Importing into Wedge / Re: Database permissions
« on January 27th, 2014, 11:26 PM »
That's the problem that was discussed; apparently, the importer doesn't try to 'impersonate' each database setting. You can fix it by giving your Wedge database user, some extra rights on the SMF database.
Thorsten, what do you think should be done about this..?

Oh... :-/
So, err... Are you sure you cleaned up your folders before doing that?
Please reupload everything from scratch. Should work then.
(It was probably a bad idea of mine to commit this all two hours before going to bed... -_-)

Archived fixes / Re: select has visibility:hidden on create new topic
« on January 27th, 2014, 11:20 PM »
- No page refresh should be needed. This is because filenames change whenever you change one of these options (compression and obfuscation). If you switch between minified/unminified, the filename isn't changed, but what does it matter. ;)
- Enable compressed JS/CSS *should* work on other servers... It's just that you'll need to write your own handlers for them. As simple as that... Well, as complicated as that. But if you're not using Apache, chances are, you know what you're doing.
- The text below your avatar seems to overlap on Opera 18 default, as mentioned in another topic. By the time Wedge goes stable, though, all (important) browsers will support everything properly. If you need support right now, just enable 'web platform' in about:flags.

To test the new installer. Remove all folders except for assets and core. Upload /assets/icons/media. Upload /install. Remove Settings.php. run index.php (NOT install/install.php!) Done.
Also, upload the /core/app/OriginalFiles.php file.
I'm sorry, I forgot to add it to the repo. I'd indeed add it to the index, but forgot to hit F5 to refresh my file list, and thus it wasn't added to the changeset.
This should now work for everyone...

Empty file for me.
Anyway... The new installer is up! It works for me, but I fear it's a major rewrite and it *absolutely* needs some skilled testers, otherwise I'll never get it to work... :P

- PM notifications were shown in the wrong order. I'm not sure why nobody ever reported that. Well, I reported it to myself. I'm a good tester. If a little slow. (PersonalMessage.php)

- The install script no longer needs to be moved to the forum's root. Wedge will automatically run it from its install/ folder if it detects that the Settings.php file is missing (which has always been 'the' way to force a Wedge reinstall anyway.)
- The install script can no longer be run by someone else than the admin. (index.php, install.php)
- 'Empty' folders such as media, attachments, gz and plugins are now automatically created by Wedge at install time. This allows me to avoid enforcing write access to them. Making life easier for everyone. Plus, it's faster to upload because there are less round trips. (index.php, OriginalFiles.php, install.php)
- Note: assets/avatars doesn't seem to need to be writable. I think some very old versions might have used the avatar folders to store uploaded avatars, when they're now either in the attachments folder, or in a custom folder that we know nothing about at install time. So, I took the liberty to remove it from the list. So, now, only the assets/smileys folder needs to be writable, and it's only if you want to upload new smiley sets by HTTP... Which is currently broken.
- Known issue: install files won't delete themselves after install, you'll have to remove the folder manually. I'll fix that later. Generally speaking, this new installer needs some testing. I successfully installed a test forum with it, but I'd never say it's 100% safe because of that. If you have problems with installing, get the previous commit from GitHub and you should be fine.

You shouldn't laugh at them for that... Anyone can get into a mess like that, even us. Well, you can laugh at them, but don't express it online. :P
Still, I'd like to know what this large patch 'fixes'... Isn't there a changelog somewhere..?

Yep... That's not specific to github, but I see what you mean. ;)
I have this feeling that Wedge is best distributed over at github.com, because it's easy to download everything you need from a familiar interface. I'll try to build a 'download page' on wedge.org, but it'll be only a list of links to the actual github pages.
So, there's a SMF 2.0.7 out and no one told me..? Security fixes? Am I not supposed to integrate it into Wedge then..?! (I don't care about SMF 2.1, but Wedge is based on the 2.0 line, so it needs these.)

Archived fixes / Re: Opera is now messing up
« on January 27th, 2014, 04:43 PM »
Lulz.
Well, it still means I have to do something to account for Opera 18... Unless no one cares, of course. (I personally love Opera, but... Well, Opera <14, m'kay? I won't profess any further love for them until they get their act together and restore the Tab Panel feature that was the main reason I kept using it for so long.)

« on January 27th, 2014, 04:26 PM »No, you can't, the Selectbox doesn't appear when JQuery is missing, I had to go to the database and change it there.
Another solution would be to make the CDN selectbox not dependent on JQuery.
I'd rather not set visibility:hidden instead of that. And that would mean a FOUC -- which to mean is heresy!
I'm still trying to evaluate the best way to do it.
In the meantime, I'm nearing completion of my installer rewrite. It doesn't change anything to you technically, but internally, it's pretty nice:
- it now creates all of your empty folders for you, meaning: (1) folder permissions will no longer be an issue, and (2) Wedge will now ship with only three folders: /assets (which you can usually skip after you install it once), /install (which you SHOULD skip after you install it once), and /core (which will have most of the changes between versions.)
- it installs directly from within install/, meaning you just need to upload all of the files to the server, point your browser to index.php, and you don't have to do anything else. Advantages: (1) noobs have one less daunting task to do, (2) I can actually release the software through GitHub, saving me a lot of time. :)

Features / Re: Multiple Recycling Bins for different Categories/Boards?
« on January 27th, 2014, 04:17 PM »
Oh, yes...
Then, I *guess* I would also have to add a 'can_soft_delete' permission, so that you can safely remove the permission to delete a post.
I can imagine I'll have lots of fun trying to get every single message parsing to actually return an error message... Maybe I should actually build this into parse_bbc's options...

Importing into Wedge / Re: Database permissions
« on January 27th, 2014, 04:16 PM »
Are you sure you entered the right paths..? Because to me, it sounds like you tried to import a Wedge forum into another Wedge forum. (Or worse, into a SMF forum... :P)
