Now there's a blast from the past. Someone on here told me it was a pointless endeavour because anyone who wanted to put files on the Internet would have hosting :-(
I ought to be rich...
:(
I blame PB.
I may be talking completely out of my hat here:
Could it be integrated into Beehive in any way?
At the moment when I go to attachments I can see everything i've uploaded. Maybe using this people can browse each others attachments (if given permission).
For example, Fozza attaches torrent files for teh podcast. While attaching the file is put in his storage, which could even be on another server that uses Teh for authentication in some way. As long as they're in his storage you don't even have to look for the thread they were originally posted in. You just go to his profile and look in his storage.
And he can select who on the forum can see his files, creating groups from the user list. Mods could then share files of world domination without the common people having access.
I don't know if you can do this with dropbox but having the capability to do it on your own server instead of trusting someone else might come in useful for some people - even if it isn't useful for us it helps distinguish Beehive from other Forum software.

Is it possible clear any memory of previous PHP code?
I want to pull from a few text files but it seems to have the previous one in the memory.
<?php t = time(); include("./whatever.txt?abc=".t); ?>
Thanks. Something like that might work. I had to do similar to prevent Google caching my KML file.
But I've now gone to a MySQL DB driven thing. But that seems to have similar problems of not clearing out the old data :@ (fail)
<?php header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT"); header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate"); header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false); header("Pragma: no-cache"); ?>
New rule, whatever PB says people 'ought' to be doing with tech, make the opposite.
???
Profit.
Doesn't matter. Your opinions on what people should do and how they should do it are almost always the exact opposite of what people want.
I have no evidence to back this up, other than your specificness about features and functions, but it's totally true.
No need for that, we have more than enough anecdotal evidence right here on Teh.

Pete uses Google Plus - Rest of the world + dog uses Facebook
Pete doesn't have a landline - everyone else does
I could go on, but I'm busy...
