I'm not the best with graphics or layout... but I've got a lot of hacks on this board. Including a few that I've done myself. I've added a few extra preference settings (like a user selectable thread ordering). Also, I'm currently working on the "Who's Online" feature at the bottom of the page. It works, but I'm working on expanding it some more, and having an add-on script that will not only display who is on but where in the boards they are.

wow....how do you do the online users thing?

yes, this hack is definitely noteworthy.

Great job! Release the hack!

It's cool but I don't think it works cause it's the same people for the past 48 hours. And I first visited 48 hours ago.

It works... maybe your page just isn't updating or it really is the same people. I'll post the hack in the beta forum...

Well it's probably just me. My cookies are really buggy lately and your script uses it. It's really cool though.

Well, I just hacked my forums so that I can run forums for different sites all on the same software. It's the next best thing to shelling out for another license.

The cool thing about it is, I made it so that the one set of forums (for one site) is actually available on the other site. It wasn't that bad of a hack to do either - as far as writing new code. The only downside is it meant going in to almost EVERY cgi script and basically adding the same stuff in tons of places (everywhere a cgi script was referenced).

Check it out:

First site (contains forums for the other site) - http://www.arlo.net/ubb/cgi-bin/Ultimate.cgi

Second site - http://www.arlo.net/ubb/cgi-bin/Ultimate.cgi?site=Guthrie+Center+Forums

The thing I like the best is that when I hack new stuff in... both sites get it at the same time since they are both using the exact same scripts (just different configuration files).

Dave, who do you get the main graphic centered with the register, profile, search etc... links under it??

Wow Dave, you are really cranking out the code.

Going for the MVP (Most valuable Programmer) award heh?
