I am devoting most of today to coding away on the boinc forum code... I have a list of things I want to accomplish today.

As I make these changes, I'm testing them out on my forum... http://boinctest.axpr.net/ ...feel free to find breakages and post about them there. :-)

Ok.

Sounds kinda kinky.

Sounds kinda kinky.

Only if he 'breaks' them. Often it simply involves making them feel inadequate.

Stewie: So, is there any tread left on the tires? Or at this point would it be like throwing a hot dog down a hallway?

Okay, status update....

I've disabled all HTML tags now (on the test forum, should be here soon enough). At long last, what you type in is what you'll see.

I've also enabled wiki linking. If you want to link to something on Paul's Boinc Wiki, all you'll have to do is put that something inside [['s. An exampe would be something like this:

[[SETI@Home]]

...which, if it were enabled here... would become a link to SETI@Home on the wiki.

Now that those two things are done, I'm revamping the back-end code. I'm taking a more object-oriented approach to the forums using PHP classes. One major benefit is a reduced database server load - I've cut thread display queries from what they are now to three queries for those who aren't logged in, and four for those that are. Currently we're looking at two queries for a logged in user just to make sure they're a logged in user and get their preferences, one query for the thread information, one query for the forum information, and two queries per post in the thread. IMHO, that's icky. We're using a relational database system for a reason. :-)

They're broken alright...

I get the same message, for all fora on the message level.

For questions about Boinc look in the BOINC-Wiki

Yeah, I'm attempting to incorporate some of the new code I've written in to the existing pages to see how compatible it might be. It's a work-in-progress. :-)

So you brake it yourself?
What do you need us for? ;)

Did you add BOINC Synergy to your Teams List Yet Rob?

Rob told me he intends to join BOINC SYNERGY! That SHOUT feature really floats his boat!
