Today's updates..
1. Reply "seems" to work (but be careful if you try to 'test' it, just in case!!
2. Topic displays now include the last post of the page before, when moving on to the next page.
3. The "Read Posts" now appears to vaguely work for topics.

Sounds like a crazy amount of things to be popping onto eBay.
Surely a proper shop-site would be better?

Note to self : Your edit button doesn't work, yet, no matter how many times you click on it!!

Still trying to fathom this.

As much as it's currently working, I'm having "The sidebar happens before the main content" issues.
eg, if you view a topic that's currently marked as unread, the thread doesn't update in the sidebar because you haven't read it yet, until AFTER the sidebar is already drawn..

As such, things aren't quite perfect.

If anyone can figure it out, let me know. Thanks again!

Could you have your PHP generate the content of the different sections in whatever order is convenient to you, store the results in strings, and then just output them at the end, rather than outputting as you go?

Hmm.. That's a thought.
I'll look into trying that, too! Thanks

Works a treat (or at least, appears to )
Thanks again, Shroomy!

Added a Log In button to the left sidebar when not logged in. (Instead of having it be in the banner like it currently is.)
Simply copy+pasted the Login form from the old site, stripped out the table, and bingo.. A working login form.

*clicks button, not expecting to get logged in, because I haven't coded the actual login part yet.*

....
*Gets logged in*

!?!?!

Turns out, when I copied the "Username/Password Cookie" stuff, that also had the "When logging in, change the cookie!" code, and I hadn't realised.

Eeeeee!

So, anyway, you can no log in and out of s2.php!
Additionally, the sidebars reload every 1 min 30. (30 seconds left, then right, then "I haven't added the banner reload in, yet", then repeat)

There's still TONS to do, but I'm quite happy that it's at least barely functional after just a week

Moved "Button Chaos" from the top right, into it's own "Menu Bar"
It looks a lot less insane, now!

Doing lots of jumping, between PHP, CSS and Javascript, and quite frankly it's doing my bloody head in!!!

"OK, now just check the length of the string, and... ... "

*ponders*

"Hmm.. Now, which of the 78 methods was it, to find the length of a string in this particular web language..?"

Started work on the new showcase/blog/link/article/etc pages.
No comments, yet, but the basic view seems to be working ok.

https://socoder.net/s2.php?Showcase=58955
https://socoder.net/s2.php?Article=37004
https://socoder.net/s2.php?snippet=57232

I've made them much more generic, this time. I figured I'd just aim for making it piss easy to make themes, rather than trying desperately to create a monolith of CSS madness!!

Thoughts/Comments?

Yep, I like those. Clean and simple. Can it handle odd sized images though Jay? Will it scale down/up o fill the available space?
Sun, 14 May 2017, 07:05

Yeah, I made use of CSS's "Max-Width" thing.
So much easier than when I first coded this, a decade ago.
Back then, if you set Max-Width, it'd fuck up the image ratio! Somewhere along the way, someone made it "not shit"!!

I'll probably add a Max-Height, too, just to be on the safe side.

fuck knows how I organised those Language and System settings, but Flappadiddle definitely isn't coded in PHP, and it sure as hell doesn't run on an Amstrad CPC!!!

Back to the drawing board..

OK, that'll do for today.
I *think* I got the language and system displays working, but I'm going to have to manually flick through the whole damn site to be sure..
.. That'll be fun :\

Meanwhile, HoboBen complained that the sliding sidebars were slow and crappy on a low-end device, so I tweaked a bit and added a "Instant-On, No Animation" sidebar option, which you can find in the "Theme Options" page. (Click the paintbrush!)

Hopefully that helps.. Let me know.

If anyone has any more suggestions/tips/requests/etc, stick 'em below, and I'll have a good honest look at trying them out.
Literally anything goes, at this point.

ahhh I didn't mean the sidebars, I meant the current image zoom on the old/existing site. Sorry if I was confusing!

Super happy about the CSS-based buttons!

SO much better being able to change the words on the buttons in the code, instead of having to re-render and re-upload 20 odd button images each and every time!!!

Today's work has been in the "Comments" department.
As of this moment, comments are read-only, but I'm about to start to add simple commenting ability.

Once that's done, it's on to editing things..
That oughta be fun!!

Editing of comments is now (*should be*) functional over on S2.php.
Editing of Forum Posts will be a task for another day..

Forum Post editing is now (hopefully!) functional.

Still LOADS of stuff to do..
Editing "Things" is probably next, and then I have to start creating the actual forum/thing section areas, so you can search through old topics and whatnot.
*phew*
