  • I do have a custom theme, but I was able to replicate the problem with the default theme. I literally did nothing but install Vanilla and then drop my data in instead of the install data. I seem to have caused the problem to stop happening at a co…
  • Sorry to keep bumping my own post, but I really need help here. Here's what I've done: Installed Apache on a different server Set up pretty Urls with Mod Rewrite Install Vanilla Test the install Imported my data Deleted all plugins The problem sti…
  • I isolated the problem. This happens whenever I have a plugin that goes through and "prettifies" things. HtmLawed, HtmlPurifier and Emoticons all cause the same behavior. Without those, the conversations work fine. I'm not sure what they're doin…
  • I turned off URL rewriting and that made no difference in the behavior. I have another instance of Vanilla running on a different server and it does not exhibit this behavior, but it is only a test installation with two users. I still suspect that…
  • In Chrome, I just did the following test: 1) Started a Conversation 2) Entered myself (Lykaon) as the only recipient 3) Hit 'Start Conversation' 4) Conversation has the following people in the conversation: * Lykaon * Gomer1188 * Chuck.Sarah Okay.…
  • Users have reported it in IE, Firefox and Chrome. I've only personally tested it in Chrome. The form itself never shows more users than what I type. But when the message is actually displayed, seemingly random users are in the conversation. To m…
  • I've updated to the latest version of Vanilla and this is still happening. Today, a conversation with 2 users somehow managed to add almost all of the other users in the forums, causing emails to go out to nearly all of my forum users. I have turne…
  • You might be able to do this via modification of the theme you're using (or by making your own theme).
  • The main RSS is at: http://YOUR-DOMAIN/discussions/feed.rss Obviously, fill in 'YOUR-DOMAIN' with well... your domain.
  • I've seen this happen before with Quotes and it was related to the the way in which it tried to request the quoted text via ajax. It was going to an invalid URL because I had rewrite URLs turned off and it was trying to request from a friendly URL.…
  • @Raize: I separate announcements from discussions via my theme. I got the idea and example code from the Joie theme in the addons section of the site. It's in the views part of the theme that defines that discussions list. http://vanillaforums.or…
  • Assuming you're speaking of Vanilla 2... Use the "Messages" feature. You can put boxes in the side panel that way. You can choose how you want them to appear and they accept HTML. Check out my forums for an example. The links to the other areas…
  • @styrk: I wrote an add-on (not in the addon repository here yet) that looks up the Roles of users. The same concept could conceivably be used to look up this information and use it in the way you want to. My addon exists to print the users's role …
  • @cdavid: Vanilla 2 has this feature built-in. Which version of Vanilla are you using?
  • @leogopal: The default feature does not have any sort of duration associated with it. You'd have to go in and disable the messages when you no longer wanted people to see them. One nice feature, however, is that you can set them up to be user-dism…
  • @leogopal: I've done this by using the built-in "Messages" feature. From your Dashboard, you can add messages and specify where you'd like them to go. You can put HTML in these messages and it will be rendered properly. I'm currently using just s…
  • Prior to 2.0.6, I had these same problems when not using RewriteUrls. If you haven't already, try upgrading to 2.0.6.
  • @Davidis: Sounds like you need some sort of wysiwyg or markup editor. There are a few floating around in the add-ons that use various wysiwyg javascript editors. I'm also working on an html mark-up add-on that will insert the necessary html for u…
  • @rak: I didn't try that. Ultimately I disabled the plugin because it was too unstable for my tastes. I've started working on my own using the MarkItUp javascript editor. It's not WYSIWYG, but it's relatively simple and seems to work well. I hope…
  • I concur. Vanilla 1 allowed all sorts of craziness in the usernames. I have users with spaces, dashes, periods, parentheses. So far the only weird thing is that the @ notation doesn't work when it runs into these characters. Not a huge deal real…
  • I would think you would be able to do it with CSS like anything else. It looks like that box is in #Popup div.Content. I'm just guessing there, but I think it's a good place to start. CSS is always trial and error with me. Take a look at the joi…
  • @petern: Ha. Well I wrote one from scratch... because I'm stupid. Posted it here: http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/12811/how-to-lighttpd-rewrite-rules
  • @Gillingham: Did you just draw ascii breasts? o.O
  • @Tim, @Petern: I totally solved this booger! The problem is that those jquery ajax calls for the pop-ups are basically appending this on the end: &DeliveryType=VIEW The lighttpd rewrite rules floating around would hence generate a URL that loo…
  • @petern: I do have mod_magnet. In fact, I'm using it for handling my Wordpress rewrite rules. I had forgotten all about it. That's a good lead for me to hunt down! Thanks!
  • Ok. I give up. Sorry for the novel above. If I remove the arguments and just pass {} then I get the entire page (rather than just the upload picture part) in the pop-up, which I guess one could say is progress. It's better than file not found. …
  • deleted: @Tim beat me to it.
  • @Tim: Somehow I missed your post yesterday. That's pretty much what I've tried (though you have an extra slash after php). It *mostly* works. But when I click on "Change Picture" I get "The page you were looking for could not be found." This see…
  • I cleared mine out by going into the database and clearing out the conversations table. Messing around in the database can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing, though. The GDN_Conversation and GDN_ConversationMessage are the tables yo…
  • The best way is to make your own theme and override the css for that. I don't know what the css is for it, but you should be able to figure it out with either Firebug or "Inspect Element" in Chrome. You can also just view source on the page, find …
