I've searched, but I can't figure out how to use my existing Provider with the new 1.9.3. I already have users...do I need to write a script to pump them into them the yaf DB?

You have moderator access permissions. Just assign them the Group that has moderator access PER forum. If they do not, give them regular permissions. 5. Sticky is the option when you post the topic under "Priority". (Thoughts: should we change this wording? Seems people are confused by it...) apparently windows server 2008 doesnt have the fulltext feature able for it with sql express 2005, shrug I cant find any ways to getting it to work, so that was part of that probably just adding forum banner didnt seem to work, i kept getting http://forum.frumph.net[FORUM:BANNER] as the image. my xml looks like this now: Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <Resources theme="Frumph" dir="frumph"> <page name="THEME"> <Resource tag="CREDIT">YAFVision Theme by Jaben Cargman (<a href='http://www.tinygecko.com'>Tiny Gecko</a>)</Resource> </page> <page name="FORUM"> <Resource tag="BANNER">~/forum_banner.gif</Resource> </page> <page name="ICONS"> <Resource tag="PM">~/icon_pm.png</Resource> <Resource tag="EMAIL">~/icon_email.png</Resource>
^^ so its in there, but still isnt read., but maybe? As for sticky, yeah its only working when you post apparently. I'm not able to sticky anything after it was already made. Since I just started working on this in the last 16 hours I havent gotten into the code yet to find where it does anything. When you are reading the topic of the page and you see the topics name and on the right side it has options -> watch this topic, email this topic, print this topic, rss feed I would add 'Sticky this topic' to that part. So I can sticky things that other people wrote and were worth keeping at the top. instead of having to repost every important thing...

Update to the Advanced version of SQL Server 2005 Express (free) -- which includes fulltext.

Where are you putting your forum_banner file? ~/forum_banner.gif is actually where that theme is located: usually ~/themes/YafVision.

Just edit the first post in the topic and change the priority setting. "When you are grateful, fear disappears and abundance appears”."

I'm with you on this one, can someone just clear it up on the steps needed to be taken to get this working with existing users in a seperate database table? Thanks! Paul

You do not import users; nor will Yaf do a bulk import. It imports each user as they hit a Yaf page. If you think it's not working simply because you go to the Members area and don't see any... that's why.  Otherewise, leaving my membership providers alone comletely, except for the "inherits" attribute of the profile config section (as posted in that thread) has worked every single time I've integrated Yaf. If you need a concrete, working example of an integrated site, there's a link in that thread.

Sometime after Jabens back from his hols...  He is afterall the release man.  "It's a case of RTFM.. the only problem being we don't have a manual!" When I post FP:Mek in a topic, I'm leaving my footprint there so I can track it once I get into coding/supporting. (Yes I stole this off Ederon  )

you have to download and install the editors inside 'editors' and put the .dll file(s) inside the /bin directory. i just did that on my site with the FCK editor v2. i want to upgrade my yaf 1.9.1.x install to 1.9.3, but the upgrade instructions confuse me
