New board questions

Site Maintance Problems/Comments/Suggestions

Just a few questions

  1. What is a “prillion”?
  2. What does “toggle description” do?
  3. When I click FAQ, why do I get a members list?
  4. This seems to have pop-ups, but it doesn’t appear to make any difference whether pop-ups are enabled or disabled. Could someone explain what setting I should have, and maybe a little why?
    Thanks

Prillian =adds new features to phpBB that are similar to an instant messenger service (like ICQ or AOL Instant Messenger), while still being part of your forum. These features are typically accessed through the “IM Client.” The IM Client is basically a new browser window that uses combinations of HTML and JavaScript to provide a central place for accessing controls and receiving messages. Individual board users are not required to download any software to use Prillian. Prillian runs through web browsers like Internet Explorer, Netscape, etc.

Prillian’s features include user preferences, admin panel and configuration add-ons, a buddy list, an ignore list and full support for normal phpBB features like BBCode, smilies, etc.

FAQ is a bit “faqed”…should recheck why its not working

The Popup windows let you show “Prillian”, instant Messages aso…it also let you see if someone is checking your profile

Hope it helped

Ok, Wis, What’s the “points” thing about?
Oh yah, the active topics and Avatars not working, ether.

what “points”??

Avatar…yes, sorry, I know but couldnt figure out yet how to make it work

Active topics is called “Recent Discussions” or did I miss something?

Wis, on the left side of the pages, under the member’s name, is information re: that member, among that information is the listing “points”, your’s is 739 (at this time).

The Active Topic Link I was talking about is the little bell next to the topic. Unread topics are yellow once topic is read it is no longer yellow. The problem is that once I go to any one topic all of the “yellows” go out. It’s the same problem I and others had with the old site. Check the previous post in this topic.

EDIT: each time I “connect” to the forum, post or upload a pic…i get points…I guess it shows how much time you spend here…hmm that isnt good lol
