on June 5th, 2012, 12:47 PM »
I'll say this again: Wedge does not have to care at all about DNT.

It is irrelevant to Wedge out of the box whether DNT is enabled or not. DNT is to prevent information being shared across multiple first-party sites. Wedge is not designed to be multi-first-party. The only time that is even potentially an issue is if someone manages to mash up multiple sites with a single-sign-on controlled by a single cookie, a vastly complicated and unreliable process at the very best of times. Wedge out of the box does not offer this (and is unlikely to ever do so), thus from my perspective, Wedge neither has no requirement or place in doing anything for DNT.

Does a DNT setting override a user's acceptance for cookies? If the cookies are not multiple-first-party cookies, then no, it does not override it. DNT is for tracking across multiple sites.

The thing is, DNT is designed by people who actually understand how the internet works, and it is designed with user choice, and reasonable technical implementation in mind.

Plugins / Re: Optional hooks
« on June 5th, 2012, 12:40 PM »
Way ahead of you, when you declare the hook, add the optional parameter:

Code: [Select]
<function point="hookname" function="myfunction" filename="$plugindir/File" optional="yes" />

Registers the hook but doesn't enforce it as being absolutely required.
3208
No, it's the same race condition.
3209
What we have here is a race condition, yay.

It's not so much the select, it's what you're getting and how you're getting it and when you do what.
