Website Down Time

[theENIGMATRON]

Over the next week, You may notice a little downtime.

It will be done to a Min, but be patent with it.

Some things you may notice:

Website will not display,
Randomly being taken to the Blog, or the Blog taking you here.
Logging in being redirected and forced to another place.
Random Errors on the site.

Ignore them, and when am aware the site is being effected in this way,
I will revert back and retry.

What is one doing
A merge of 6 Different PLugins fro for Wordpress and the forum.

The Idea, is i want a Single post from Wordpress to be posted into the forum (Under News)
I then want comments to work Back and forth, If i post on the blog it posts here on the forum, If i post on the forum it goes back to the Blog.

So i will have to merge the Users or get them to share usages.

Things may go smooth, but if they dont thats why

[DJ-Daz]

sounds like a VERY sweet idea Dave.

So if I post a comment here, it gets posted to the blog, and a blog comment gets posted to the forum?

So joe public can post on the blog and their comment gets carried over here?

sounds good.

Is there a comment notification plugin? Lets the commentor know they've received a reply, and induces more replies.

also how does nested comments work?

[theENIGMATRON]

The idea in simple terms Yes.

But i have to work on a proper method, i.e. Only when i accept the comment does it come on here.

or. Only registered members can comment.
That was it would force more members...

If i open it to Anyone then i see a Flooood of messages.

I will have a look for some sort of Reply system, if not i dont think there would be much to it to add a Email notification, I get them on my account on every comment, so i am sure it would not be much to code something in if there is no such plugin.

Am not sure about Nested comments???

[InfiniteStates]

That sounds really cool - good luck with it
It also sounds like there may be headaches involved...

[DJ-Daz]

make sure you have akismet plugin setup... it'll stop spam DEAD, I never once got a single spam message go through on dynamicthemes, and there were hundreds if not thousands of attempts.

set it up for 1 url and your akismet key, and forget about spam forever.

[YorkshirePud]

appreciate the work dave

[InfiniteStates]

...I never once got a single spam message...

You've effectively killed it dead on my forum too - thanks man

[theENIGMATRON]

Aint akismet Chargeable?

Its not a free service is it?

And cheer Yorkshire.


You should also Notice a Twitter Integration.
This has been added in Multiple contacts on the Site.

One is After Every Post letting you Tweet the Post.
Another is a AUTO Post from when making a post (Still to test)
The 3rd is you can MAKE your own post to twitter from within the posting screen (Making a Post)

And You can Also tweet from the Dashboard.
I think it should all go against the Mess Hall Account

no problem, only took a couple of minutes. of hair pulling

[theENIGMATRON]

akismet Did you Pay for your Key?
Or am i looking at signing up at the wrong point?

[DJ-Daz]

akismet is free, you just have to sign up for the key...
https://akismet.com/signup/#free

select personal, drop the charge to zero and it's done.

[theENIGMATRON]

Yer i had this installed on Day one,
But i never knew you could alter the price, i just seen X amount lol!!
CHeers and shorted it now.

I might hold off on the bridge betweens users for the moment, it dont think its REALLY needed,
But i am aiming to do it over time, the comment system never worked like i planed, but hopfully ill have something up there.

[theENIGMATRON]

Cheers Sys,
I forgot about that, Will sort that out now cheers


By the looks of it, it needs an account to manage and not a page,
So need to make an account for it, Not having access to mine LOL!!!!

Will look more into this properly later

[theENIGMATRON]

Ok sorry if you noticed any Downtime,

I made some changes to the Stability of the Script that posting over to the forum.

Also the following Changes have been made:

Users who post a Page on the Blog, Will have the Name attached to the post when its pushed through to the forum,
So we can see who is doing all the work, and they can be appreciated of what there posting.

I have bodged up part of a comment system together,
Its by means nothing amazing, it will Just show under the post How many people have Posted a reply on the Post in the forum,
And Links you directly to the post, Or if your logged in it should take you straight to the Reply System
