  1. wouldn't call it php but it was pretty bad. I manage a website for some friends, and their website is the base and order form of their business. I did daily backups on my server and i wasn't being very secure about it. Someone with a grudge found out about their site and my backups. They hacked my backups at around 1 in the morning, to ensure I wouldn't back up anytime soon, and then deleted their entire site.

    I was saved because I had a backup of the site from about 2 weeks back, and not much had really changed.
  2. The tutorial isn't meant to give you the script and say, "Here. Copy and Paste." It is a rough overview to teach you something. Don't copy and paste, you won't learn. I used the same tutorial, it taught me alot, but the same exact stuff was missing. taking what it did teach me, using the manual, and doing a bit of error checking I managed to get it working. After that I had learnt alot, and I have since expanded on that tutorial so much that it seems like it is professional. I use the tutorial as a base for all of my projects, and add to it the features I need for what the project calls for.

  3. The user-submitted tutorial section is down currently. i think that we are about to get that up, as well as there should be people adding stuff to the actual tutorial library. The script library isn't functioning correctly neither, but we are working on it. I have been Approving a few codes in the PHP Code Library. I can't really speak for forum activity since I don't know what is happening in every forum members personal lives.

     

    Also there has been some work done to the sites, as well as Apache Freaks, Linux Forum, and MySQL Freaks getting a forum version upgrade.

  4. Hello. I am having trouble adding a domain name. I have Qmail installed on CentOS. I access from the Web Control Panel. When I tried to add a domain name, I get this message:

    [code]Unable to chdir to vpopmail/domains/domain directory[/code]

    i have disabled SELINUX in my config file, but it still dosn't work. Anyone know anything on this?
  5. Look at the top right hand cornor of PHPFreaks here. See that little drop down box that says 'Our Network'? Well if you click that box and select one of the options in it, it acts like a link and redirects you to one of the sites on The Web Freaks network (PHPFreaks, Linux Forum, Apache Freaks, MySQL Freaks, and AJAX Freaks). That is what a link bar is. Something at the top of your page, normally at the right, that lets you link to other sites that are a part of your network.
  6. Hello. I am building a new site, and I need some help. I need to install a forum on it, and I don't have the time to design one. Besides why should I when there are hundreds out there? Anyways, the help I need is picking one. I want one that is easy to template, intergrade into a website, is in PHP, uses a MySQL database, and is easy to manage and customize myself. I thought about PHPBB, but I want your opinions. All suggestions welcome, as long as the forum software is free :-D I am broke, so I need the free stuff.
  7. Yes it should be changed soon enough. I have been talking to Ryan about it, the designer of the logo, and he is working on making a trademark logo for AJAX. Currenly one does not exist to our knowledge, so we hope to set the standard. Such as php having the <? and Linux having the tiny peguine thingy. We will update you on what we find out on that part. Any ideas, just post them here as we are drawing blanks on what we should make.

  8. Exactly. What I like about it is the ability to refresh things on a page without having to reload the entire page...such as if you pick a state it lists all of the cities in that state without refreshing the page. It is the next big boom! Even Microsoft and phpBB are using it...and if you know if they are using it then it is a big thing since they are the last to pick up everything in hopes to follow the most popular fav instead of paving the way for it...that was mean. Didn't mean to make fun of phpBB or Microsoft....wait yes i did.

  9. Talking to my host about the PHPSESSID. As to my other question...it didn't work. What I want is for the url:

     

    http://www.netgeekz.net/news.php?article=1

     

    To be changed to

     

    http://www.netgeekz.net/news/1/

     

    However I don't want to do that manually myself with each news post. I want every url to automatically be done. And example:

     

    http://www.netgeekz.net/news.php?article=1 Changes to http://www.netgeekz.net/news/1/ Automatically

     

    http://www.netgeekz.net/news.php?article=2 Changes to

    http://www.netgeekz.net/news/2/ Automatically

     

    And so on and so forth.

  10. Well sometimes my session_start(); appeneds that PHPSESSID84890489374 to the end of my urls. I want mod_rewrite to hide that. I don't want them rewrote to anything. Is there a automatic way to do that or do I have to do each one manually?

     

    Also there are urls that are like:

     

    http://www.netgeekz.net/news/view_news.php...+Message+System

     

    I want to hide that end stuff. Make it go

    http://www.netgeekz.net/news/archive/30/

     

    Anyway to do that? Also I would like for it to do it automatically because I add news and don't feel like editing anything to expand to the new news articel.

     

    Thanks.

  11. Okay I need to run a normal URL into a full url rewrite. Any suggestions? An example would be:

     

    http://www.netgeekz.net/PHPSESSION?48942ed2032

    to a url without that PHPSESSION?4803247ekwje (whatever the numbers were)

     

    However it also does it with my dirs like so:

    http://www.netgeekz.net/directory/PHPSESSION?849375dkjfew83

     

    Of course my directories all have an index.php file, so that is not displayed if you navigate straight to the dir and no file. So any ideas?

     

    Also can you post why it is done like your example and a great tutorial on learning more about mod_rewrite?
