Boards don't get their PURLs created properly

I believe Nao's already aware of this one, but when creating a board, its pretty URL isn't generated properly, causing all sorts of odd breakage when creating new boards.

Yes. I worked on it this morning but was only able to fix a few bugs. The issue is that createBoard generates a dummy URL and then transmits it to modifyBoard. Untouched.
To be complete, there is an identical issue with membergroups. It sets -1,0 by default and never the request into account. Interestingly I had the same problem with Wedge.org when running SMF and thought it was a problem with the noisen codebase. Now I doubt it.
Tomorrow I hope I'll fix it. So many bugs left to look into... But I'll have much more time available.

*nods* In our case, though, the generated URL should include domains and the ones I was seeing didn't include that...

The membergroups UI hasn't been updated to cope with the new boards stuff, so it's still using the old UI and logic. I suspect I'm going to end up mirroring the board->groups logic in group->boards (but using the boards instead of groups if that makes sense)

So many bugs, but we'll get there. I'd link the appropriate strip I have in mind but it's not online at present and I don't know if I have an image copy on my HD anywhere.
