I agree you should just do it the usual way, but here's the reason your approach didn't work. Template files are parsed inside a function of the template class. Inside the scope of that function, $template isn't set. To do it the way you were trying, instead of $template->_rootref, you'd have to use...

In phpBB 2 they used a separate date format in the language files for that. I guess they changed it to make it configurable in the ACP/UCP. I agree that it is a bit too detailed, but I guess it would be useful for pinpointing the time of day that most people register.

Then, that would mean the function whatever_ldap() doesn't exist. If you're working with classes and checking for a function inside a class, you need to use method_exists() (or maybe is_callable()) instead of function_exists().

Is $auth_flags a non-empty array? How it is being set? Also, where does $method get set?

Hi Trinity, nice to meet you. There aren't many people around that remember phpBB 1 now, so it's always good to see someone that does. I was going to use it myself, but they got 2 out before I could.

Thanks all. It's nice to be here.

Seeing that your mods were hosted here reminded me and so I decided to drop by. Thanks fo...

Thanks, I'll take a look at that.

I have to say, I'm not too fond of the RC1 captcha myself. It's okay, but I had problems reading it sometimes. I think I will probably replace it with a mod. Most likely, I'll convert the Photo Captcha phpBB 2 mod. I rather like that one.

Sorry to bump an old topic, but I wanted to ask: did anyone make an independent phpBB 2 -> phpBB 3 upgrade script for mods, as was discussed here? I've been thinking about providing such a script for one of my old mods (a friend/foe list). I can always make one myself, but I don't see any reason to ...

Hi, I'm Thoul. I decided to register because I've seen people from phpBBModders around other forums and have been generally impressed with their level of knowledge, courtesy, and good work. This seems like a good place and I hope I will be able to contribute something useful to this community. I've ...
