Ah. There's some lovely people in this world. My test board for this mod has been defaced by what I think is a Brazilian hacking group.

So right now - I'm extremely happy. And sarcastic.

If you think they used some security hole, please contact me....

That really sucks, though.  Some people have no life... err, besides me.

Is anyone able to host a mirror for now? I can't access my webspace at all...

[Daniel D.]

You have an IM.

Can someone send me a copy of the file ?

Thank-you to Wiziwig for providing me with my own mod

I wrote the log on my dad's laptop but he's gone away for a few weeks on a course and took the laptop with him; as a result I didn't have a copy of the mod.

I'll see if it's still compatible with 1.5.4 (chances are it will be) and then work on the new additions I spoke about earlier.

So to conclude, you can download the mod again - but the test board is down.

mod works fine for 1.5.4

[Mach8]

Thank-you very much, I was about to post the same thing.  

Updated thread title.

[Mach8]

Version 1.1 of the mod has been released. Below are a list of the changes made in this version.

• If there is no description set then the brackets for the description will not be displayed in the thread view mode.
  
  
• The font sizes of the topic title and topic description when viewing a board index are now controllable from the 'Mod Settings' page.
  
  
• All hardcoded text is now found in english.lng
  
  Not a big update - the mod isn't that big anyway - but at least it fixes a few issues that were reported. I have tested the mod on my home server setup but that still doesn't guarantee that it will work correctly. Therefore the mod will remain in beta status until several people confirm the mod works without any problems.
  
  Note that if you translate any of the mod's text then I will be glad to include it in a revised version. The text strings used by the mod are:
  
  
  Code Select Expand
  $txt['desc1'] = 'Description';
$txt['desc2'] = 'Font Size Of Topic Title';
$txt['desc3'] = 'Font Size Of Topic Description';

I'll look into it as soon as I get home tonight, I have a feeling it might be a UNIX/Win32 formatting issue, easily fixable.

hope so ..

also can you make a limitation for chars in the description like 50 chars for example ?! I think this is important or some ppl will ruin the tables by typing a long description...

[Mach8]

I thought the description length already was fixed? I'll look at that as well though.

* goes to look at mod *
