Have you tried running an error check? [syntax=php]echo mysql_error(); [/syntax]

Something seems to break the query, but as far as I can tell it's not a typo.
It might be that the host deems the old Mysql-functions too unsecure and will instead force you to use MySqli or PDO.

What host are you using and what does their MySQL arrangement look like?`

Have you tried it on another web host?

What does the second form look like? I don't see where all your $_POST variables get their values from. You said in your first post you store the value of $_POST['email'] inside $_SESSION['email'] so you can use it in the second form, but you still add_user with $_POST['email'] instead of $_SESSION[...

I can't help you without seeing your code. I can only imagine how your code looks.

Post every relevant document inside codetags and I'll look at it.

I'm curious what frameworks you guys ( those of you that are still here :) ) use, if any. Do you use any fancy schmancy libraries or such things? Are you utilizing VM's? Are you doing version control? Git or Mercurial? What does your usual development setup look like? Just trying to get some discuss...

Stressful.
Not much time left over for anything fun.
Broke as a joke.

The first thing that comes to mind is password hashing. I don't believe the rest of your login system stores the passwords in plain text in the database, but the reset password function will do that. If you try to log in using a function that compares a given password to a password hash in the datab...

Just can't access my old account for some reason. Can't use "Forgot Password" and if I type the wrong password I instantly exceed the maximum amount of login attempts.

I had that problem too. Jacek had to manually reset my password.

they usually avoid that by using clever tactics, like putting spaces in the domain name, or not including www. or http:// They will just find some way to get through the filter. I think just admin review of all first posts. I don't think it matters much if a post doesn't show immediately. I can chec...

I don't mind just being a bit more vigilant and check in a bit more often so that I can catch and delete the spam before it bothers anyone
One or two spam posts a day isn't much to fuzz about if I'm honest.

I think it sounds like a lot of work. Maybe more than anyone is willing to put in for this, at least for now. Just keep it simple for now. If we manage to get some activity back here we can consider putting in some hours in getting this to actually look good and optimize everything. The most importa...

That was truly super easy to follow

I've been kinda scared of all the analytics stuff. I really should get a better grasp of it though, and now is as good a time as any!

Thanks for sharing.

I'll be damned. I did not know Boeing had a clothing-line. It's fun to see that people are getting some jobs. haha i dont think they do. I do site maintenance for their commercial side. So for the 787, 747 and pretty much all the 700 series planes. We also redesigned and built the entire boeing.com...

Well, it's been a while since you made your tutorials, so maybe remake some of your old popular ones? A lot has happened since 2011.

I'm bumping this in hopes it can become the "Main" Minecraft thread here. I'll reformat it a bit later. I don't even know if anyone here still plays any Minecraft, what with people having busy lives and tight schedules, but I'm usually on a few hours a month playing with my little 8 year o...

Yeah I really do think someone has gone through the pain of migrating phpbb databases to other platforms before. Those open sourced ones usually have some kind of plugin for handling that stuff. Have you completely given up on the custom one you started on? I cant remember how far along you came wit...

This reply is way late, but for future reference:

If your MySQL queries return null, or won't do what you want them to, try echoing mysql_error()
like so:
[syntax=php]echo mysql_error();[/syntax]

This reply comes way late but for future reference:

str_getcsv is only available in PHP 5.3.0 or later. You need to update your PHP version to the latest one, which is a good idea regardless.

I do realize that, but even a couple of posts per week is enough to satisfy my itch. And compared to the activity we used to have, it doesn't seem impossible.
