Why am I not surprised at the one week thing. *rolls eyes*

Meh, I'll just keep using the stormbirds.org address for the time being. Bookmarks are updated so it's not a huge distraction.

That's what's been said but it's not a TOP priority right now, I don't think. Doesn't mean it'll take forever, but the board's still 99% functional without it.

The word from the powers that be is that they prefer board.acmlm.org due to coding issues, plus it's easier to remember

And plus it's easier to follow links if everyone uses board.acmlm.org

I actually didn't see the lost of GD, but now I see that post counts and such aren't visible.

Still, you can change it in the edit profile so the post counts are plain text. So... yeah.

About the domain name. Our previous URL could not be varied. We could only use one URL. Now, however...
  • board.acmlm.org
  • www.acmlm.org/board
  • acmlm.org/board
The general idea of what we're going to do about it is that we'll insert a smaller hack in the board simply directing you to the 'correct' version - the officially sponsored URL, board.acmlm.org. If we keep doing that, people will NOT be able to use their old URL, and once again there'll be ONE URL and one set of cookies (because of it being one domain).

I think we should just let people use the URL they want. It's easier for people that share comp, like me and Sofie

She has cookies on acmlm.org/board, I have cookies on board.acmlm.org. That way we don't need to login and logout all the time, we can just use different bookmarks.

yeah, most links on the board right now, only work with board.acmlm.org....like when it was down, I clicked on a link, and it took me to board.acmlm.org/somethread so it didnt work..and if someone uses acmlm.org/board and isnt logged in on the other, it will get annoying if you want to post, but have to login..everyone should just stick to 1 of them..

My last version (1.92) ran fine from any URL, and it needs to stay that way (I wasn't exactly happy after a certain update when I saw acmlm.org/board give errors in function.php about /board/board) ... ||bass fixed it for now by hardcoding the file path, but what if you're going to distribute the updated version?


acmlm.org, www.acmlm.org and board.acmlm.org all work fine here (at work), but board.acmlm.org got on and later off at home

Ugh, no... not everyone wants to use board.acmlm.org, not everyone wants to use acmlm.org/board.

What you SHOULD do is simply set a cookie for the domain "acmlm.org" with the folder "/"; it'll work on every domain/subdomain (but then Jiz loses his ability to use both for different logins, and the acmlm.org//board trick is lost)

Either way, there's no winner. People should use relative links (thread.php instead of ...acmlm.org/board/thread.php, etc) and online.php could probably use a better URL grabber (get the server, too, instead of just the end)

I like using /board/ because it gives that old feel. Heh.

Yes, it's because Erk absolutely had to have an admin folder. So he needed to solve the relative path problems (because the admin pages would need to include function.php and other such pages which are in a sibling folder, and not an underlying folder) and I guess his solution was hacky. I have not to this day wrapped my head around exactly what he's doing to solve it.

No, what we SHOULD do is sponsor one simple URL (check) and make every alternative URL redirect to that (notable absense of check). Consistent while allowing people to use other URLs if they are so inclined; catering to old fogeys and people who don't care alike. No, not everyone wants to use the same URL. That's why they'll be able to use alternative URLs.

As for Jizuko's problem, not only does Firefox (his browser of choice) allow one distinct profile per Windows user, but also actually allows distinct profiles within the boundaries of one user. So stop using the loophole (which per definition is only open due to a flawed design) and use two profiles. (Start -> Mozilla Firefox -> Profile Manager)
