Re: imgur is removing "old, unused and inactive" content

I've gone through old posts and rehosted images wherever I could. Some images were already gone, so they've been left alone. Because you might find it interesting, here's the process I followed and my code: At first I was downloading images manually and uploading them as attachments, as a result of ...

imgur is removing "old, unused and inactive" content

2w5B.png Yesterday, imgur announced that they are updating their terms of service, saying that they will remove "old, unused and inactive content" from their service moving forward. If any of you remember Photobucket and Imageshack, it looks like imgur has finally decided to follow the fo...

Re: Wiki login is broken?

I just tried applying that fix and it didn't seem to work. I changed my password to one containing many special characters and I wasn't able to log in. The logic is sound, but as they say in the issue, I can't spot any usage of htmlspecialchars. Perhaps if someone finds out exactly what phpBB does t...

Re: Wiki login is broken?

Sorry, I put this on ice for a while because I thought I'd have to look into updating the mediawiki-phpbb bridge myself. Last time this happened it was because of a headache about ciphers and stuff. However, looking at the code, the "You need a phpBB account to login." is just a generic me...

Re: Server move incoming, expect a little bit of downtime

I copied over the theme straight from the server so the vertical spacing issues must be a side effect of updating Mediawiki... somehow.

I commented out the size overrides I could find to hopefully bring it in line more with the default template.

Re: Invalid form submitted when logging in and other problems...

Whenever I log in it tells me an invalid form is submitted and I should try again, unless I get lucky and somehow manage(I could barely login to type this, and can barely log in to reply to stuff). There are also other issues like me being logged out but I still see my name at the bottom of people ...

Re: Server move incoming, expect a little bit of downtime

The wiki should be working now. Let me know if anything is exceptionally broken (except for the theme, I know about that already). One of the things I had to update was Semantic MediaWiki, which had a scary warning about needing to migrate some stuff. If you see something strange in the fancy autoge...

Server move incoming, expect a little bit of downtime

The current server is getting dangerously dusty so I am currently in the process of moving stuff over to a new home. Once I've got most of the large stuff transferred I am going to lock the forums and wiki and transfer the databases over for those. Therefore, there will be an hour or two where you m...
