Thank you for your notes of encouragement! We are planning to add more mods with the next release v2.30.00 expected to be released in August. This is not an easy thing to do as everyone's wants/needs differ. But we will be offering some choices with the next release.

[Edited May 1, 2008] Correction to expected release date.

One wish for the BBtoNuke forum (I know lots of users that supports me on this one) is to make it capable of handling (the fact is that many countries have) summer-/vintertime. It's rather confusing that RavenNuke (as well as other Nukes) supports this, whilst the forums doesn't...
Would of be great to get the right time for all postings (forums ans PM's) Smile

Maybe a variable that could be triggered via a eg. checkboks in the forum Profile?

You can use a code snippet so that your forums will automatically change the time from winter- to summertime. Isn´t that great ?
Maybe I can find it again.Saw it long time ago at phpBB.de but beneed this I don´t see a problem within my forum and the time.

Thanks alot, Susann, for pointing me in the right direction...

I found several MOD's and code snippets at the German phpBB site.
I will test some of them (one at a time), and see what happens to the forum posts and PM's timestamps.
Hopefully I will find a MOD or code that don't also affects members in timezones that don't use summer-/vintertime... Wink

Thanks again for your help!

A mod thats automatic sets a forum post to persona_non_grata if U delete a user from your database.

Susann · Posted: Fri May 02, 2008 5:55 am

kenwood whenever you delete a user within that forum post it sets automatically the name to anonymous.So I guess you only need to rename the name to persona_non_grata.
Bu I´m looking for a mod wich sets automatically the rank name of a user to locked. Not sure something exist already.
Beneed this every upgrade with a modded forum is a pain and thats the reason why I limited all mods and use only a few wich I really need to manage my community and for seo.

kenwood, BTW, "persona_non_grata" has special meaning here on these forums and is "custom". Just didn't want you to think this was some phpBB feature. That is all I'll say about this subject so don't ask. Smile

Here are the code changes in includes/functions.php:

And here is an English translation, via Babel, for those that can't understand German

Quote:

Automatic conversion to summer time/winter time

phpBB contains according to standard no code for automatic changing over between summer/winter time. Here is described, as one re-tools this functionality.

Note: The eingedeutschte version of

contains the improved code already.

Open includes/functions.php, look for (approx. line 329)

Code:

return (!empty($translate))? strtr(@gmdate($format, $gmepoch + (3600 * #)), #): @gmdate($format, $gmepoch + (3600 * #));

... replace through:

Code:

return (!empty($translate))? strtr(@gmdate($format, $gmepoch + (3600 * (# ", #)))), #): @gmdate($format, $gmepoch + (3600 * (# ", #))));

Explanation:
The function date("I") supplies 0 as result 1 with summer time, otherwise. Thus the time which can be indicated is affected directly.
Thus the indicated time tunes must in the board configuration and in the profile the correct time belt be adjusted (for Deutschland:"GMT + 1 hour"). The clock on the server must naturally also be correct.
There only the summer time an adjustment required changes the announcement after the change also only in the summer.

Around the time belt in the profile for all users to change one uses this SQL Query:

Quote:

UPDATE `phpbb_ users` SET ` user_timezone` = ' 1 ' WHERE ` user_id` > 0;

That table prefix must be adapted possibly still to that of the own tables.

I want to leave the value of the user_timezone field "as is" for all users (since this is set individually by each user).

What I prefer is to make changes to the posting timestamps only.
I found this code at
