			<description>
			<![CDATA[
				An example of an embedded image is the image which is currently in the middle of this post. All attached images which are not embedded within a post, will continue to display below the post as they always have been, as either inlined or grouped.How to embed an attached image In the post editor, place your cursor where you want your attachment to be embedded at. Open the Attachment Manager. Click on the attachment's imagealigncenteralignYour attached image will now appear within your post, rather than grouped below your post thumbsupNotes If you are creating a new post, or adding new attachments, they will appear as Linked Image within the post preview. Don't worry, they will be inline embedded within your new post once your post has been saved. If you are editing a post that already has attachments stored, they will be available and displayed within the post preview. The technical reason behind this is that newly uploaded attachments live in a temp folder. When the post is saved, UBB.threads processes and moves them in to the attachments directory. All files in the UBB.threads temp directory older than two hours are considered to be orphan files and are purged. Each embedded image attachment expects that you will use your post to describe your images, therefor they will not display descriptions created within the Attachment Manager. Attachments that are not embedded will continue to use descriptions and will continue to be presented in the lightbox player.

				SummaryThe UBB.Gallerymap script aids in the discovery portion of search engine crawling instead of waiting and hoping that your URL's get crawled, an XML Sitemap alerts Google or any crawlers which allow sitemaps as to what gallery items exist on your forums, so they know what to crawl based on what you tell them.Most search engines will take your feed once a week or so and run it through to determine new URLs, on a Google Webmaster Tools account, you can browse exactly how many URLs have been included, as well as when the last time they have hit your site.Please note however, that Google will still crawl your site and try to perform its own discovery, so please do not use a robots.txt entry to block it as it must be able to crawl the content provided in the sitemap in order to populate your entries.The configuration options allow you to specify which type of sitemap you wish to use and whether you wish to plugin threaded or flat view. The sitemap type and view type can both be set either by hard coding the appropriate variable or via a URL string.

				What Is Covered Summary About the Modification Additional Files Caching Demonstration Install Instructions Usage Instructions Settings Configuration Settings Database Connection Information Cache  Optimization Options Human Readable Permalinks Human Readable XML Styling Submissions UBB.threads Version  URLs Changelog Frequently Asked Questions What does purchasing a license entitle me to What is a Sitemap Useful Links Thank YouSummaryThis page represents the full documentation for the UBB.Membermap script by VNC Web Services.About the Modification Requirements UBB.threads 7.x not compatible with UBB.threads 6.x or below Current Version 20191222 License Information This script is not freeware, it requires a license by purchasing a license you're granted usage on 1 one UBB.threads installation. Any additional installations require an additional license.  Updates are available for 1 year after initial purchase after this timeframe, to aid in development costs, you must renew your access to updates see the purchase link below for further information.  You cannot freely provide this script to others without written permission from the author. Pricing 30 Purchase Here Support Support is available on the UBBDev thread 7.x UBB.Membermap.UBB.Membermap was created to allow webmasters a quick and easy way of feeding links to their member database into Search Engines by way of a Sitemap.This script aids in the discovery portion of search engine crawling instead of waiting and hoping that your URL's get crawled, an XML Sitemap alerts Google or any crawlers which allow sitemaps as to what URLs exist on your forums, so they know what to crawl based on what you tell them.Most search engines will check your feed every so often timeframe unknown run through the links in order to determine any new new URLs, on a Google Webmaster Tools account, you can browse exactly how many URLs have been included, as well as when the last time they have hit your site.Please note however, that Google will still crawl your site and try to perform its own discovery, so please do not use a robots.txt entry to block it as it must be able to crawl the content provided in the sitemap in order to populate your entries.The configuration options allow you to specify which type of sitemap you wish to use and whether you wish to plugin threaded or flat view. The sitemap type and view type can both be set either by hard coding the appropriate variable or via a URL string.File ListingYour install archive will contain several files, namely cachesitemap  A blank directory to show the proper nesting for the default cache directory. csssitemap.css  A CSS Stylesheet for XML Feeds. readme.txt  A brief readme which gives basic tips on getting started, and a link here to the full documentation. robots.txt  A listing of instructions for crawlers which support robots.txt see below for a listing of the supplied instructions. sitemap.xsl  An XSL Style. ubb.membermap.php  The UBB.Membermap script itself.CachingThe cache option will build a copy of the output and store it for a defined period of time, any user accessing the file during this period will be served the cached file vs the live file with the exception of the initial visiting user who will be served the live file.The exception header option will allow you to set a date in the future when the content of the file should change, we default this to 24 hours so the client should cache this file on their side for this time frame.To utilize caching you will need a cachesitemap folder from the script instance that is chmodded 777.  The Test URL discussed below should always bypass the cache.DemonstrationThe UBB.Membermap script offers several sitemap generation styles, these are UBB.Sitemaps  ASP Sitemap UBB.Sitemaps  Link Sitemap UBB.Sitemaps  RSS Sitemap UBB.Sitemaps  Sitemap Index UBB.Sitemaps  Text Sitemap UBB.Sitemaps  XML SitemapYou can style your XML and Test output pages, which make them more human readable and functional in the case of the XSL style UBB.Sitemaps  Style CSS UBB.Sitemaps  Style XSLInstall InstructionsOpen the ubb.membermap.php file in a plain text editor such as notepad or EditPlus and adjust the variables for your environment all of the settings include comments which give information on the setting as well as the defaults.The default configuration settings will generate an XML sitemap which will be fine for any search engines that support them Google and Bing most notably.After customizing the script settings you'll need to upload the script to your web root some search engines will require that your Sitemap be in the webroot of your primary domain httpwww.example.com.Usage InstructionsWe've built the sitemap generator to be quite flexible, there are several options and parameters that you can customize for your live feed of your sitemap for numerous uses scenarios as Sitemap Types 0Test, 1XML, 2Text, 3html, 4RSS, 5ASP, 6SitemapIndex Default 6SitemapIndex Use SE Friendly or Search Engine Optimized URLs Default 1Yes Offsetting links to break up large forum sitemaps into manageable chunks. Valid values are from 050000 Default 10000And all variables can output either as default by directly accessing ubb.membermap.php or by defining a parameter in the URL, such asGoogle would be happiest with httpwww.example.comubb.membermap.phptype6se1 or httpwww.example.comubb.membermap.phptype1se1 That's type6 for a Sitemap Index or type1 for XML, and se1 for SEOSpider Friendly URL's.  We recommend that everyone just default to using a SitemapIndex as it futureproofs your site as a Sitemap can only have up to 50k links however, loading the ceiling maximum of data, to be loaded at once, can cause strain on your server. Using a SitemapIndex will break your Sitemap up into more manageable chunks.In the past, yahoo was more comfortable with RSS feeds, but recently they've also adapted to work well with Google's XML sitemaps.As this script pulls data live from the database, it is unwise to link directly to the various output options unless it's being fed into search engines as there is a potential for a lot data output.  We recommend always using the caching option.To test to ensure that your sitemap is working before providing the feed URL's to search engines, please load your sitemap generator with the following parameters as the preview uses a small limit it shouldn't take longer than a couple of seconds to executehttpwww.example.comubb.membermap.phptype0se1The sitemap index only works with XML sitemap feeds based off of the sitemaps.org standard as these are only valid under XML sitemaps they display the output according to that standard only. To grab the sitemap index should you have the need to utilize the offset option please access it ashttpwww.example.comubb.membermap.phptype6se1If you are _NOT_ going to use a SitemapIndex and want to load the entire dataset at once, you'll want to change the offsets option to not utilize them, otherwise it'll load the amount of data up to the default offset chunk size of 10k.SettingsConfiguration Settingsconfbanned  1  Display banned users. 0No, 1Yesconfconnection  1  0  Set DB Info below 1  Pull data from UBB.threads Config.confcustom  0  Require a custom field to be filled out. 0No, 1Yesconfdomain    The domain that your forum is installed on Ex example.com if blank will read the _SERVERHTTP_HOST PHP variable recommended.confextension  1  Use HTML extension 0No, 1Yesconffolder  forum  The folder that your UBB.threads is located in, Example httpswww.example.comforums would be forums without trailing slashconffrequency  4  0  Never, 1  Always, 2  Hourly, 3  Daily, 4  Weekly, 5  Monthly, 6  Yearly, 9  No Displayconffriendly  1  Use SE FriendlySEO Links  0  No, 1  Yesconfoffsets  1  0  No, 1  Yes if SitemapIndex See Type Aboveconfposts  0  0  Any,   Minimum Postsconfrewrite  0  Respect Apache Rewrite Rules 0  No, 1  Yesconfssl  0  0  Native based on url accessed, 1  Always Show SSL URLsconfstylexml  0  0  No, 1  CSS sitemap.css, 2  XSL sitemap.xslconfstylename  sitemap.xsl  The name of the sitemap style an example csssitemap.css and sitemap.xsl are supplied.conftimezone  AmericaLos_Angeles  Your localized timezone default AmericaLos_Angeles.

Please note that using GZip has been known to cause some minor CPU load, however most virtual hosting servers should be more than antiquate to allow this option.Human Readable PermalinksIn v0.2 we added the ability to specify human readable permalinks.  These links are programmed into both sitemap scripts UBB.Sitemaps and UBB.Membermap and function via Apache Rewrite Rules.  These rules go into your .htaccess file if supported by your web server and will redirect the following urlshttpexample.comsitemap_index.xml  Sitemap Index page  ubb.sitemap.phptype6se1httpexample.comsitemap_listing.xml  Forum Listing page  ubb.sitemap.phptype7se1httpexample.comsitemap_members.xml  UBB.Sitemap Member Listing  ubb.membermap.phptype6se1httpexample.comsitemap_testing.xml  UBB.Sitemaps Test Page  ubb.sitemap.phptype0se1httpexample.comubb_membermap  Offset Pageshttpexample.comubb_membermap.html  Offset Pageshttpexample.comubb_sitemap  Offset Pageshttpexample.comubb_sitemap.html  Offset Pages UBB.threads Sitemap Apache RulesRewriteEngine OnRewriteBase RewriteRule sitemap_index.xml ubb.sitemap.phptype6se1 LRewriteRule sitemap_listing.xml ubb.sitemap.phptype7se1 LRewriteRule sitemap_members.xml ubb.membermap.phptype6se1 LRewriteRule sitemap_testing.xml ubb.sitemap.phptype0se1 LRewriteRule ubb_membermap09 ubb.membermap.phptype1se1offset1 LRewriteRule ubb_membermap09.html ubb.membermap.phptype1se1offset1 LRewriteRule ubb_sitemap09 ubb.sitemap.phptype1se1offset1 LRewriteRule ubb_sitemap09.html ubb.sitemap.phptype1se1offset1 L UBB.threads Sitemap Apache RulesHuman Readable XML StylingYou can enable styling of any output of XML feeds so that a human can better read and interact with your sitemap.  This is controlled with the confstylexml and confstylename variables within the Configuration Settings.You can opt to use a simple CSS Stylesheet or a XSL Style which was supplied by id242 the XSL file is what we recommend using as it makes the XML output interactive.  A demo of this can be found in the Demonstration section above.SubmissionsNot all search engines will check back automatically to recheck your sitemap in fact, we've only noticed that Google will recheck on its own. You'll need to check back with other search engines to resubmit your sitemap if they do not autocheck it for you.We recommend providing the following URL to search engines that support XML sitemapshttpwww.example.comubb.membermap.phptype6se1Those switches, as mentioned in the Usage Instructions will generate a Sitemap Index with links to various XML sitemaps with Search Engine FriendlySEO URLsUBB.threads Version  URLsURLs and associated variables have changed several times in the coarse of UBB.threads, below is some brief information for the confversion variable0  v7.5 Series  v7.5 introduces SE Friendly URLs, which provides the topic title within the link itself.1  v7.6 Series  v7.6.0 introduces Search Engine Optimized SEO URLs, which provides the topic title within the link itself, and optimized the display for.There was a security issue in previous releases, which was patched in v7.5.8 which updated how URLs are written within UBB.threads however, this patch was written poorly and introducedallowed characters which are not valid in a URL see RFC3986.  As such, these URLs are not, and will never be, supported by this script as all parts of this script, much like us, remain standards compliant.  Users with unsupported versions v7.5.8v7.5.9 can opt to install id242's modification Better URL Sanitization for SEO 7.6.0 URLs utilize this same codeChangelog20191222 December 22nd, 2019 Added Debug mode ubb.membermap.phpdebug1 will allow you to see your UBB.Membermap settings and a forum overview in an easy to read page. Added A new version check will display a version notice on the debug page. Added A switch has been added for the beta group which will display if you're running a beta release or not.  This will allow the new version check to be able to display notices for final builds. Added Introduced basic mobile compatibility on HTML generated pages type3 Added You can now restrict the results to users who supply a location.v0.2 August 28th, 2018 Added a config option to specify a .html extension for links. Added an option to not display the frequency line. Added an option to not display the .html extension for sitemap files. Added support to always produce HTTPS SSL URLs useful for sites on a CDN where the local server may still try to produce nonHTTPS links when using wildcard HTTPS urls. Added support for including the UBB.threads configuration for sites running UBB.threads from the webroot not in a folder. Added support for specifying a domain useful if your UBB.threads install is on a subdomain and you wish to have UBB.Sitemaps located on your main domain. Added support for human readable permalinks with Apache Rewrite Rules Removed the need for a trailing slash in the folder config. Changed the MySQL database connection to utilize MySQLi for PHP7 support. Minor code changes for script performance.v0.1 October 8, 2016 Initial version released to the public.Frequently Asked Questions What does purchasing a license entitle me toBy purchasing a license to the UBB.Sitemap script you're entitled to lifetime support of the script for the lifetime period of the script.  You also receive access to a year of updates for free.  After the year period updates are purchased in blocks of 1 year for 30yr to cover development costs.  Please note that you are entitled to install this script on ONE domain per license additional domains will require additional licenses. What is a SitemapA sitemap will take and provide all of your current threads to search engines, thus eliminating the wait of new discovery of new pages on your forums.You can read about the benefits of using sitemaps via the below quoted article from Google Webmaster Tools.What is a sitemap, and why should I have oneA Sitemap file lets you tell us about all the pages on your site, and optionally, information about those pages, such as which are most important and how often they change. By submitting a Sitemap file, you can take control of the first part of the crawlingindexing processes our discovery of the pages.This may be particularly helpful if your site has dynamic content, pages that aren't easily discovered by following links, or if your site is new and has few links to it.Sitemaps help speed up the discovery of your pages, which is an important first step in crawling and indexing your pages, but there are many other factors that influence the crawlingindexing processes. Sitemaps lets you tell us information about your pages which ones you think are most important, how often the pages change, so you can have a voice in these subsequent steps. Other factors include how many sites link to you, if your content is unique and relevant, if we can crawl the pages successfully, and everything outlined in our webmaster guidelines.A Sitemap provides an additional view into your site just as your home page and HTML site map do. This program does not replace our normal methods of crawling the web. Google still searches and indexes your sites the same way it has done in the past whether or not you use this program. Sites are never penalized for using this service. This is a beta program, so we cannot make any predictions or guarantees about when or if your URLs will be crawled or added to our index. Over time, we expect both coverage and timetoindex to improve as we refine our processes and better understand webmasters' needs.Once you have created your Sitemap, you can add it to your Google Sitemaps account and update it as your site changes.The UBB.Membermap script will only generate links for your users of your UBB.threads install it will not generate links for your entire site.  We recommend generating a sitemap for your site content outside of this script versus trying to hijack built in routines, as you're only allowed a certain amount of links in a sitemap 50k and UBB.Membermap adjusts itself accordingly if you're using a sitemap index with offsets.Useful LinksUBBDev discussion for UBB.MembermapScript Information on VNC Web ServicesBing Webmaster CenterGoogle Webmaster ToolsThank YouI'd like to take the time to fully acknowledge id242 for assisting me with several tasks for this script, and for renewing my interests in everything when I was at my wit's end.  Thanks to your support, hard work, and friendship, everything is looking up .The UBB.Membermap script is not freeware, it is licenseware a separate license is required for every unique instance of the sitemap script that exists on your server.

I cannot connect to my local mail server using 127.0.0.1Use localhost instead. Things seem really slowThere are several items that can slow down a connection to a remote server, several of which we thought of when writing this script always specifying a port for example.  One tip that was suggested via the PHP.net discussion was to utilize an IP address versus a HostName where this may not work on some servers, it will connect faster if they do support it.

			<title>UBB.threads v8 (Proposed 2009)</title>
			<link>https://ubbdev.com/wiki/view/100/ubb-threads-v8-proposed-2009.html</link>
			<description>
			<![CDATA[
				What Is Covered Dates Notes Original AnnouncementDatesChangelogs in the private Beta Testing forum at UBBCentral began to be posted on May 26th, 2009 the final changelog entry posted was on Apr 15th 2011.NotesUBB.threads v8 was a proposed build of UBB.threads which was abandoned. While alpha builds exist, the only people who had access to them where on the beta testing team and where thus never public.Some code and feature ideas that where to appear in the v8 release have appeared in various v7 releases, up to and including the UBBDev releases.Original AnnouncementThe following announcement was posted by the former owner, and original developer, of UBB.threads, Rick Baker on May 26th, 2009 it was posted to the private UBB.threads Beta Group.We'll be posting some information here concerning version 8 as it progresses. Since this is a major rewrite we won't be posting every small change, but we'll try and list out some of the major ones.We'll be using the Yahoo User Interface YUI Library and testing in the supported browsers.We'll be saying goodbye to the table heavy design we have now. We'll still use some tables for tabular data, but we'll be using CSS for the layout. This ia a major change in itself and we'll be validating all pages to be XHTML Transitional compliant as we go along.The majority of our graphics will be in .png format. All of these will be completely new and designed by professional graphics designers.We're working on the Control Panel redesign first so you can expect to see notes and maybe some screenshots for this soon. Please note that any screenshots posted are subject to change as we certainly will be tweaking and adjusting colors, fonts, etc.

				SummaryThis entry will provide information on the past UBB Trial Versions, which are no longer available as of Series 7.Series 6In the UBB.threads6 and UBB.classic6 releases there was a Trial Version which had some features disabled as it was not to be run in a production environment this version of the software was to be run to test compatibility with your server settings.Series 7With the UBB.threads7 releases the software is coded to be compatible with a wide array of configuration settings, and thus there isn't a need for a Trial Version if you can run a simple PHP script on your server, and you have MySQL installed, it should just work.

				What Is Covered Summary Languages Tab Search  Edit Language Strings Example Search Language Editor Add New Strings Additional InformationSummaryThe language editor in UBB.threads is a fairly straight forward tool instead of directly editing the language file itself you can edit all of the individual strings within the language file in the language editor including adding additional strings.Languages are managed from the UBB.threads Admin Center in the Languages section of the Display Options panelCP  Display Options  LanguagesLanguage Editor  Left MenuLanguages TabThe Languages Tab is where you'd manage which languages you have installed and where you can adjust the name displayed to your users.  The official language set with UBB.threads is English US, so if you where adding say English UK or English AU you could have their names set to something easier for your localized users to understand.Adding a new language requires that you unzip the language files and upload them manually to your languages folder.  We have a listing of various languages available in our archive category UBB.Threads v7.x Language Files.  If you're interested in translating UBB.threads please feel free to read How to Translate UBB.threads.Language Editor  Main ScreenSearch  Edit Language StringsFrom here you can select the language that you wish to manage and you can choose whether to search for a language string, or edit the language file directly.  The search will look only for your query, whereas editing the file itself will populate all fields in the specified language file.  Searching for a string or selecting a language file will bring you to the Language Editor section below.Language Editor  Search ScreenExample SearchIf the string that you're looking for is All of the required fields are not filled in you'd go to the language editor, click on the search tab, and enter your string into the Search String box, you'd check that the language you're wanting is selected for multilingual forums, and you'd click the Go button which will send you to the below Language Editor screen.Language EditorNow that you've selected your language file or searched for your language string you'll be on the editor screen.  Here you have the key you're editing and the string associated with it think of the key as the signifier in the code for where the string reads out.  Simply update the string text box for the key you wish to change and select the Update Language File button.Language Editor  Edit ScreenAdd New StringsAt the bottom of the Language Editor screen you'll find an area to enter new language strings to the language file it's the same process as above, only you'll be naming your key as well.  This is generally done when you're adding new strings to your UBB.threads install.Language Editor  New EntriesAdditional InformationSome language strings have a prefix, which is helpful for identifying their function a brief rundown of several prefixes is as followsPrefix  Related FunctionUAN  addpostREG  adduser  verifyemailWNx  watchnotifyBDAY  cfrmPDN  changebasicPREQPSND  adminpassword miscPMN  sendmessageDNM  donotifymodDAUx  admindoadduserDEE  admindoexportemailsDSE  admindosendemailDMTDMP  domailthreadVER  email verification

			<description>
			<![CDATA[
				What Is Covered Summary Exporting a Style Importing a Style Developing a StyleSummaryThere are several areas that we'd like to tackle in regards to styles first we will introduce you to importing and exporting your styles, THEN we'll cover some basic tips on developing your first style.Styles are managed from the UBB.threads Admin Center in the Styles section of the Display Options panelAdmin Center  Display Options  StylesExporting a StyleExporting a style is quite simple, from the Style Management section of the Admin Center you'll want to select the appropriate Export optionExport with Wrapper  If you've made changes to the default wrapper, or created a wrapper specifically for the style that you're exporting, then you'd want to select this option.Export without Wrapper  If you have not made any changes to the default wrapper, and your style is using the default wrapper, you'd want to select this option.Style Editor  Manage LinksImporting a StyleImporting a new style is also quite the simple task at the bottom of the Style Management screen you'll see a tab named Import, simply click this tab and you'll be brought to the Import Style page.  On this next page you'll have an option to select the file to import, and then by clicking the Continue button your style will be uploaded.Style Editor  Import ScreenStyle Editor  Bottom TabsOnce your style is uploaded you will be directed to the Style Update screen where you can make adjustments to the style if you'd like to make changes you may do so now, or you can just select the Update or Add Style button an image of this page can be seen in the Developing a Style section below.You can return to the Style Editor at any time by selecting the Edit link next to the style on the Style Management screen.Developing a StyleDeveloping a style can have some caveats of it's own as the formatting of the styles require that you know, or at least understand greatly, how CSS formatting works. If you're unfamiliar with CSS we'd recommend that you either Contract Out for your style services or, at the very least, we recommend that you read up on CSS at a site like w3c Schools.If you're insistent on creating your own style, we recommend that you take and load the defaultstock styles in the editor so that you can understand what each element does and how some of the default CSS is designed to make the display appear as it does in that style.Style Editor  Editing Style

			<![CDATA[
				SummaryAttachments allow you to upload a file to a post, so long as you have been given permissions to do so and the file type has been allowed. Attachments will appear in a post as an attachment with a link to the file. Image files can be set to display the image itself in lieu of a link. If they meet the criteria set up in the control panel such as file size, etc.  There are several steps to make attachments work.Assign a DirectoryThe first thing you need to decide is where to place all the uploaded files, I created a directory called uploads then a sub directory called attachments for this feature this makes it easy to know that all files in uploads need to be included in my backups. Create the directory using either a FTP program such as Filezilla. Or using the control panel provided by your web host such as CPanel. In this example we will create one called uploads,then a sub directory called attachments. So it will appear as uploadsattachmentsSet PermissionsNow we need to set file permissions to the new directories to 755 or 777 so they are writeable by the UBB a rule of thumb in the past with official notations is that directories should be chmodded 777 and files chmodded 666.Add the Directory to UBBFirst, we need to set a URL path and an Absolute path.  Enter your Control Panel, if you're not sure what your server path is visit the Paths and URLs section of the control panel.If the Paths and URLs link notes that your server path is homeuserpublic_htmlforums then your attachments path would be homeuserpublic_htmluploadsattachments.Now you'll want to navigate to Feature Settings and select the Attachments tab. The first field Attachment Storage Directory is the absolute path so you would enter homeuserpublic_htmluploadsattachments The second field Full URL to Attachment Storage Directory is your url to the attachments directory so you would enter httpwww.domain.tlduploadsattachments The third field Allowed Attachment File Extensions is where you add the allowed file type extensions, separated by a comma. When finished select the Update Feature Settings button.After you enter the path, select the Click to Test Directory link this will test that the directoy is configured correctly by writing a small file to the directory called test.file some features require this file to exist, if this step fails go back to step two.Settings for image uploads Navigate to Display Options  General in the UBB Control Panel. Select the Topic Display Options Section to expand it. Add a value for Max Size for inline uploaded images. If an image is attached to a post, if it is smaller than the specified size in bytes, it will be displayed in the post. This value is entered in bytes so for a 1 MB file you would enter 1048576 if the file is larger than what is entered it will display as a link.Forum PermissionsNext, you'll need to set permissions on a forum basis so that users can upload files. Navigate to Permissions  Forum Permissions Select the forum you wish to allow uploads in and then select the Switch button to change to that forum.There are several options that you'll need to update Can Download Attachments  Enter a 1 for each group type you wish to allow to download. Maximum Size of File Attachments  Enter a value in bytes that each group type can upload. Total  of File Attachments   This will limit the number of attachments per post allowed. This can be a different value per group but can never exceed the maximum value set is step 4. Also no matter what, you can't exceed the value in php.ini which is displayed in this setting.User GuideNow, you may be asking, how do I use this feature When you're making a new post or reply, when the forum permissions allow attachments, there will be an option called File Manager using the quick reply will not allow you to attach files.  When you click the File Manager link you will see a popup window, in the header you will see how many files you may upload as well as the file size limitation. Caption  if you wish to provide a few words about your upload, you may enter it here. Browse  When you click this button you will be able to select a file from your system. Add File  When you click this button, the file you selected above will be uploaded to the server. Attached Files  Here you will see your uploaded files, and have the option to remove them from your posting.When you're finished uploading files, select the Done Adding Files button and you will be returned to your post, you will see how many files you have attached, but will not see your uploads on this screen.  Just like any other post, you'll need to enter a subject and body before you're able to post.Depending on the settings by the admin for file sizes for inline images, your image will appear displayed within your post.  If the size is above the setting size it will display as a link that you can select to open it.

			<description>
			<![CDATA[
				Summary Permissions are a very powerful method to distribute unique user permissions to individuals. When used in conjunction with the Groups feature in UBB you can just about do anything you want. The only issue with this is the more complicated you make the groups and permissions the harder it is to keep track of them. Permissions for forums, site and control panel are assigned to groups not users per say. So you would create the groups then assign permissions to the groups then assign users to the groups.Editing Site Permissions Login to your board as a admin. Select the Control Panel link on the left. Scroll down to the Permissions Section and select the Site Permissions link. On this screen you will see All fields require a numeric value. Enter 0 to disable and 1 to enable, unless otherwise specified. If a user belongs to multiple groups, a  indicates the user will get the highest permission, a  indicates they will get the lowest. If you enter a 1 for any specific permission, then a user will not have that permission even if they belong to other groups that do have it set.Can view the Member List Enter a 1 to enable the group or a 0 to disable the group for access viewing the user listing.Can See Extra User Info Enter a 1 to enable the group or a 0 to disable the group for access viewing extra info in various locations. Such as IP, Browser and Referer Info. This is typically not used for regular users.Maximum length of signatures This field is used to limit the number of characters in the groups signature. So enter a value 0 to disable or a value to limit the number of characters allowed.Total  of posts allowed in a private topic This field will limit not the number of topics but the number of posts replies that are contained in a particular topic. So enter a value other than the 1 or 0 indicated above. An example would be I start a private topic and after 100 replies back and forth between the recipients then they would need to start a new topic.Can specify a remote avatar This field will allow a Group to enter a avatar image URL in their profile that is located at another site instead of uploading one to your site.Can see the shoutbox This field will limit if a group can view the shoutbox feature if enabled.Minimum time between searches This field will limit the time between searches in seconds. Example would be if set to 0 then a Group could do unlimited searches, If set to 30 then a Group would need to wait 30 seconds to attempt another search.Can create global announcements Global Posts will appear in every forum not just the one forum it is posted in. Also as of version 7.5.6 Global Posts do not allow replies.Can email posts to others When a Group is browsing a post there is a email button to send to others. This will only appear if enabled for the group the user is in.Can vote in polls If polls are enabled in a forum this will determine if the group the user is in, is allowed to vote in the poll.Max  of private topic participants This field will limit the number recipients that a Group sends the private topic to. For example if set to 5 then the topic starter will be limited to 5 recipients.Can choose a stock avatars This will allow Groups to select stock avatars uploaded to the site by the admin not by other users. They would do so by selecting them in their profile settings.Can use the shoutbox This setting will allow Groups to actually post in the shout box if enabled. You also need to enable them to view the shoutbox from a setting above.Can set a Custom Title This will set the Max  of characters in their custom title. If you set this to 0 then the Group will not have the option to enter their own custom title, superseding the default titles. If you wish to allow them to have a custom title entered in their profile setting then you need to enter the number of characters allowed.Can view Member Profiles This setting will allow a Group to view member profiles. Such as electing a user from the user list, And be able to see the selected users details.Can use image tag in signatures This will allow a Group to add a image tag to their profile.Total  of private topics allowed The maximum number of private topics this group can have. If this is set to 0, this group cannot start new private topics. This is different than the other private topic settings. Where this limits the number of topics a user can have. Instead of the number of recipients or number of replies.Can create new calendar events This item will allow the group to post events in the calendar feature if enabled.Can upload an avatar This item will allow a group to upload a avatar image to your site. for their use in their profile. You have the option in other areas of the control panel to specify where the uploads are sent to as well as file size.Can use the Search Engine This item when configured will allow the group to use the search feature for posts and topics on the site. Finished editing When complete select the Update Site Permissions button.

				Summary Portal boxes are called Islands in the control panel. Once you have created a island you can use it to convey information in various ways. Currently we have three types available. Post Islands  Items that are posted as a new topic or as a reply Gallery Islands  items that are posted in a gallery forum Custom Islands  Specialty items that can be built from the two options above or totally stand alone such as a ad, menu, informational text or what ever you want.

				SummaryPolls are somewhat a tough question to answer. First is when creating a poll you do not see a progress or preview. Such as when creating a poll if you are allowed from the group you are in.

				SummaryGroups are a very powerful method to distribute unique user permissions to individuals. When used in conjunction with the permissions feature in UBB you can just about do anything you want. The only issue with this is the more complicated you make the groups and permissions the harder it is to keep track of them. Permissions for forums, site and control panel are assigned to groups not users per say. So you would create the groups then assign permissions to the groups then assign users to the groups. Members can be manually added to new groups as well as be auto promoted to new groups based on the number of posts a member has. For this article we will deal with just groups not permissions.  When you install UBB you start with the default groups Administrator  A person that has the ability to do anything in the control panel and the forum. Except for deleting the initial administrator. Global Moderator  A person that has the ability to moderate any forum on the site as well as what permissions are set to access the control panel. Moderator  A person that has the ability to moderate a specific forum on the site as well as what permissions are set to access the control panel. User  A person that that has been validated by registration to be a regular member and is logged in. Guest   A person that is visiting the site and has not registered  or is not logged in. Such as a spider would be a guest.You can add as many groups as you wish. But you can't delete the default groups noted above.Moderators if given control panel access do not truly have full control access such as a Administrator does. There are certain features that do not appear to them. In case you are not aware the user group is the default group assigned to a new registered user. This can be changed in the control panel.Adding a Group Login to your board as a admin. Select the Control Panel link on the left. Scroll down to the Forums Section and select the Group Management link.You will be presented with a screen that lists all the current groups associated with your forum.  The default groups will be missing some editable field's except for the Users Group. To add a Group select the Add New group tab at the bottom of the screen. All you need to do is enter a name and select the Add Group button.Editing a Group Login to your board as a admin. Select the Control Panel link on the left. Scroll down to the Forums Section and select the Group Management link. On this screen you will see several columns   This is the number assigned to the group in the MySql table. Auto generated. Delete  Other than the default groups this check box will allow you to delete a group Name  The name of the group that either you added or the default groups from the installation. If it is a non default group you can rename them here.  Image  A small graphic image that displays with the user to show their status. The user needs to elect the image to display it in their preferences. The change link allows you to upload a custom image for that group. Post Count  This is a value in number of posts that when the member exceeds that number they are automatically promoted to that group. Members  this item will display the number of members in that particular group. If you select this item it will take you to the member management section. To allow you to edit their group assignments. Edit Permissions   This allows you to edit the permissions for the groups usage for Forums, Site and Control Panel. See Permissions for more details.Do not enter a value if you do not wish a auto promote. Also again the default new member Users Group does have this value editable.Finished Adding or Editing Groups Select the Update groups button to store your changes.

			<![CDATA[
				SummaryThe gallery feature allows you to designate a forum or forums as a image gallery forum.  A Gallery forum will allow images uploaded as a post and the file size and number of images per post are designated by the Administrator.  Replies are allowed if the forum permissions allow so but reply's can't upload additional images.  Also once a forum is designated as a gallery forum you can't switch it back to a normal forum.Getting StartedIn the 7x versions when you installed it, there would have been a gallery directory included in the zip file.So the very first thing you should do is verify that the directory permissions are correct on your site.Checking File PermissionsYou can do this from the UBB control panel. Log in to the forum as a admin. Select the Control panel link on the left. Scroll down to the Tools  Info section and select the Permission Checks option. All items in this list should have a OK in green to the right of each directory. If you have a Fail item refer to ubbdev.comindex.phptitleUploading_the_Software_FilesSet_File_.26_Directory_Permissions Directory Permissions to correct it using either your FTP program or your web host control panel.If you see a Fail in red then you can click on that line item to show more detail.Gallery Settings Log in to the forum as a admin. Select the Control panel link on the left. Scroll down to the Master Settings section and select the Gallery Settings option. The first item Graphics Library is defaulted to GD2. You should verify that you have this installed from your host. If you elect to have ImageMagick if it is available you will first need to add the path to UBB  ADD BOOKMARK The rest of the fields are self explanatory. When done editing select the Update Settings button.Create a Gallery ForumYou will need to create a net new forum and before you start doing anything else designate it as a gallery forum. Log in to the forum as a admin. Select the Control panel link on the left. Scroll down to the forums Section and select the Forum Settings link. Select the Add New Forum Tab at the bottom of the screen. I would suggest the very first item to do is check the Is Gallery Forum field so you don't forget. Enter a forum title. Check the Forum Enabled field. Select the Add New Forum button at the bottom.This will create the Gallery forum with the bare minimum settings. You can go back later and edit the other fields.Forum PermissionsFor this article I will not get into the normal forum permission setting but deal with only permissions specific for a gallery forum. Log in to the forum as a admin. Select the Control panel link on the left. Scroll down to the Permissions Section and select the Forum Permissions link. In the Currently editing permissions for field select your new Gallery forum and click on the Switch button on the right. This will ensure you are editing permissions for that forum. In the middle column you will see Total  of gallery images , Select that item and enter a number of allowed files to upload per group for each group you desire. Enter a 0 for what group you do not wish to allow. In the right column select Maximum size of gallery images,Enter a value in bytes for the size of each uploaded file by group allowed. Select the Update this forum's permissions button to save your changes.To allow a 1MB file then you would enter 1048576. To allow none it would be 0. Also there is a caption in the header of this field. This displays the maximum file size allowed by your php.ini file from your host. File sizes will not be allowed to exceed this value. Contact your host to find out how to increase this value.User GuideNow that all of the steps are done, the question is, how do I use the feature  If the admin allows you to see and use the forum you can use this feature only limited by the file sizes and number of files set to what group you are in. The feature called Image Manager if enabled will appear when making a new topic or reply. Below the body of your post will be a link called Image manager. After you select the Image Manager link you will see a popup screen. In the header you will see how many files you may upload as well as the file size limitation. If you wish to make a file caption or notation you may enter it there. Select the browse button and select the file you wish to upload. Select the Add File button. You will see just below the header your uploaded file and have the option to delete it. When finished Select the Done Adding Files button and you will be returned to your post. Now the weird part. You will not see your uploads on this screen but you are required to have a subject and body in your post. Select the submit button and your uploads will appear in the post.You can not add images as a reply.Depending on the settings by the admin for file sizes your upload, if below the setting in size will appear, If the size is above the setting size it will display as a link that you can select to open it.

				Summary Permissions are a very powerful method to distribute unique user permissions to individuals. When used in conjunction with the Groups feature in UBB you can just about do anything you want. The only issue with this is the more complicated you make the groups and permissions the harder it is to keep track of them. Permissions for forums, site and control panel are assigned to groups not users per say. So you would create the groups then assign permissions to the groups then assign users to the groups. In this case you assign group permissions to each individual forum. This allows you to assign what groups can see or use what forum as well as what features they are allowed to use in each forum.Forum Permissions Login to your board as a admin.

				What Is Covered Summary Creating a Custom Island Editing a Custom Island Default Code Examples Example 1 Using PHP and HTML Example 2 Site Links Navigation Menu Example 3 Image with Embedded Link Example 4 Upcoming Events MySQL Query Example 5 Detect Login Example 6 Random ImageSummaryWithin UBB.threads exists a feature called Custom Islands and they're a great method of displaying content that doesn't necessarily relate to the forum software itself.  You can Create unlimited Islands. Use them in your portal page as well as your main forum as side islands. Use them externally on a non ubb page or add them to your header or footer. Use them as a custom island insert between the first and second post in a forum. Add php code and or html code on each one.Some people experience difficulties in creating Custom Islands however once you understand the system it is relatively simple.  For this article we will deal only with creating a custom island, not using it with the features mentioned above.Creating a Custom IslandTo get started in creating a Custom Island is to open the Control Panel within UBB.threads and navigate to the Custom Islands link in the Portal settings section.  From here either select the Edit link to the right of an existing Custom Island or create one with the Add Additional Custom Island tab at the bottom of this page.Editing a Custom IslandOn this page you'll see several fields that you can edit Name  This appears as the header for the Custom Island's Portal Box.  Your entry here will appear as the header for that island. Cache Time  In Minutes. If zero is specified, the body of this custom box will be static, ie. never updated. This setting would be used for things like links, banner ads, etc. If you enter 1 minute then the island would be rebuilt every minute. Always Build  With this option checked, this island will always be built even if it's not used in your portal. This would allow you to use the island elsewhere on your site, such as a page that doesn't get built through UBB.threads. You an also use it in your UBB.threads HTML Includes or enter the text within a template. Body  This field contains the PHP code or HTML for the custom box. body contains the actual content that should be printed in the custom box.Most people experience difficulties with the creation of their Custom Islands with the Bodyb section.  Below we list the defaults so you can easily restore the island to what came with the stock UBB.threads install.There are two sections within bBody, an area for PHP and a separate area for HTML.  You will need to keep these sections separate, and you must enter your HTML between the EOF lines otherwise you'll be presented with an error versus working code.  If you're attempting to insert 3rd party code, it may have to be separated to work with the Custom Island formatting.Do not delete any of the default code when editing the Island.Default Code PHP CODE HERE, IF NECESSARY  DO NOT CHANGE THE LINE BELOW body

				DatesReleased January 27th, 2015Notesv7.5.9 was written by James Corthell Gremelin, UBBDev, VNC Web Services and Isaac DeCoursey id242, id242.com.This release is primarily a code cleanup release. There are a few muchneeded fixes to the layout within the admin section and the overall general layout of how the forums are displayed.Much of the code now has standardized headers across all files.In order to lower the install footprint even more, all of the blank and  end if comments have been stripped. Multiple lines have had trailing spaces stripped. Groupedspaces have been converted to tabs. Basically, there has been a lot of cleaning up put in to each file.There have been numerous corrections made to the English language files.And finally, some longstanding bugs have been squashed.First and most importantly about this release, the UPGRADE_CHANGES.txt and LANGUAGE_CHANGES.txt 100 lines list all the fileslines with major and minor changes. Roughly 720 files have been touched and cleaned up. This cleanup and standardization of the software code should help UBB.threads move forward. It was a huge job and one that was obviously put off for many releases.Changelog INSTALL The installer now tells you on the first page, which version of UBB.threads you are about to install if you copied over all the required files. INSTALLCSS, STYLES All CSS sizes and colors have now been standardized. These corrections affect the installerupgrader program and new installs of UBB.threads.

For example goldenrod, dodgerblue, green are now correctly represented as daa520, 0080ff and 008000 in the css files.

STYLESADMIN.css Cleaned up. From 11,448 bytes to 11,244 bytes STYLESCOMMON.css Cleaned up and compressed. From 1,423 to 1,259 bytes. This file is called with every page that is viewed on your forums. The smaller it is, the better. MULTIPLEINDEX.html In previous builds this was a ZEROBYTE empty file. The problems with that were that some FTP programs didn't know how to transfer these files. Also, some overzealous System Cleaners would delete these files. This has been solved by adding content to them. They are now a basic page that when viewed, forwards to the root of the domain. MULTIPLELANGUAGES, TEMPLATES This update also introduces necessary changes for moving forward to full utf8 character encoding support. Having having iso88591 or a random character encoding style may leave your site open to XSS attacks.If you would like to utilize the corrected styles which only include updated names, font size corrections and proper hex codes for colors you can import the three files 1.txt, 2.txt, 3.txt from installstyles directory.1. Go to Control Panel  Styles2. Choose the Import Style bottomtab.3. Click the Browse button4. Navigate to the installstyles directory on your local computer.5. Choose 1.txt, 2.txt, or 3.txt.6. Click ContinueDo this for each of the three txt files listed above.Take note that these files will need to be available on your local computer as the editor will not look for files on the system.You will then need to remove the original styles listed in the abovequoted changelog.Don't forget to set your Default style and click the Update Styles button after an import of the new styles.NOTES New installs can ignore this  it's automatically done during the new install process.

				SummaryThese extra tools are available to you to facilitate the administration of your UBB message board.Content RebuilderContent Rebuilder Tab Rebuild Posts Rebuild Topics Rebuild Forums Rebuild Post Counts Rebuild Signatures Rebuild Private MessagesPruning Scripts Prune Orphaned Private TopicsCustom Tag EditorDatabase ToolsUBB includes several database tools to allow you to perform common functions without the need for a database manager.Information TabThe Information Tab displays a list of the UBB tables currently in your database, as well as basic information about the tables.SQL Command TabThe SQL Command Tab allows you to execute a SQL command on your database, and store that command for future use. Note using this function requires knowledge of SQL. If you do not have a working knowledge of SQL, please back up your database tables first.Backup Tables TabThe Backup Tables function offers you the ability to back up your UBB database tables individually or to back up all of the UBB tables at once. Before the list of database tables is available to you, you must configure a storage directory for your backup files. To do this, create a directory on your server, outside of the webroot, where you'd like to store the backups. Give this directory full permissions 0777 on Unix. Add the path to this directory to the Backup Storage Directory field. When the test passes use the link below the field to test, click the Submit button. Upon refreshing, the list of tables will be displayed. Always close your board before running any backup actions on your database. To close your forum, toggle the Close Board setting on the General tab of your Primary Settings section. To backup a table, select the table and click Submit. To backup the entire database, select All Tables and click Submit. This may take a while don't click the button twice. Clear CacheUBB relies on the caching of certain data for performance improvement. Clearing your cache is not normally necessary, as the cache is set to expire at regular intervals. If the need arises to expire your cache manually, you can do so using the button here.PHP InfoAt times during your use of UBB, it may be necessary for you or for UBB Support to review your PHP configuration file. The PHPInfo tool will allow you to easily view the contents of the file from your browser. This tool will show you the details of the current version, memory allocations and configuration of PHP running on your server.

			<description>
			<![CDATA[
				What Is Covered Summary Location API Key Limitations Fields Protection Levels Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Troubleshooting Requesting Removal Too Many QueriesSummaryThe Stop Forum Spam feature originated as a modification for the 7.5 series of UBB.Threads by Gizmo and can be found here the codebase that the official feature is based loosely off of us the 0.5 release which was created specifically to be added to the official release.Stop Forum Spam itself is 3rd party project with the goal of identifying and denying spammers either human or bot access to forum and blog software.LocationThe Stop Forum Spam settings can be located in the control panelControl Panel  Master Settings  Primary Settings  Stop Forum Spam TabAPI KeyAn API Key is required only if you'd like to submit spammers back to the Stop Forum Spam database to aid the community.  To obtain a key you'll need to register on their forums here then go to their API Keys page.  It is highly recommended that you sign up for a key as it doesn't take much time at all to do and you can aid the community which is helping you keep your forums spam free.While signing up for an API key you'll notice two check boxes, Public and Reportable, they mean Public  By checking the box marked Public next to each API key, your site will be linked from our Contributors page. This is completely optional, and will only show your site linked from our page along with how many entries you've submitted. No other information will be public, and the default option is off. Reportable  If you check Reportable then this will allow us, under very strict control, to provide an ISP with your forum IP number so that they can track down spammers. This often is the only way that some providers can track down spammers when they use NAT gateways almost all in Russian and Poland. NO other details will ever be released.LimitationsThere is only a small handful of caveat's to using the Stop Forum Spam feature, for one there are only 20k lookups allowed per day previously this limit was 20k lookup in a 1 month period.  For a second, in rare instances the Stop Forum Spam service may experience a hiccup and be offline for a small period of time.Fields Enable Stop Forum Spam  Enable the function of this feature, if disabled then it will not protect your forum from spammers. Stop Forum Spam APIKEY  This is your key obtained from the API Key section above. Spam Protection Level  See Below.Protection LevelsYou have four choices Manual initial setting, SemiAuto, Auto with message to Registrant and Auto with silent Fail. Each have their pros and cons.Level 1This will allow you to check users in member management and via the edit user pages.Level 2Does the same as Level 1 and checks the registration queue and the approval screen and flags bad emails and ip addresses but allows registrations relies on registration queue.Level 3Does the same as Level 2 however alerts the user as to any specified error from the database.Level 4Does the same as Level 3 however does not alert the user to a specified error designed to trick spam signups into thinking their signup went through.Expanding FunctionalityThere is a thread at UBBDev discussing adding Stop Forum Spam to several other sections on your forums, including the login page to detect Sleeper Spammers here.TroubleshootingThere are some possible problems that we're going to cover below.Requesting RemovalUsers may request to be removed from the Stop Forum Spam Database here.Too Many QueriesIt's possible that other users on the same IP as you are doing similar searches which can be common on a shared hosting environment, you can either move to a new host, buy an IP from your ISP for SSL if they require reasoning, or try a different Stop Forum Spam host or IPIn libsuser.inc.php FindsfsUrl  httpwww.stopforumspam.comapiReplace the URL with a port assfsUrl  httpwww.stopforumspam.com81apiOr a different host, such ashttpus.stopforumspam.orgapihttpapi.stopforumspam.orgapiAs stated in the Stop Forum Spam posting both of these hosts workwww.stopforumspam.comus.stopforumspam.orgOn the PortsHTTP 80, 81, 7777SSL 443, 4443

			<description>
			<![CDATA[
				SummaryThe Portal page function is a unique tool that allows you to build an introductory page to your message board using snippets of text and information from posts, users, etc. When enabled, the Portal is the main page of your message board, though a user can navigate to the Forum List from the Portal, and vice versa, at any time.The Portal is comprised of islands, each island containing a kind of data. It is easy for you to customize the sort order and location of your displayed data by rearranging the islands.before the Portal will display on your UBB, you must first enable it in the Portal Settings area of your control panel.Portal LayoutThe Portal is made up of three columns the Left Column, the Right Column and the Main Column. Data pulled from your News Forum will be displayed in the Main Column. All other islands will be arranged in the Right or Left columns as you determine in the control panel.UBB features eight default data islands. Here is a brief description of each type Search  the Search Island allows you to include a keyword search box on your Portal as well as a shortcut to the Advanced Search function. Who's Online  Who's Online displays a list of users that are currently browsing your forums. You can control the interval at which the cache expires in the Portal Settings area of your control panel. Newest Members  the Newest Members island displays a list of the five most recently registered users, as well as the total number of registered users. Public Calendar  the Public Calendar island shows the community calendar. You can control the interval at which the cache expires in the Portal Settings area of your control panel. Private Calendar  the Private Calendar island shows a list of your own private calendar entries. Shout Box  Shout Box provides a fun opportunity for users to post a oneoff message that doesn't necessarily have to relate to any conversation. All comments are stored inline, with a link to the author's name, and administrators and moderators can delete individual comments as necessary. Top Posters  the Top Posters island displays a list of the users with the highest post counts. You can control the interval at which the cache expires and the number of users displayed in the Portal Settings area of your control panel. Forum Stats  the Forum Stats island presents a list of statistics about your message board including the number of forums, registered users, total number of topics and posts stored and the date and time at which the board had the most people online at one time. You can control the interval at which the cache expires in the Portal Settings area of your control panel. UBB allows you to create up to ten Post Islands and ten Custom Islands. As you create these islands, they will become available in the Portal Layout area of your control panel. To learn more about these island types, see the Post Islands and Custom Islands sections of this guide.UBB also offers you the ability to use any of the portal islands outside of your Portal. To do this, click the External Use link for the island you wish to use and follow the instructions for placing the island elsewhere on your website. If you wish to use an island on your website, but not on the Portal Page, choose to Hide them from both columns, and then check the Always Build option. This will cause the application to create the island for use elsewhere, without displaying it on the Portal Page. Note The Private Calendar is not available for use outside of the portal.Portal SettingsThe basic setting toggles for the Portal function are stored here. To enable the Portal page on your site, you'll need to first toggle the Enable the Main Portal Index page setting and select a forum to act as a news forum, from which the Portal will draw announcements and other important info. You may specify multiple forums from which to pull news and announcements for the main page.The Portal ignores user groups, so anyone will be able to read the items displayed regardless of their permissions.The Portal Settings page also gives you the option of allowing users to turn off the right or left column displayed on the portal page. This ability is especially helpful to users using a lower resolution.Post IslandsIn addition to the default data islands, UBB allows you to create up to ten post islands. Each individual post island will display a list of posts according to criteria you determine in the island's settings. If you wish to use an island on your website, but not on the Portal Page, check the Always Build option. This will cause the application to create the island for use elsewhere, without displaying it on the Portal Page.Once you've created the post island, you can arrange its display on your Portal Page in the Portal Layout section of your control panel. Alternately, you can include the island on other pages of your website. To learn more about this, see the Portal Layout section of this guide.Gallery Islands In addition to the default data islands and Post Islands, UBB allows you to create up to ten Gallery Islands. Each individual gallery island will display recent thumbnails of images according to criteria you determine in the island's settings. If you wish to use an island on your website, but not on the Portal Page, check the Always Build option. This will cause the application to create the island for use elsewhere, without displaying it on the Portal Page.Once you've created the gallery island, you can arrange its display on your Portal Page in the Portal Layout section of your control panel. Alternately, you can include the island on other pages of your website. To learn more about this, see the Portal Layout section of this guide.Custom Islands In addition to the default data islands, UBB allows you to create pretty much unlimited custom islands. Unlike post islands, which contain posts pulled from your message board, custom islands contain custom HTML that you enter. These islands are especially effective for including announcements, forum rules, tips, ads like Google AdSense etc. If you wish to use an island on your website, but not on the Portal Page, check the 'Always Build' option. This will cause the application to create the island for use elsewhere, without displaying it on the Portal Page.Once you've created the post island, you can arrange its display on your Portal Page in the Portal Layout section of your control panel. Alternately, you can include the island on other pages of your website. To learn more about this, see the Portal Layout section of this guide.Front EndSome information about the frontend of the portal needs to be added here

If you have ImageMagick 6 or GD2 with FreeType support you will also find an option to enable CAPTCHA for registrations here as well.Registration Screen TabThis allows you to control which profile fields are displayed, hidden or required on the new user's registration page. Five custom fields have been made available for your use. You may title these fields to your liking. At this time, radio buttons and checkboxes cannot be added to custom fields.Reserved Names TabIt's likely that there are some usernames you wouldn't want to allow users to register  perhaps to avoid impersonation of authority figures or otherwise. You can designate reserved names to prevent users from using these as usernames or display names.To enter your names in the Reserved Names field, enter one name per line, using only the Enter key  do not use spaces. To reserve a full name, type the full name on one line of the field  a space can be used to separate two pieces of one name for instance Community Admin would need to have a space between the two, if you wanted to reserve the whole name with the space included. To censor any name that begins or ends with a certain string, use wildcard matching with the wildcard . For examplea.min would match adminad. would match any word beginning with ad.min would match any word ending with minAge Verification TabThe age verification function allows your site to prevent users under a certain age from registering. The Child Online Privacy Protection Act COPPA compliancy terms require parental permission for a child under the age of 13 to access a website. Certain sites may wish to require that users be over the age of 18 to access their content. The age verification tool will allow you to set the minimum age required to register, and determine whether or not you will allow users under a minimum age to register with a parental consent form.if you choose to allow younger users to register with parental consent, you will need to supply your own parental consent form.If you'd like to learn more about Privacy and the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, check out httpwww.ftc.govbcpconlineedcamskidzprivacybiz.htm This Page.Profile SettingsAvatars TabAn avatar is a small image that a user can select to represent themselves in their posts. The image will display to the left of the post, just under the user's display name. You can control the various settings regarding use of avatars here, including allowing users to upload their own avatars or to use remotely hosted avatars.Stock avatar images have been included for use by you and your users, but you can also upload your own. You can learn more about uploading your own avatars in the Images  Icons section of this guide.Member Titles TabMember Titles are granted to users according to post count. As a user's post count increases, heshe will be promoted in member title. Default member titles and corresponding post counts have been provided, but you may wish to modify these to suit the culture of your message board. Custom Member Titles can also be granted to users on an individual basis. These titles are modified in the user's profile in the control panel. To learn more about editing a user's profile from the control panel, see the Editing a User's Profile section of this guide.Member ManagementViewEdit Members TabTo view or edit a member, you'll first need to search for them. The Basic Search Options section will allow you to search for specific users based on basic information, but you can build more complex search queries using the criteria available in the Advanced Search Options section.Once your search is complete, you have the option of viewing or modifying user records from the search results screen. You'll see a snapshot view of relevant member information in the search results, but to view a user's profile, you can click on hisher hyperlinked display name.

To perform any of these actions, select the users using the checkbox to the left, then select an action from the Action dropdown.Registration Queue TabWhen registration moderation is enabled, new registrations will require an administrator's manual approval before being granted membership. To enable the Member Moderation Queue, toggle the setting on the Basic Options tab of the Registration Settings area of your control panel.If you have chosen to use registration moderation and users await approval in the queue, you have the option to approve or decline the user, as well as to resend the verification email. Optionally, you can leave them in the queue by selecting the No Action radio button.Display Name Changes TabAs administrator, you can determine whether or not users can make display name changes, and if such changes require administrative approval. When display name changes require an administrator's approval, requests will appear in the Display Name Changes queue here. To require administrative approval on display name changes, enable the Allow Display Name Changes function in your Feature Settings  General tab, choosing the Yes, but all changes must be approved by an Admin. option.Ban Lists TabYou may wish to ban certain IP addresses or email addresses from accessing your message board. To do this, enter the IP address or email address into the appropriate field. Place each entry on a separate line, using only the Enter key to separate entries  do not use spaces. You can use the  symbol as a wildcard in either IP addresses or email addresses. For instance, if I want to ban all IP addresses within a certain range, I could accomplish that with this65.124.This would effectively ban all IP addresses beginning with 65.124.

				Bug Fixes Fixed a couple of bugs with the Private Message Quota. Fixed a bug with the maximum file upload size when this was specified in bytes in the php.ini file. Having the same path for avatars and attachments would cause some issues with files being overwritten. Put in a check to make sure it doesn't allow both to be the same. Fixed a bug when searching through Subscriptions. If a filter was applied to the search it wouldn't carry over to the other pages of the search results. Fixed an issue with the mass mailer and sending via BCC where not all users would get the email. Fixed a few issues with the Online Now Portal Box where it wasn't always updating properly. Fixed a couple of issues concerning sticky topics. A bug allowed them to be moved which would cause several issues, like being listed in the wrong forum, multiple forums, etc. Fixed the bug, and also updated the Forum Rebuild content rebuilder so it will fix any that had already been moved. Fixed a bug with Moderators not being able to set custom titles even when their permissions allowed them to do so.

				Bug Fixes Using a fontsize not on the list of valid sizes would return a color closing tag. Now the tag just isn't parsed at all, and only the inner text is displayed. It was possible to send private message to users marked as underage when viewing one of their posts. Spaces were not being allowed anywhere within a login name. Changed this so they only aren't allowed at the beginning or end. Users will always be able to view their own profile even if they can't view others profiles. When a user was removed from a group, it wasn't removing the group image associated with that group. Fixed an issue when deleting an unapproved post made by guest users. Fixed a couple of language file issues when banned users returned to the forum. Fixed a few issues with user profile comments. Fixed a few xHTML Compliance Issues.

			<![CDATA[
				Bug Fixes The field to hold the sort order direction for a forum was only set to varchar3 when it needed varchar4 Fixed a parse error with the Print Thread script. Fixed a SQL error when deleting a user. The limit for nested quotes was actually limiting the amount of all markup of a particular type. Group Images were not displaying in private messages. The Who's Online Island will now properly sort by last activity instead of alphabetical. Fixed a javascript bug with the UseExecute links on the Database Command page in the Control Panel. If an integer value was entered into a field and the value started with 0, the 0 would be chopped off when added to the database. If a user canceled their subscription through PayPal it would immediately remove their access from the group. This has been changed so the user will still have access to the group until the original expiration date, since they've already paid for that time. When editing a forum, the forum sort order was defaulting back to Subject instead of Last Post. Some codehtml blocks wouldn't display properly in IE. Fixed a SQL error when mass changing user groups under certain conditions. When a user is over their private topic limit, Administrators will still be able to send them a new PM. When quoting or quick quoting a post made by a guest user, it will insert the proper name if the guest chose something other than Anonymous. Fixed a couple issues when merging posts. When Category Only mode is enabled, the Last Post column wasn't always showing the actual last post.

Removed the general dateslip option and added in an option to set the default sort field and direction for each individual forum, which will allow things like ordering a forum by subject as the default display. Added a new Site Permission of Max Private Topic Length. This allows the admin to set the max number of messages a private topic can contain while still allowing the users in that group to post. Put in an option to use the old style forum search. Fulltext searching will probably be faster on larger forums, however this gives the option to search for shorter words or words that might be ignored using Fulltext searching. It is now possible to add an image for each group. Users belonging to that group will be able to display that image next to their name. If a user belongs to multiple groups, the user can select a single or multiple images to be displayed. Added an option in the Logging Section of the Control Panel to enabledisable referrer logging.

If the poster has the ability to lock a topic in a forum, they will get the option to lock a topic while creating one. It is now possible to reply to global announcements as long as the user has the ability to reply to regular topics. Locking the announcement will make it so it cannot be replied to. Since the Member List can be sorted by Last Online, it will now show when each user was last online. Modified the download script so it will pull images from the browser cache if available instead of redownloading every time. It is now possible to remove a SQL error logfile while viewing it, instead of having to find it in the list again. Thanks to Blaaskaak for the modification. Users will be able to delete comments posted to their own profile. It is now possible for admins to change subscriptions done via PayPal through the Control Panel. This only modifies the UBB.threads data, and might still require editing the subscription through your paypal account as well.Bug Fixes Fixed a couple lingering issues with post tracking and threaded mode. Fixed a bug with global moderators in the domodmanage.php script. Thanks to Blaaskaak for finding and fixing the issue. Fixed an issue with the autourl markup where it wasn't converting the link if it contained 20 or .

				Bug Fixes Some admin scripts wouldn't allow submitting due to lack of a security variable. Moderators could put anything in their custom title without restrictions including HTML. This has been disabled. The offlineonline indicator on the profile status page would only show their current mood, not their current onlineoffline status. Fixed a SQL error with long agent strings in the ONLINE table. Fixed an XHTML compliance issue with the Featured Member island. Fixed the issue with avatars not showing on the Featured Member island. Refixed the issue with multibyte character strings breaking when wordwrapped in the shoutbox and the recent topicpost islands.

The Style Chooser in the footer was missing the Default Style selection.Feature Changes Increased the Positions available for islands on the Portal Layout page from 10 to 100.

				New Features Modified all gallery posts, so when viewing a picture it will give you the ubbcode for the thumbnail, medium and full sized images in the Post Description area. Also now displaying the size and dimensions of the full sized image. Modified the imagefile manager to display the max allowed size of images of files. Added the onlineoffline indicator to the profile pages. When editing forum permissions, you will now be able to see what the max attachment size is set to in php.ini and you will not be able to set a value higher than this for File or Gallery attachments. Added Page Jumpers to the bottom of individual private messages when they are multiple pages long. Added the option for admins to make it so users would be added to the Users group when reaching a certain post count. Previously, this was only available on custom groups. When clicking the Use link on Saved Queries, it will now copy the saved description into the Description text box as well. When a user changes their email in their profile a verification email will be sent to the new address. The account email will not be changed until the user clicks on the verification email. Added blaaskaak's mod that allows you to search for users on the showmembers page, with a slight modification. Instead of just being able to search for users that start with a certain string, it will search for users that have the string anywhere in their username. Added a new Mass Permission Copy page. This allows you to copy the permissions for a single forum to multiple specified forums in one step. Added another default island to show the Top Posters in the Last 30 days in addition to the one that shows over all time. On the Custom Islands Screen, it is now possible to add additional Custom Islands. So the limit is no longer 10 Custom Islands, it's unlimited. The Permission to Delete any posts and Delete Topics have been split up. So Admins will now be able to specify that some moderators will be able to delete posts but not entire topics. The default permission for DELETE TOPICS will be the same as the current DELETE POSTS setting for each group upon upgrade. Added a new option under Feature settings for setting the maximum width for images using the img tag. This uses browser scaling, as a quick way to keep large sized images from distorting the layout. Leaving this option empty will leave the images untouched so they display as they currently do. Added blaaskaak's mod for a Today's Birthday Portal Island. Under Portal Settings there is an option to only include users online within a certain number of days. Added some extra code so this island is only rebuilt at the beginning of each day under normal conditions. It will also rebuild when a new user registers or somebody changes their profile. Added a Featured Member portal island. This rebuilds every hour and selects a random member out of the database that isn't banned. Under Portal Settings there is an option to only include users that have been active in the last certain number of days.Feature Changes Permission to view Active Topics are no longer linked to being able to Search. So the Active Topics menu will be available to all as it was originally intended The New User Island will no longer contain banned users. Modified the header so the common.css file is loaded first and then the specific stylesheet is loaded after so it cascades properly. Modified the gallery code to allow for the .jpeg extension in addition to just .jpg Clicking on a gallery image will now always take you to the image, even if there are new comments for that image. Clicking on the Comments link will still take you to the newest comment. All references of Login Name have been changed to Username. This was done due to the fact that in some places we referred to Username, some Login Name. Since Username is the more common word in applications, we went with it. When the forum is initially loaded, it will check the HTTP_HOST and protocol being used. By default, if this doesn't match the FULL_URL it will redirect the user. There is an option to force the FULL_URL to the current URL the user is accessing the forum from. When an attached image is shown inline with the post it will no longer show the XX downloads next to the inline image. Modified the sort order on the RSS Control Panel screen so it sorts similar to the Forum Summary. When Age Verification is enabled on the registration screen, this will be populated into the User's Birthday Field. They will also get the choice to choose to show their birthday in their profile while registering. Added the gallery directory and subdirectories to the Permission Check screen in the Control Panel.Bug Fixes Moderators were able to reply to any locked topic. Changed this so locked topics can only be replied to by those that have permission to lockunlock topics for that forum. Fixed an issue with the flood control settings not behaving properly for logged in users. When Quick Quoting an Anonymous post the display name was being changed to the placeholder user  DONOTDELETE  Put in some code checks to prevent duplicate moderator entries. Fixed a SQL query error if a user didn't have anything selected for Topics Per Page. Fixed a bug with the Custom Title length check. Updated a couple scripts that were still doing old style permission checks and weren't using the new ones for 7.3. Altered a few SQL queries, so they will no longer result in an error when MySQL is running in Strict mode. Fixed an issue when becoming a user while the board was closed wouldn't allow you to logout. When ordering posts by Username and clicking on nextprevious topic, it would result in a SQL error. Fixed an issue with the check for max number of private message recipients. Banned Users were still receiving emails from Watched ForumsTopicsUsers. Locking a topic pointer would result in a broken topic pointer. Users were able to ignore Global Moderators. When a topic is moved and a pointer is left, the pointer will now retain all of the info, such as views, replies and last poster at the time of the move. When editing a user's homepage from the Admin Control Panel, it would add an extra http at the beginning. When using the group manager it was possible to delete a group even when it had users in it that belonged to no other group. This is no longer possible. When using the group manager it was possible to delete a group that was part of your default user groups. This is no longer possible. When uploading a file or photo that exceeded the max upload size set in php.ini it would appear to upload even though it wouldn't. The user will now get an error stating the file or photo is too large. When editing a single language file, you will now be properly returned to the editor when submitting your changes. When editing a language file after searching for a particular word, you will be properly returned to the search results after submitting your changes. Saved SQL queries will now display line breaks properly in both the saved query list, and the text area when using the saved query. When deleting a user and his posts it will now trigger the rebuild of all forum summary data. Under certain poll settings, users could vote on polls before the poll has actually started. It was possible for an admin to wipe out some config settings if they accidentally went to an update page in their browser history. Added a 'valid_post' variable to all control panel forms, checking for it's existence before updating to prevent this. User Name Colors were not showing on the User List page. Fixed a bug when notification emails were sent out for post approval on fully moderated forums. User Name Colors where not showing in the New Members Island. If a poll has an ending date, and you voted in the poll, you could no longer see the end date. We now display the end date, if there is one, at the bottom of the poll results. Changed a variety of language files to fix grammatical errors, typos, strings no longer needed, etc. Fixed a layout issue with the pagination numbers when viewing the list of a user's posts. When editing a private event, the Type field would default to Public. The breadcrumbs were incomplete on the Notify Post screen. Fixed a few templates that had hardcoded language strings in them instead of pulling from the language files. Fixed a javascript issue when clicking on the Check all button multiple times on the private message screen. CheckUncheck All was not working properly on the Buddies page. Values for Hide from Who's Online on the registration screen were actually reversed. Fixed a path issue with the default Blank forum image when creating a new forum. On some installs, the days,weeks,months,years dropdown was empty on the admin and referer log screen. If the Flat or Threaded option was a required field on the registration screen, it wouldn't show and user's could not register due to all fields not being filled in. If the forum was set to Threaded mode, but the user elected Flat, they would still get redirected to Threaded mode when clicking on the last post on the forum summary page. Language file entries associated with a lower case array key would be dropped when using the Language Editor in the Control Panel. htmlentities was still being used in some of the control panel scripts, namely the Custom Island Editors. This would essentially break multibyte strings when trying to edit Custom Islands. Fixed some logic issues in the permission system. The bug was causing issues such as admins needing to have their posts approved on fully moderated forums even if they were not supposed to. Graemlin shortcuts that contained either  or  would not work properly. It was not possible to logout without accepting the Board Rules. When in threaded mode and clicking on a topic with unread posts, it will now properly take you to the first unread post, instead of just the first post. Fixed a few duplicate FAQ entries. Search Engine Friendly URLs and UTF8 encoding were not playing nicely together, leaving some multibyte characters a mess. Added some exceptions to the make_ubb_url function to handle UTF8 encoding. Modified the user_color function to play nicely with multibyte charsets. Modified the the shoutbox to properly wordwrap multibyte strings. Fixed a few scripts that would result in SQL errors if users didn't have default settings for things like Topics Per Page. If a nonlogged in user tried to go to the MyBuddies page, it would result in a sql error instead of an Access Denied error. When sending a PM to a user who was over their private topic limit, it would just drop them from the recipients instead of giving an error message.General Updates Updated the PHPMailer library 2.0.2. Updated the Smarty library to 2.6.19.

When email verification was turned on, admins would get the wrong user info when being notified of a new user via email. Moderator name colors were not being displayed properly in threaded mode. Added the tmp directory to the permission checker in the control panel. When a member is permanently banned, it wouldn't show the length of the ban when viewing their profile at a later date. Moderators will again get the Edit User link when viewing a user profile if they have permission to Edit Users. Moderators will again be able to approve posts via the control panel if they can approve posts in any forum. Mass emails and Notes on individual post mailings weren't preserving formatting via linebreaks. The language selector at the bottom was showing the directory name and not the actual name chosen for each language. Hovering over some text and choosing a color in the text editor would erase the text in IE. Previewing a style as a guest user was not working properly. Fixed an issue where the shoutbox would stop refreshing for a user if they tried to post an empty shout.

If there is a referring URL it will be logged and admins will be able to view this information via the Control Panel. Teaser Forums added. This will allow you to designate a forum as a teaser forum. These forums will be displayed on the main forum listing page even if the user doesn't have read permissions. If they try to access the forum they will get a message stating that they don't have access. Added 2 new options in the portal layout section. These options will allow the admin to only have the left or right columns display on the main portal page, and not on the actual forum pages. When Guest posting is enabled on a forum, guests will now have the option to choose a username to post under, instead of just 'Anonymous'. This will go through the normal checks and not allow them to use names reserved, in use, too short, too long, etc. Added a new Gallery section to the control panel. Added configuration options, for using GD2 or Imagemagick, max heightwidth for thumbnails, medium sized and full sized images. Also add a image quality setting for thumbnails, medium sized and full sized images.

If a user has permission to view the ReferrerAgent of visitors, there will now be a small info icon next to the name. Hovering over this will display the popup with that content. If there is a referrer, the icon will be clickable which will lead to the actual referring url. Modified the Member management screen to allow for searching on partial IPs for both the Last Post and Registration IP fields. Added a new tmp directory to the UBB.threads directory structure. Any files being uploaded will go here during the posting process, and only moved to the final directory after the post has been submitted. This will keep orphaned attachments out of the final upload directories. Created a new post.tpl template. This template holds the layout of an individual post, including the poster information, subject, body and options such as editreplyetc. Modified the showflatshowthreaded and viewmessage templates and scripts so they now use this template. This change makes it so the look will be consistent throughout all of the scripts and it will be easy to modify without needing to edit multiple templates. Consolidated the showflatshowthreaded scripts and templates into one script and one template. This cuts down on a lot of duplicate code and will make future updates to the script much easier. Existing links to showflatshowthreaded will not change. Changed the onlineoffline indicator to just show the actual mood image, with alttitle text showing onlineoffline. Moved this up next to the username. This makes it so when the user info is on the side it doesn't take up so much vertical space. Removed the page value from all links to showflatshowthreaded. This is now stored in a session variable. Modified the online screen so it will show the forum title along with the actual post a user is looking at. Rewrote the sending screen for private messages to fix some issues with sending private messages to users with certain characters in their usernames while running under various language encoding settings. Added the board title to the subject of emails that are sent out for notifications and watched topics. Since other email notifications send the body of the post, notifications of new private messages will send the post body as well. Rewrote the admin logging routine and now storing the logs in the database. New functions for searching for logs during a certain time period. Also now logging more information. With this change, admin logging will be on by default and will no longer need to be setup in the control panel. Replaced the screen to show all user's posts with a new version. This new version doesn't use the search engine code at all and also has an option to give a view showing all topics the user has started. Thanks to Ian Spence for sharing the code for this. Modified the Active Topics Screen to give an option to show active posts as well, which will show all posts made within the timeframe specified. The board rules will now be displayed when first clicking on the register user link. The user must agree to the rules before being able to get to the next screen where they fill out their actual user information. This will help so people don't miss the rules checkbox. Changed the active topics layout of the posts to be more like what is in use at UBBDev.com, where the body preview always shows. This will fix some problems with the popups under some browsers. Modified the Latest TopicPost Islands to include the poster and time of each post. When upgrading, the upgrade script will now modify all of your existing stylesheets to add default properties for any new classes that have been added. Modified the install routine in how it installs the default stylesheets. Added a new section to the upgrade routine that will check to see if permissions need to be set on any new directoriesfiles. For example, in 7.2 this will check to make sure permissions are set on the new tmp directory as well as the gallery directories. Modified the fileimage attachment process so filenames with multibyte characters won't cause issues. Also, medium and full sized images will now be shown via a script instead of the src linking directly to the image. Modified the fileimage attachment process so filenames with multibyte characters won't cause issues. Also, medium and full sized images will now be shown via a script instead of the src linking directly to the image.Bug Fixes The Show User Avatars setting in Topic Display Options, will now work properly for users that are not logged in. Pointers to moved topics were using the topic creation date instead of the last reply time. Thanks to blaaskaak for the fix. The date shown on the calendar's showday script was wrong when the language was set to something other than english. When the list of user titles was changed it wouldn't update old titles properly when the post count thresholds were reached. Custom Profile fields would not accept a value of 0, instead they would treat this as empty, causing a required fields error if it was a required field. Fixed a variety of bad links on the selectmovethreads and selectprunethreads admin scripts. When only one user title was specified, it would result in a sql error when updating the titles of all users. Pointers to moved topics were appearing in the Recent Topics Island. Added several tab indexes to the posting and pm screens. Thanks to blaaskaak for the fixes. Added some wordwrap code to the Recent TopicPost Islands so it will break words longer than 20 characters. Fixed a problem with the  link in multipage topics resulting in no post being found. Also, if a topic has more than 200 replies, the Show All link will no longer appear. Using php code in the body tag of custom islands would result in a problem when the custom island was edited later. The Active Topics page would sometimes give an incorrect total number of pages depending on what forums the user could actually view.

				Feature Changes Added a email signature to the generic.php language file. This is added to all outgoing emails where 'optout' text can be specified.Bug Fixes Importing styles under certain PHP configurations resulted in nothing being imported. UBB.classic import script was not checking version  properly. All import redirect scripts were not allowing search engine friendly urls to be turned off. RSS template file that was causing the RSS feeds to be unreadable. Top Posters island would not align the post totals properly when certain fonts were used. Mass emailing of members ended up with a SQL error if the email was sent to only a select  of users. Inserting user into the USER_GROUPS table would result in an error if the user's U_Groups field had the user listed in the same group twice. A post that contained an abnormal amount of graemlins would cause the importer to die. Reworked the threads_import script to get around this. Yahoo, AIM and MSN profile fields were mixed up when changed in the user profile. Some servers would set the permissions on user uploaded avatars to 600 which would make them unreadable. Some servers had a javascript issue the way the date was being handled in the calendar. Moving topics from the control panel would result in inaccessible topics if the copy option was used. Another RSS feed problem where certain characters in the feed title were not being escaped properly. Fixed a character encoding issue with quickquotepreviewpost. Altered the code so if you were watching a topic you wouldn't get an email when you made a reply to the topic. Fixed a javascript issue when previewing styles from the style screen. Added a missing language string to adminaddimages.php All redirect scripts had a typo in the search friendly url settings. Fixed a bug when trying to remove multiple users from a certain group in the control panel. Fixed a bug when creatingediting multiforum RSS feeds where you could not set the number of body characters to 0. Fixed a bug with the Advanced Search Button not working when using a different language set. Altered the code to purge cached permissions for a user when they were edited in the control panel. Fixed a bug when TIME_OFFSET was required at registration. Entering 0 would result in a All required fields not filled in error. Fixed the registration page to show the Contact Us form when configured in the control panel. Custom Headers and Footers for individual forums were not working at all. Fixed a bug that would not allow the img tag to be disabled in signatures. When editing a post that was attached to a calendar event, the calendar event data would not be filled in. Turning off the side columns would make the User List menu item disappear from the navigation bar. Fixed a couple bugs related to bad permissions checks on subforums. Fixed a bug with changing user groups where it was looking for an old field name. Fixed a problem with the importer with a couple of the markup codes still trying to use old language strings. Cleaned up a few issues when PHP is set to run in safe_mode. RSS feeds were not being regenerated other than when the admin visited the control panel. Topics tied to a calendar day were disappearing from the calendar when a user edited a reply to the main topic. Stock Avatar selection would not appear in the user's profile unless remote or uploaded avatars were turned on. Enabling topic ratings would result in an extra linebreak on the postlist screen on topics that were more than one page in length. 2 bug fixes related to HTML being sent out in emails when plaintext should be sent. Fixed a variety of grammarspelling issues. Fixed a language string issue and the calendar sometimes showing abbreviated month names. Added a missing anchor reference to emails sent out for Watch Lists. This will make it so you will scroll to the actual post the email is for instead of just at the top of the page. Deleting a topic would not delete it from the CALENDAR_EVENTS table if it was marked as a calendar event. Line breaks were being counted as part of the length of a user's signature. Fixed a missing text string when birthday selection was turned on in the registration screen. Alternate sets of forum images attached to a style were not being used. It would always default to the base style's forumimage set. Edited By was not showing in threaded mode. Finished cleaning up the language strings. Quite a few old strings were still in the files even though they were no longer being used. So, went through all of the scripts and language files to clean this up. The word Preview was hardcoded into several templates and not coming from the language files. When manually adding a user to send a private topic to, the javascript would add the user twice. Fixed another hardcoded language string. This one in the login template. Fixed a language string issue with the newuser script. Reworked the Forgot Password function so it would always lookup by Username first in case a user filled in both fields and had multiple accounts under a single email. Fixed a small html problem with libsubbthreads.inc.php Fixed a javascript issue when expandingcollapsing a category. The browser would always scroll to the top after expanding or collapsing. Fixed a css issue with the control panel css file. Fixed several problems with polls that had a starting time or where a user must vote before viewing the results. Fixed a problem with the language editor not stripping slashes under some configurations. Approving users wasn't appending to the admin log properly. Fixed a mass mailer bug that was sending out to people that didn't want to receive admin emails. Any time a custom portal box was edited it would add a linebreak to the end of the file. Fixed a bug with the Always Build island not always building portal boxes.

Added a config option to turn user ratings on and off. Reworked all of the templates to use a table open and close wrapper. This allows for modifying the look of the whole site just by changing the openclose table wrapper instead of editing every template. Added in a pagination routine for the postlist.php screen for threads with many pages. ie. 1 2 3 4  10 11 12 instead of 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Reorganized the edit config screen into sections with links to jump to each section. Changed the front page to show the subject of the last post along with who posted it for each forum. Changed the way new posts are flagged on the postlist screen. Instead of using 2 different colored icons, it now uses a different colored table cell for the new post along with bolding of the line. This makes it so admins can upload new post icons of any color.

Thanks to Dave_L. Added in a new admin function to view or delete the MySQL error log files. Added in an option to log any activity in the admin section that actually changes something.

Instead there will be a toggle on the main forum listing page that will allow users to display all forums or only their favorite forums. Added a graphic next to each category title that will allow users to collapse or expand entire categories. Redid the category order function. Now the numbers assigned do not have to be consecutive. This will allow users to add categories add a later date that will fit in between current categories. Added a reply with quote option. Removed the option to have replies to your post emailed to you. Replaced this with a profile setting to have any posts in one of your favorite threads emailed to you. This will allow any registered user to subscribe to a thread, which is much more flexible than the previous setting. Updated admindeleteuser.php to remove all favorite and reminder entries for a user when they are deleted. Updated approvepost.php and admindoapproveposts.php to send out the emails for favorite entries when posts are approved. Updated deletepost.php and admindoexpirethreads.php to remove all favorite and reminder entries. Added a new option when moving a thread to leave a pointer at the old location of the thread. Updated domovepost and domovethread to ensure that users who have a thread marked as a favorite still have access after a thread has been moved. Added an option to add a thread to your favorites when posting or replying. Added an option to include a reason for moving a thread when leaving a pointer to the new location. Made the Favorite thread and Reminders links into toggles. This means clicking once will add the threadpost to your favoritesreminders. Clicking again will remove it.

Admins can use a custom cookie prefix. Again this is so that more than one board can be run per domain. Admins can add more or remove graemlins via the admin panel. Admins can add more or remove message icons via the admin panel. Attachments now use a download script rather than direct linking to the attached file. There is now a counter to show how many times an attachment has been downloaded. Added a new time format option HHMM DDMMYYYY. Made all subject text boxes the same size. Made a change so the temporary password field is always cleared out on successful login. Added an image next to the subject of posts that are sticky. Thanks to Lisa_P for the image.

Any additional installations require an additional license.  Updates are available for 1 year after initial purchase after this timeframe, to aid in development costs, you must renew your access to updates see the purchase link below for further information.  You cannot freely provide this script to others without written permission from the author. Pricing 80 Purchase Here Support Support is available on the UBBDev thread 7.x UBB.Sitemaps.UBB.Sitemaps is a script that we created due to some reported search engine discovery issues with the way that URLs where initially written in the UBB.threads product that some users where reporting.  Not to mention that a lot of users had moved from previous or competing products and wanted to see their URLs immediately discovered in the Google, Bing, Yahoo, or other search engines.This script aids in the discovery portion of search engine crawling instead of waiting and hoping that your URL's get crawled, an XML Sitemap alerts Google or any crawlers which allow sitemaps as to what URLs exist on your forums, so they know what to crawl based on what you tell them.Most search engines will take your feed once a week or so and run it through to determine new URLs, on a Google Search Console account, you can browse exactly how many URLs have been included, as well as when the last time they have hit your site.Please note however, that Google will still crawl your site and try to perform its own discovery, so please do not use a robots.txt entry to block it as it must be able to crawl the content provided in the sitemap in order to populate your entries.The configuration options allow you to specify which type of sitemap you wish to use and whether you wish to plugin threaded or flat view. The sitemap type and view type can both be set either by hard coding the appropriate variable or via a URL string.File ListingYour install archive will contain several files, namely cachesitemap  A blank directory to show the proper nesting for the default cache directory. csssitemap.css  A CSS Stylesheet for XML Feeds. readme.txt  A brief readme which gives basic tips on getting started, and a link here to the full documentation. robots.txt  A listing of instructions for crawlers which support robots.txt see below for a listing of the supplied instructions. sitemap.xsl  An XSL Style. ubb.sitemap.php  The UBB.Sitemaps script itself.Supplied robots.txt InstructionsThough not required, we recommend applying the items in the robots.txt file in the attached folder so that Google and other search engines do not attempt to crawl areas in which they commonly get trapped.

Please note that at times there may be some strict server configurations which won't work well with these options, your mileage may vary.The cache option will build a copy of the output and store it for a defined period of time, any user accessing the file during this period will be served the cached file vs the live file with the exception of the initial visiting user who will be served the live file.The exception header option will allow you to set a date in the future when the content of the file should change, we default this to 24 hours so the client should cache this file on their side for this time frame.To utilize caching you will need a cachesitemap folder from the script instance that is chmodded 777.The SHA1 hash of the test URL for the cache directory is e0f94273f1b777a695d0f53fd7acc4c111942675.DemonstrationThe UBB.Sitemaps script offers several sitemap generation styles, these are UBB.Sitemaps  ASP Sitemap UBB.Sitemaps  Link Sitemap UBB.Sitemaps  RSS Sitemap UBB.Sitemaps  Sitemap Index UBB.Sitemaps  Text Sitemap UBB.Sitemaps  XML SitemapIn v0.9 we introduced the ability to style your XML and Test output pages which make them more human readable and functional in the case of the XSL style UBB.Sitemaps  Style CSS UBB.Sitemaps  Style XSLInstall InstructionsOpen the ubb.sitemap.php file in a plain text editor such as notepad or EditPlus and adjust the variables for your environment all of the settings include comments which give information on the setting as well as the defaults.The default configuration settings will generate an XML sitemap which will be fine for any search engines that support them Google and Bing most notably.After customizing the script settings you'll need to upload the script to your web root in order for Google or other search engines to read that the sitemap belongs to your domain, the sitemap generator must be in the html document root httpswww.example.com.Usage InstructionsWe've built the sitemap generator to be quite flexible, there are several options and parameters that you can customize for your live feed of your sitemap for numerous uses scenarios as Sitemap Types 1XML, 2Text, 3HTML, 4RSS, 5ASP, 6SitemapIndex, 7Forum Listing, 8UBB.threads Pages, 9UBB.threads Reviews, 10UBB.threads Events Use SE Friendly or Search Engine Optimized URLs Default 1Yes Use ShowFlat or ShowThreaded. Default 0ShowFlat Offsetting links to break up large forum sitemaps into manageable chunks. Valid values are from 050000 Default 10000And all variables can output either as default by directly accessing ubb.sitemap.php or by defining a parameter in the URL, such asGoogle would be happiest with httpsexample.comubb.sitemap.phptype6se1 or httpsexample.comubb.sitemap.phptype1se1 That's type6 for a Sitemap Index or type1 for XML, and se1 for SEOSpider Friendly URL's.  We recommend that everyone just default to using a SitemapIndex as it futureproof's your site as a Sitemap can only have up to 50k links however, loading the ceiling maximum of data, to be loaded at once, can cause strain on your server. Using a SitemapIndex will break your Sitemap up into more manageable chunks.As this script pulls data live from the database, it is unwise to link directly to the various output options unless it's being fed into search engines as there is a potential for a lot data output.  We recommend always using the caching option.To test to ensure it is working before providing the feed URL's to search engines, please load your sitemap generator with the following parameters as the preview uses a small limit it shouldn't take longer than a couple of seconds to executehttpsexample.comubb.sitemap.phptype0se1The sitemap index only works with XML sitemap feeds based off of the sitemaps.org standard as these are only valid under XML sitemaps they display the output according to that standard only. To grab the sitemap index should you have the need to utilize the offset option please access it ashttpsexample.comubb.sitemap.phptype6se1If you are _NOT_ going to use a SitemapIndex and want to load the entire dataset at once, you'll want to change the offsets option to not utilize them, otherwise it'll load the amount of data up to the default offset chunk size of 10k.SettingsConfiguration Settingsconfconnection  1  0Set DB Info below 1Pull data from UBB.threads Config.confdomain    The domain that your forum is installed on Ex example.com if blank will read the _SERVERHTTP_HOST PHP variable recommended.confextension  1  Use HTML extension if the UBB.threads config is included it will override this setting 0No, 1Yesconffolder  forum  The folder that your UBB.threads is located in, Example varwwwhtmlforums would be forums without trailing slashconffrequency  4  0Never, 1Always, 2Hourly, 3Daily, 4Weekly, 5Monthly, 6Yearly, 9No Displayconffriendly  1  Use SE FriendlySEO Links  0No, 1Yesconflastmod  1  Display last modified time  0No, 1Yesconfoffsets  1  0No, 1Yes if SitemapIndex See Type Aboveconfpath    The web path that your UBB.threads is located in, Example httpsexample.comforums would be forums without trailing slashconfrewrite  0  Respect Apache Rewrite Rules 0No, 1Yesconfssl  1  0Native based on url accessed, 1Always Show SSL URLsconfstylexml  2  0No, 1CSS sitemap.css, 2XSL sitemap.xslconfstylename  sitemap.xsl  The name of the sitemap style an example csssitemap.css and sitemap.xsl are supplied.conftimezone  AmericaLos_Angeles  Your localized timezone default AmericaLos_Angeles.

Please note that using GZip has been known to cause some minor CPU load, however most virtual hosting servers should be more than antiquate to allow this option.Human Readable PermalinksIn v1.0 we added the ability to specify human readable permalinks.  These links are programmed into both sitemap scripts UBB.Sitemaps and UBB.Membermaps and function via Apache Rewrite Rules.  These rules go into your .htaccess file if supported by your web server and will redirect the following urlshttpsexample.comsitemap_index.xml  Sitemap Index page  ubb.sitemap.phptype6se1httpsexample.comsitemap_listing.xml  Forum Listing page  ubb.sitemap.phptype7se1httpsexample.comsitemap_members.xml  UBB.Sitemap Member Listing  ubb.membermap.phptype6se1httpsexample.comsitemap_testing.xml  UBB.Sitemaps Test Page  ubb.sitemap.phptype0se1httpsexample.comubb_membermap  Offset Pageshttpsexample.comubb_membermap.html  Offset Pageshttpsexample.comubb_sitemap  Offset Pageshttpsexample.comubb_sitemap.html  Offset Pages UBB.threads Sitemap Apache RulesRewriteEngine OnRewriteBase RewriteRule sitemap_index.xml ubb.sitemap.phptype6se1 LRewriteRule sitemap_listing.xml ubb.sitemap.phptype7se1 LRewriteRule sitemap_members.xml ubb.membermap.phptype6se1 LRewriteRule sitemap_testing.xml ubb.sitemap.phptype0se1 LRewriteRule ubb_membermap09 ubb.membermap.phptype1se1offset1 LRewriteRule ubb_membermap09.html ubb.membermap.phptype1se1offset1 LRewriteRule ubb_sitemap09 ubb.sitemap.phptype1se1offset1 LRewriteRule ubb_sitemap09.html ubb.sitemap.phptype1se1offset1 L UBB.threads Sitemap Apache RulesHuman Readable XML StylingIn v0.9 we added the ability to style the output of XML feeds so that a human can better read and interact with your sitemap.  This is controlled with the confstylexml and confstylename variables within the Configuration Settings.You can opt to use a simple CSS Stylesheet or a XSL Style which was supplied by id242 the XSL file is what we recommend using as it makes the XML output interactive.  A demo of this can be found in the Demonstration section above.SubmissionsNot all search engines will check back automatically to recheck your sitemap in fact, we've only noticed that Google will recheck on its own. You'll need to check back with other search engines to resubmit your sitemap if they do not autocheck it for you.We recommend providing the following URL to search engines that support XML sitemapshttpsexample.comubb.sitemap.phptype1se1offsets0Those switches, as mentioned in the Usage Instructions will generate an XML sitemap with Search Engine FriendlySEO URLs while opting not to use Offsets.UBB.threads Version  URLsURLs and associated variables have changed several times in the coarse of UBB.threads, below is some brief information for the confversion variable0  v7.0  v7.2.2  Original style, non Search Engine friendly, URLs.1  v7.3  v7.4.2  Global Moderators where introduced in 7.3, which changed the guest user to user 5.2  v7.5 Series  v7.5 introduces SE Friendly URLs, which provides the topic title within the link itself.3  v7.6 Series  v7.6.0 introduces Search Engine Optimized SEO URLs, which provides the topic title within the link itself, and optimized the display for.There was a security issue in previous releases, which was patched in v7.5.8 which updated how URLs are written within UBB.threads however, this patch was written poorly and introducedallowed characters which are not valid in a URL see RFC3986.  As such, these URLs are not, and will never be, supported by this script as all parts of this script, much like us, remain standards compliant.  Users with unsupported versions v7.5.8v7.5.9 can opt to install id242's modification Better URL Sanitation for SEO 7.6.0 URLs utilize this same codeChangelog20250425 April 25th, 2025  some changes between live PHP8 upgrades in the 2020 releases are streamlined into this one changelog Added the ability to hardcode a URL in your sitemaps, this uses the new domain and path variables. Added New configuration variables to specify if you'd like to display the .html extension, last modified time, respect the supplied Apache rewrite rules, hardcode SSL urls vs what is detected on how the script is accessed. Added the ability to load sitemap data from VNC Web Services companion scripts UBB.threads Pages, UBB.Reviews, and UBB.Events Added logic display an error if your UBB.threads configuration cannot be found in the specified folder variable Changed supplied documentation to reflect newer web standards and domain changes since 2010's releases. Changed the code to properly output the URL when specifying a full path on the folder variable. Changed some of the debug mode coding. Changed more PHP8 coding and cleaned up several queries.20191222 December 22nd, 2019 Added Debug mode ubb.sitemap.phpdebug1 will allow you to see your UBB.Sitemap settings and a forum overview in an easy to read page. Added A new version check will display a version notice on the debug page. Added A switch has been added for the beta group which will display if you're running a beta release or not.  This will allow the new version check to be able to display notices for final builds. Added The UBB.threads Pages display respects the private mode status within UBB.threads Pages. Added Introduced basic mobile compatibility on HTML generated pages type3 Fix Fixed a bug in UBB.threads Pages detection.20190818 August 18th, 2019 Added Support for UBB.threads Pages Changed HTML Sitemaps no longer build in a table, instead they will build as a listing of links with a break Changed Switching from Version Numbers to Build Dates 20190818 Changed The HTML extension can now be disabled, and will respect the UBB.threads configuration value Fix Code Cleanup and Reformatting Fix The Forum Listing will check that the forum is enabled before displaying itv1.020180828 August 28th, 2018 No longer in Alpha as the script has been tested extensively on many server configurations. Added a listing of all forum names type 7, which is linked from the Sitemap Index page. Added an option to not display the frequency line. Added an option to not display the lastmod line. Added an option to not display the .html extension for sitemap files. Added support to always produce HTTPS SSL URLs useful for sites on a CDN where the local server may still try to produce nonHTTPS links when using wildcard HTTPS urls. Added support for including the UBB.threads configuration for sites running UBB.threads from the webroot not in a folder. Added support for specifying a domain useful if your UBB.threads install is on a subdomain and you wish to have UBB.Sitemaps located on your main domain. Added support for human readable permalinks with Apache Rewrite Rules Removed the need for a trailing slash in the folder config. Changed the MySQL database connection to utilize MySQLi for PHP7 support. Minor code changes for script performance.v0.10 October 26th, 2015 All queries have been cleaned up, the tally that determines a SitemapIndex's pages is done entirely server side as a single database query.  Additionally the query options where combined and rewritten so that one query loads all of the needed data for the building of each Sitemap. Several configuration options where changed in both v0.9 and v0.10, it is recommended that you compare the options at the top of your page from your current build to the newest version that you wish to upgrade to so that you can see the changes in options and defaults. We now recommend everyone run as a SitemapIndex with offsets enabled as it makes your site futureproof to the amount of data you have in your Sitemap as well as break the data up into manageable chunks that should negate some server strain on large forums. Added support for date_default_timezone_set you can now set the timezone for the generation times supplied by your sitemap defaults to Pacific Standard Time for those who do not set an option. Support for virtual SSL over a CDN using HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO. Fixed a bug with caching. Fixed a time issue with the formatting previously used. Removed the recommendation of blocking user profiles in the robots.txt file as there could be some potentially valuable information as far as data is concerned.v0.9 April 2nd, 2015 All configuration items are now stored in a conf array. ASP sitemaps no longer populate both the title and description tags as they where duplicated and thus added to the bulk of sitemap pages. General script code cleanup, reformatting, and restructuring. The test string is now type 0 previously, type 0 was not utilized and would cause errors if indicated.  Type 7 no longer works for any type of generation. We're now utilizing more current sitemap standards previously we where utilizing earlier versions. There is now support for v7.6.0 style SEO URLs The site name parameter is no longer passed to the thread title as this just added a lot of extra bulk to the pages. The last reply time of a topic is now utilized in XML sitemaps. Utilization of an XML Stylesheet is now supported for XML Feeds see the supplied csssitemap.css and sitemap.xsl files for basic options. For compatibility for users hosting their UBB.threads install in the web root, the conffolder variable now requires a trailing slash. RSS Sitemaps now utilize the  tag which is fed from the confcachetime variable.v0.8 March 28th, 2013 Code Cleanup no more Undefined variables More efficient handling of SSL detection Preview no longer allows cache as it should always be live for testingv0.7 May 26th, 2011 Search Engine Friendly URLs now properly match the UBB.threads' Search Engine Friendly URLs including a more powerful SEO score for URL structure. You can now set the frequency that you want Search Engines to check back for new content using the use_frequency tick.v0.6 August 20th, 2009 This is known as the Caching and Optimization update since improvements where added to increase the speed of your install. Added a simple timebased caching system which will allow you to set how long the output is to be cached this cache is built on the first visit to the script of each URL type if a value is changed in the requesting URL it'll result in a separate caching of that output of data. The default caching time is 24 hours this value is entered in seconds. Added an expires header to the code to allow client browsers or search engines if they support it to cache the output of the sitemap script to their local machine for a defined period of time default 24 hours, entered in seconds. Added the ability to serve the output of the script via GZip to aid in download times basically serving a compressed dataset to the user. GZip has been known to cause some minor CPU load, but most virtual host providers should be more than capable of serving content. Fixed numerous cosmetic display issues and fixed a bug that's been in since v0.2 which made it so that the blank display didn't parse any data vs falling back to the defaults you display.Some of these items may not work in your environment, hence why we added several options. You can use all of them, or none of them, or any portion of them that you wish they're capable of running independently or in conjunction with each other.v0.5 February 15, 2009 Removed Priority tag as it was optional and providing duplicate errors from Google. Removed some test code from the header of the script left in from 0.4. Fixed a bugglet with the read from config option which was added in 0.4. Added a tick to config which allows you to display the optional changefreq tag. Added the ability to pull the community name from your UBB.threads config as the feed name. Updated the changelog format to fix spelling and grammatical errors introduced in 0.3.v0.4 May 1st, 2008 Version 0.4 introduces a preview URL set for testing connections. This preview set can be accessed as httpswww.example.comubb.sitemap.phptype7se1 The db connection data no longer has to be hand written into the UBB.Sitemap script so long as you set the path to your UBB.threads Configuration directory and have connection set to 1, it will read the connection data from your UBB.threads configuration file. Additionally the Preview URL set in the usage area of the readme has been updated to reflect the 0.3a update. Also included in this update is compatibility with the permission update for 7.3.v0.3 June 17, 2007 Support for SitemapIndex's have been built in this works well with the offset feature added in v0.2. The sitemap index will look at the xml sitemap data and build the proper number of valid links to offset pages. This is extremely useful for larger forums as they can set what level they want to offset their data as to not go over the 50k maximum link limit with most providers and they just need to submit one URL versus numerous to cover additional sitemap pages.v0.2 March 20th, 2007 This version introduces offsetting Google has a maximum of 50k links allowed in a sitemap, some larger huge forums have more than 50k threads on their forums. This setting is enabled by default, and can be utilized by using the offset variable in your URLs submitted to GoogleYahoo. Additionally, it can be disabled completely in the configuration file.v0.1 March 1st, 2007 Initial version released to the public.TroubleshootingInvalid Date Error 1969This error is caused from a malformed row or rows in the MySQL database either from a failed prune, topic creation, etc which generally has blank data inserted for the row.  As a timestamp of 0 in the database cannot be translated to a valid date UBB.threads, like most other scripts stores dates in the database in the Unix Epoch format it will be translated as a date prior to the Unix Epoch in this case, 1969.As this error is outside of the scope of the UBB.Sitemaps script, and other items returned in the sitemap will continue being crawled, troubleshooting will require advanced paid support.You can, yourself, attempt to remedy the issue, but managing the database via PHPMyAdmin or the MySQL CLI should only be attempted by advanced users as you can destroy your database please be sure to backup your database before editing any data in the database.You'll need to edit the _POSTS and _TOPICS tables, you'll want to sort the database by the timestamp field post_created for the posts table, topic_created for the topics table starting with the topics table and look for any rows returning a 0 you'll then want to delete the rows that return a blank set of data generally no subject or post data and remove those rows from the database.After purging the rows from the database you'll want to make sure that you clear the sitemap cache by default it is not enabled, and the default location would be cachesitemap delete any .html files in this folder.Frequently Asked Questions What does purchasing a license entitle me toBy purchasing a license to the UBB.Sitemap script you're entitled to lifetime support of the script for the lifetime period of the script.  You also receive access to a year of updates for free.  After the year period updates are purchased in blocks of 1 year for 100yr to cover development costs.  Please note that you are entitled to install this script on ONE domain per license additional domains will require additional licenses. What are the security aspectsThe UBB.Sitemap script will ignore all threads that are posted in private forums basically, if a user who is logged out cannot see a thread in a forum then the script will not publish links in that forum. Also, threads that are not approved will not show either as they're not visible to guest users. What is a SitemapA sitemap will take and provide all of your current threads to search engines, thus eliminating the wait of new discovery of new pages on your forums.You can read about the benefits of using sitemaps via the below quoted article from Google Webmaster Tools.What is a sitemap, and why should I have oneA Sitemap file lets you tell us about all the pages on your site, and optionally, information about those pages, such as which are most important and how often they change. By submitting a Sitemap file, you can take control of the first part of the crawlingindexing processes our discovery of the pages.This may be particularly helpful if your site has dynamic content, pages that aren't easily discovered by following links, or if your site is new and has few links to it.Sitemaps help speed up the discovery of your pages, which is an important first step in crawling and indexing your pages, but there are many other factors that influence the crawlingindexing processes. Sitemaps lets you tell us information about your pages which ones you think are most important, how often the pages change, so you can have a voice in these subsequent steps. Other factors include how many sites link to you, if your content is unique and relevant, if we can crawl the pages successfully, and everything outlined in our webmaster guidelines.A Sitemap provides an additional view into your site just as your home page and HTML site map do. This program does not replace our normal methods of crawling the web. Google still searches and indexes your sites the same way it has done in the past whether or not you use this program. Sites are never penalized for using this service. This is a beta program, so we cannot make any predictions or guarantees about when or if your URLs will be crawled or added to our index. Over time, we expect both coverage and timetoindex to improve as we refine our processes and better understand webmasters' needs.Once you have created your Sitemap, you can add it to your Google Sitemaps account and update it as your site changes.The UBB.Sitemaps script will only generate links for your UBB.threads install it will not generate links for your entire site.  We recommend generating a sitemap for your site content outside of this script versus trying to hijack built in routines, as you're only allowed a certain amount of links in a sitemap 50k and UBB.Sitemaps adjusts itself accordingly if you're using a sitemap index with offsets.Useful Links UBBDev Discussion on UBB.Sitemaps UBBDev Wiki Documentation for UBB.Sitemaps UBB.Sitemaps Script Information on VNC Web Services Bing Webmaster Center Google Search Console Yahoo Site Explorer Now uses Bing data for search results.

				SummaryUBB.Classic formerly the Ultimate Bulletin Board or simply UBB was an internet forum software package originally written by Ted O'Neill of Social Strata, Inc. The first version of UBB.Classic was created on May 7th, 1996 it was written in Perl and used a flat file database. The last version of the software was 6.7.3 released on September 16th, 2005, and was maintained by Charles Capps until he left Social Strata then known as Groupee in early 2006.End of LifeIn 2001, Groupee then known as Infopop acquired WWWThreads, which was renamed UBB.Threads it was written in PHP and used a MySQL database.  Despite the WWWThreads acquisition, InfopopGroupee failed to gain back most of their lost market share, and consequently, many UBB.Classic and even WWWThreadsUBB.Threads forum owners continued to move to competing forum software packages.In the summer of 2005, Groupee announced plans for a new product that was supposed to replace UBB.Classic as well as UBB.Threads, and would utilize PHPMySQL like UBB.Threads had.  The last version of UBB.Classic was 6.7.3, released in 2005.On March 30, 2006, Groupee, Inc. announced that the previously announced replacement product would be called UBB.Threads v7 and not a completely new product. However, much of the code of UBB.threads v7 is completely new since version 6 and incompatible with previous versions, and any upgrade from a UBB.Classic or UBB.Threads v6 board would require an import as if it were a completely new product. UBB.Classic became an endoflife product and was no longer developed as of June 15, 2006.On January 1, 2010, UBB.Threads was sold to Mindraven, Inc., with developer Rick Baker assuming full management of the product.  The sale of UBB.Threads to Mindraven included all former UBB.Classic licenses as part of the sale, and thus all existing UBB.Classic licenses where then managed by Mindraven.OwnershipUBB.Classic is a brand that is owned by Social Strata.
