But not done often
Wrong. Many large bot nets consist of captured Linux servers.
And more consist of captured windows boxes. You can even hack freebsd boxes. But often its not the fault of the os, but of the admin. And no os helps agains a bad admin, so this discussion is not only completely off topic but also totally pointless. No one, not even you, cares about which OS is more secure. The main difference between windows and linux is that its a lot easier to gain admin rights on windows than on linux. To exploit it from outside none of both is really vulnerable. Software is but not the OS (if we talk about the "big" os'es).

You are not able to talk about an OS without some dumbass trying to show why his os decision is so much better. Really, no one cares about which OS you use.

But to get back to the topic, im always struggling a bit with the desktop environment. As mentioned before im using cinnamon in the moment. Im happy with it, but not to happy :D Thought about trying the new xfce version but my system has problems with the testing repos of archlinux... And when we talk about distributions, we often talk about desktops. So which one do you prefer?

Plugins / [Plugin] Re: CountLikes

Feel free to do a pull request, otherwise i will have a look at it this afternoon.
 Thank you for providing your changes :).
If I remember  it correctly, the view of the liked posts needs some improvement. I had to apply a complete template, perhaps this could be solved better?! Because in general its the same like the view posts stuff, only different query and other texts. A more general function for that would be helpful maybe. I dont like duplex code :D.

EDIT: Updated git repo

Pick another distro or build it on your own.
So, basically, end users who don't want to dig into tech will have to defeat and accept the unwelcome "feature". Non-systemd distributions with a certain appeal to non-programmers are rare at best.
Endusers who aren't technically interested, don't have a problem with systemd. For them its even better, because they have one central place to search for logs, control services...
For all those people who dont want that, because of the dependencies and i dont know, they should support projects like devuan.
https://devuan.org

I like systemd, but I understand the problem, and I understand people who dont want it. But instead of leaving the ship. better go and change something. Even if you only donate some money, it shows that people are interested in it, and if there are enough, something will change.

I never understand the hate against systemd. Works very well for me, and if you dont want to use it, dont use it. Pick another distro or build it on your own. If some software depends on systemd, dont use it. If there are enough people who think like you, there will be alternatives.

Yeah Pacman is aaiight, I also like APT, well most of the Distro's I have used have been Debian based so used APT. Arch is nice and "bare bones", and makes me feel all geeky.
Definetly geeky but worth it :D I think i needed 4 hours to install, but learned a lot. On a fresh installed Debian i wasn't able to install cinnamon, because of many dependency conflicts, so I switched to arch and I'm very happy with it :D

Archived fixes / Re: 'ViewRemote' not found or invalid function name
« on February 20th, 2015, 01:35 PM »
Got it on my localhost and on an online server. But really can't reproduce it, it just happens sometimes. But if no one else ever got this error, perhaps it's my own fault?!

Shouldn't these topics be marked as read from the beginning, anyway..?

(I hate these. That's one feature I'd never have personally added to Wedge...)
I don't see any sense in this feature. It only makes troubles when i have to remove those "topics" because a mod forgot to make the right tick...

Archived fixes / Incompatible with newer PHP Versions
« on February 2nd, 2015, 09:38 PM »
I noticed a month ago that wedge doesnt work properly with newer php versions than 5.5+.
I wasnt able to activate more than 1 plugin (I think there were some problems with array_diff?!) so if you have the same problem, probably downgrading your php does the job.

Bug reports / [Plugin] users_online_today some bugs
« on January 12th, 2015, 05:28 PM »
Found some bugs in this plugin.

1.
Code: (OnlineToday.php) [Select]
case '7d':
$earliest_type = time() - 604800;
break;

I think that should be "earliest_time".

2. The plugin uses systemtime (time(), strtotime()) therefore there's no need to substract the timezone settings. This error might not appear for some, but they just have those settings set to 0.

Untested solution:
Code: (OnlineToday.php) [Select]
switch ($settings['uot_type'])
{
default:
$settings['uot_type'] = 'today'; // This is deliberate, falling through to 'today' because that's what to use in the event of an invalid type being used.
case 'today':
$earliest_time = strtotime('today');
break;
case '24h':
$earliest_time = time() - 86400;
break;
case '7d':
$earliest_time = time() - 604800;
break;
}
Dont want to fork wedge/plugins, otherwise i would open up a pull request. Im not sure if last_login uses forum time or system time. But however, something is wrong with this plugin.
EDIT:
'last_login' => time()
Changed my solution.

Features / No overwrite of files
« on January 6th, 2015, 07:27 PM »
Overwriting the files everytime is a bit bad if you want to set file permissions on unix without acl. How about editing the files instead of overwriting them every time?! Everytime i enable a plugin, the permissions of Settings.php change. Same for /gz/*.

EDIT: Just tried it locally, for me file_put_contents doesnt overwrite the file, if its already there. But why the hell does it remote :hmm:.


EDIT2: Ignore this, and feel free to remove this topic. Its full of rubbish, im sorry for that...
EDIT3: This really happens, but probably only to Settings.php because wedge first creates that temp file and later removes Settings.php and renames temp file to Settings.php.

Story behind that: i put latest wedge on a server of a friend, but it behaves really mysterious. Im not able to enable more than one plugin, and also it doesnt show the right button when first activated. I really dont understand why this happens. Already tried to reinstall wedge, but doesnt help. This is really strange and maybe not a problem with wedge itself, but a bad configuration...
