Need to get that in the core rather than relying on a (seemingly buggy) mod.

It did have a point, but a badly defined one that needed the best brought out of it.

You missed my point.

I pay several times more than you and have less transfer... The extra space isn't that important but I don't have odd CPU caps...

Yes, I found that to be a problem more than once.

Yeah, this isn't based on my code, but the other one that's since been tweaked and improved (and unlike the version on sm.org, it actually works with our current release!)

I don't remember, no, but it sounds like there's something random breaking it. Does it occur on an otherwise fresh install?

Yeah, we did after we spent time figuring out the performance kinks in it. It is, truth be told, especially good for blog boards but it's actually useful even in forum boards (far more so than the prev/next links SMF comes with)

This version should, if I remember right, also reflag the topic as having new items if you'd already read the old one.

It might be. It might be a theme bug. It might be all kinds of things.

In other words, one of the few nice features in WordPress ended up in Wedge!

I have yet to see anyone come up with something that performs even modestly well without it being absolutely crap; invariably it's done by finding subjects in other topics that have matching words to the current topic's subject.

With tags it might be made to be more relevant but until computers can be made to handle semantic meaning without pre-programming (and remember, even the Watson machine that could handle playing Jeopardy was pre-programmed with contextual analysis, and it was a supercomputer, rather than a small webhost), it really is going to either be crap or worse.

Don't worry, we will explain all the magic in due course.

@Dragooon, Nao: Way way back in the mists of time, when it was being discussed about my being a teamie, Karl actually recommended I go into the beta testers area rather than support because while even then (June 09) it was clear I had the skills, they'd noticed I had a bit of a temper because I care about what I do, and that it might not be ideal for me being on the support team...

@Dismal: First up, that's invalid HTML (center is not part of XHTML as far as I remember, and the br tag isn't like that)

Try:
Code: [Select]
<p style="color:white; text-align:center;">Welcome to iApple Cafe.<br />Your Resources on Apple Products, Jailbreaking & Unlocking.</p>

I can see the appeal of this for some sites, honestly though this strikes me as being more an add-on rather than a core feature.
