Please, don't be alarmed by falling debris such as glass or cement, it's just routine construction. The forum will feel like this for a few days here, as I tweak, hack and destroy everything that makes a vBulletin a vBulletin just in efforts to make it look the way I want it to.:confused:

I'll re-post this thread when I'm 100% done or have given up. :eek:

UPDATE:

+ completed the three skins
+ made the skins rotate like the main site
~ still need to customize a butt-load of forum-buttons
~ still need to tweak a few navigation things that aren't even complete on the main page

I'll work on the forums a bit later tonight like installing the shoutbox and I'll be working on a drop down bar in the footer to jump from here to Hosting Tropolis (the forum project since I'm banned at WHT)

Good, shoutbox = good! And why is it that every time I come to the forum, I am not logged in. I told Firefox to remember as always and selected the box and everything and it still will not remember my info..?
BTW: How do you keep getting banned from all these places?

It's the only place I am banned at. I called the staff lazy cause they didn't want to close a thread so I got banned temporarily lol.

Might need to work on vBulletin's backend a lot.

Hard at work i see, good to know our [YOUR] precious Forum is not forgotten, though we gotta get more than 20 active members so it doesn't look like I'm talking to myself all the time. In that case i would post more often.

In case you haven't read up on it, the entire server just went under due to a security issue. This caused us to have to wipe clean and switch to a new server, losing most all of the previous setup's styles and configuration. Now we need to start new and believe it or not, this is day 4 of the new server and it only took me 2.5 to style and get the essential pages up and running.
So that's why there aren't so many members yet. I personally don't care about the size of the community, I just care that this small group of friends is able to stay in touch through this common medium and better each other through means of media.

I've got one little project to get busy on and then I'll start making the forums and running some backend stuff to fix the login / logout issue.

Sweet. Not 100%, but greatly improved!
The login/logout issue isn't all that bad, I have Firefox save the name, at least and all I have to do is hit "R" (for righteous) and enter twice.

Yeah it hasn't logged me out yet. I'm gonna wait a few days to see if it does.

It logs me out every (inactive) hour. Like when I have the admin cpanel open while I code or do something else, I'll click save on something and it'll request another login.

Seems to be a cookie setting, I've changed it to .wabuf.com so it shoud be fixed since remember me is supposed to renew your session. If it doesn't work I'll switch it to database activity so it'll never log you out unless you log out.

...seems to work through restarting. I restarted and I'm in Ubuntu and it worked after startup. You may have it licked, but I'll go back to Windows and double-check.

Well it seemed to log me out earlier after an hour of inactivity so I'm hoping that we can switch it to just store stuff in the DB that way you'll never have to have a cookie again.
