I now dislike PHPBB

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

After a failed attempt to fix the cross-posting glitch that appeared after updating the forum I decided to reinstall it and update it at the same time.

Bad idea.

I’ve now installed, broken and uninstalled the forum five times in a row just to get it to work again. Sorry if your avatars or any other file you’ve uploaded disappeared but that was because of a very freaky PHP/FTP error that made me have to completely empty the folder (which didn’t even work at first)

Anyway, enough about that. The forum’s fixed now, report any bugs if you find them (like not being able to see the forum, that bug is very sneaky)

Oops, zat was not medicine

Well I was going to update PHPBB3, Wordpress and WP United to get stuff working properly and ended up having to reinstall PHPBB3, FOUR TIMES

What makes it all so much better is that the forum laughs at my attempts to upload the backup I created, oh dear

What this means is that every user, post and forum dissappeared and I’m deeply sorry for any trouble this may cause you.
On the other hand this gives me a nice excuse to fuck up the server in my attempts to get a server <-> site integration going, wish me luck
