so yeah i got bored and decided to make some forum software, the layout has been done really quick so its not gonna look that good lol. some pages are not up yet but the main forum parts are , posting topics/polls and replying. I'm working onto at this very moment and just thought I'd share it. anyways let me know what you think and what you'd like to see on there.

-as an unregistered user, clicking 'add vote' sends me off to an "Incorrect Page".

 

-maybe also it'd be better to not even allow user to type in message unless they're logged in - divert them to a 'you need to be logged in' page BEFORE they are presented with the post form. some would get a bit miffed if they spend ages crafting a post only to realise they forgot to log in.

 

- the pagination on your 'Poll' thread (page with the list of topics) doesnt work. clicking 1 says the topic doesnt exist. clicking 2 gives me "Incorrect Page"

 

otherwise, things look promising :)

there is a url screwing up your page.

Hey I forgot to block html in the poll's need to process votes just to let people know I will get on that soon.

Be careful relying solely on cookies to display screen information. While I was not able to gain control of the site, I was able to appear as though I were logged in as "13th_Star" or any other username I wish, for that matter. Modifying a local cookie is an easy adjustment, and when it gives me additional info on the page, it can get dangerous. Looks like you've done pretty well so far with security, though.
