Thanks! And mhh...I was wondering if there is a speed different between phpBB and MyBB? I'm noticing that phpBB is unbelievably slow. Could Zymic be the culprit?
It takes like 5 minutes to open a simple page.. |
Server, host, or software problem. We can't really tell.
EDIT: My dad just hacked into my computer from work. |
Most likely the host. There really isn't that much of a noticeable speed difference between any forum software.
(inb4 the coders appear and go on and on about how wrong I am, even though the time difference is measured in microseconds or something :P) |
So, would you happen to know a more reliable and speedy host? I tried AwardSpace, but it doesn't let me sign up for some reason...
EDIT: OK, another problem. I just installed phpBB, and it seems to work fine. But when users try to register, they are unable to enter the correct confirmation (CAPTCHA) code, which I know is untrue. Either some people are just stupid, or something is going wrong, and I'm quite sure it's the latter. I've heard this has been a problem with phpBB for some people. |

Try turning off the captcha. That should tell you if it's a captcha issue or not.
Also, have you tried doing some fake registrations? It helps if you see the error first hand :) |
Yes, I'm waiting for my tester to register with the disabled CAPTCHA.
And yes, I've done fake registrations. They all let me register, but not other people... I guess the easiest solution, if no one knows anything else, would be to convert to MyBB. |
Send me a link; I'll try testing.
|
I've had random problems with phpBB captchas before
|
I guess I'll go with MyBB then, unless someone can catch me before I make the change. Thanks for the help.
|
I'm thinking it's a possible problem with your host's settings...
|
Maybe...well, MyBB worked so it's fine then :)
|
Interesting. You using CAPTCHA with mybb?
|
Yes I am. Use the same link I sent you and test if it works if you want.

I need some help in designing a custom blog. I am using Blogger (better than WordPress, not as limited, but still is) and I'm kind of a newb (noobie, n00b, l053R, 1337 31i73, whatever) to using Blogger's capabilities. I need some help.
Link is in sig or my thread. I came here for help and ideas, by the way. |
You realize Wordpress is a whole heck of a lot more versatile than Blogger, right? Especially if you have your own web space to install it. There are literally thousands of themes, plugins, and customizations for WP.
That said, nothing about your blog really screams "NINTENDO!" to me. It's a very plain, generic template with no Nintendo imagery or anything. You really should get an appropriate design that fits your site's theme. |

Try using The Gimp. Free alternative to Photoshop.
(And wordpress, without a doubt, owns over Blogger) |

lol I hardly waste my Google account and I am definitely not using Blogger. Do use GMail, Voice, Wave, Calender, and Android though :D
So anyone see MyBB 1.6 Beta is out? :3 I'm switching PJN over to Wordpress to be a Pokemon blog/news site. I haven't written content since RSE days, don't plan to write any, but I do enjoy updating news and writing opinion pieces. So I'm going to cut down the responsibilities I held to help rekindle my interest. My pokemon sites make pocket money for me through adsense. Just got paid $104 :3 (after 6 months...). I'd like to see if a more active site could improve payout speed hehe. Like $20 of it was from YouTube though, so I need to make some new videos too... |
WP is a great, simple yet powerfully expandable blog system. I use it for one of my cheezeburger-like sites and a friend uses it as his gaming site cms effectively.
Anyway, use a simple text editor for your pages then.. and as stated the GIMP for a photoshop approximation to do up gfx and the like.. |
I'll stay with Blogger. Confusing, but I got the hang of it and I update regularly.
Oh, and I am making a small edit to the homepage to have Nintendo's palette. |
MyBB hasn't died yet? I'm kinda surprised, to be honest. No forums really seem to be innovating anymore.
|
Here's the newsflash on my site.
Last week: 120 visitors This week: 20 visitors That's just... sad. |
Your layout is so generic it's hard to tell at first glance your site isn't one of those flyby sites that middle school Nintendo nerds make. I would change it.
