All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.
I don't really care for boardmod 2.5 either... too many bugs... the guy who made it is coming out with 3.0 so as soon as that is released I think it should be a little less buggy.
As for the .mod files most people just host them on their own server and tell people where to get it and what instruction are needed to install it.
The official http://boardmod.yabb.info site is where they will be kept for downloading... but they haven't officially opened yet... infact nobody is even supposed to know about it yet... some secret huh many people have already begun posting there before it is even opened.
I have also been working on YaBB integration. I am integrating my test board with my site at http://www.agigames.com/test/site.php?page=mainpage as you can see from the menu it has few message board functions.
I wasn't planning on keeping the integration with the board though, but I do plan on integrating my chat room and my site.
Take a look at the bottom of the index of the board where the login stuff is. I added some stuff for registering. It is dependent on the settings that the admin has set in his admin center so it is fully customizeable.
I haven't released this mod yet, but mostly because I haven't finished putting all the text in English.lng for easy translation.
Alright I am almost done with my next mod, it allows each user to pick a skin in which to view the site with when they are logged on. To see this mod in action go to http://www.agigames.com/boardmod/ then register, login and change your profile, then choose what skin you want to use when you are logged in. (There is only 3 right because I only made 3 skins. )
Well I now have my own package server. I would recommend adding it to your package server list df. To do that go into your admin center, go to your YaBBPak center, then click download new YaBBPaks, then add http://www.agigames.com/boardmod/Packages to your list. You can give it any name you want that doesn't affect anything.
Then you can download, install and unistall my mods without haveing to use boardmod.
df has it set up so that it doesn't split up until a certain number of posts is reached. My board has it set to 15, but I am not sure what df has it set to. I think it might be set to 30 though?
i'm writing a boardmod tonight that reverses the posts, so the newest posts are at teh top of the thread, so the last page in a thread has the first post..
a bit of a useless mod
and ya, iirc its about 30 posts till it page splits
