Since when was UNION used in display?

Which makes that the heart because the liver's further down IIRC.
I'm a software, not a wetware, guru :P

No, that easter egg was removed in Wedge. Don't know about here though :P

Well, I'm no biologist, but I thought the thing behind the 'heart' was the stomach...?

That's the beauty of it, because more and more add-ons don't do file edits, add-ons just need to be enabled rather than complex chains of scary looking instructions...

I still don't think it's about speed, it's more about not running out of memory.

Not sure, to be honest.

Well, the old last parameter was for stating keys; that's not needed in MySQL as far as I know if the table is set up properly, so I don't see why not off-hand.
The reason is less for pure performance and more memory: displaying 20 posts at a time is potentially heavyweight if you have to hold them all in memory at once, so they iterate that way to avoid shunting that data about in memory, and on the side, less processing effort.
What I find curious is that print-page does not do that.

I'm tempted to say that INSERT/REPLACE should not be extended in this way but have the parameter list and rows passed to a hook instead to be manipulated (there are no raw INSERTs carried out in the source, they are all done by wesql::insert, and I'd suggest we leave it that way - it is cleaner to do that by not having add-on authors having to deal with the queries' parameterisation)
Also, prepareDisplayContext is pretty unique, everywhere else just processes rows into an array of some form. getBoardIndex is atypical, though, but it's still ultimately running a query and pulling rows into an array.

You know the solution to that, right? :lol:

It might help to know what calls are placed in case there's something wrong (and also SVN rev)

I can find a solution for most things but not that, I'm afraid...

There's really no rush, I'm on my iPad now until Sunday due to family stuff, so unlikely to sit down in front of a desktop before then.

Well, it's all interrelated, so I'd love to see both, though I'm conscious that I won't be able to really try it out yet.
