*Will be implmented in Beta 2
 
What exactly does it do? Host signatures for forums?

What are the advantages of using it?


EDIT

Oh i get it!

Do you mean it makes an image for a signature, by using various bit of information, and putting them all together in a single image? Like the images from danasoft.com?

That's pretty cool 👍
 
I have an new site.
http://www.phpsigs.uk.to <- Do not know if that works, DNS cached too early. :(
http://phpsigs.uk.to <- Works, but nothing there yet. Installing an forum today. :)

There is also a wiki, if you go to http://phpsigs.uk.to/wiki/ ;)
If you want to see a work in progress version, then go to:
It now uses ADOdb for the database, and bTemplate for the templating system (Even if it a pain in the arse to work with, silencing $_SESSION errors. :grumpy: ) I am aiming to complete the UCP login, logout and singup functions today, so that I can start to work on the UserCP.

Throws an error when I try to login...

Thanks. I am sorting out that error as you post. If you want to see the code it is below:
PHP: 
function login()
{
    //$username = $_POST['username'];
    //$password = md5($_POST['password']);

    //Check that all data is entered

    $resultid = $db->Execute('SELECT * FROM `phpsigs_users` WHERE `username` = "'.mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']).'" AND `password` = "'.mysql_real_escape_string(md5($_POST['password'])).'" LIMIT 1');  //ERROR line
while (!$resultid->EOF())
{
    $row = $resultid->fields;
	$_SESSION['username'] = $row['username'];
	$_SESSION['id_admin'] = $row['is_admin'];
	$_SESSION['id'] = $row['id'];
    $_SESSION['LOGIN_OK'] = 'OK';
    $resultid->MoveNext();
}
  header("Location: index.php?mod=usercp");
}
EDIT:
The www should be active now. I made a CNAME record to it to point to http://phpsigs.uk.to :)

EDIT: Go the login and logout fountions working. Now I am to convert the Signup functions. It also uses SHA1, where it used to use MD5.

Why the change? Is SHA1 safer/better than MD5?
 
Yes SHA1 has a higher encription. It was published by the US Goverment as a standard, and is used in the Xbox, as well as some very secure applications/protocals like SSH, SSL (https://). more info here

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
md5: 9e107d9d372bb6826bd81d3542a419d6
SHA1: 2fd4e1c67a2d28fced849ee1bb76e7391b93eb12

You will be able to choose the encription. :)
I am going to make the Upload your own sig area today. ;)

[edit]
show.php

if you see this image, It is just a beta test for phpSIGS. I am just testing what it would be like under heavy load. This executes a query through MySQL, stating how much has transfered in bytes. That amount then gets formatted on the homepage so it says something like 'This service has transfered a total of 500MB!' Problem is that GTP dont allow images in sigs :grumpy: so I am going to have to use it on other forums (otherwise it would be perfect, as this forum has the right number of people on it. Proberly put it on dhost (my old web host, been about a year since I used them.), and another forum.

I would have thought MD5 was safer as it can't be decrypted like SHA1 can. SHA1 can be returned to original text, MD5 cannot. Also, all MD5 encrytions are the same 32 character length, unlike SHA1 which varies in length.

Do you have any more explanations why SHA1 is safer - I'm just curious is all. :)
 
Yes, why is SHA1 safer? I have always used MD5 for forums and websites.

It won't let me log into the sig. control panel for a user, and I get signature errors on the forum!

Also, DeluXe Host is great! They host my wiki!
 
1) Singup has not been converted into SHA1 yet.
2) SHA1 is 160bit encription whereas MD5 is 128bit. MD5 can also be cracked very easly, using dictionary attacks. When you select MD5, I will try to stop dicsonary, by putting your Unencripted username then Encripted password, for example.

md5($username md5($password));

That will stop dictionary attacks. :)

3. I used to be with DeluXe Host, but I didnt like how slow it used to be. I am now with StaticHost, and I have ben with them for well over a year. Well it was actually August 5th 2004. :)

What kind of errors are you geting on the forum.
 
BUMP:
I have made it sucessfully connect to Audioscrobbler, and get the last song I plaed, and formatted it, and added it to my sig.

It says DISABLED at the moment, as Audioscrobbler is down, so I am listening to this untill it is back up. I am then going to modify the code, to make a cache image, so that it would reduce the load, on AS's servers, and the users. ;)

No, not yet. I need to add a control panel for the users, and more data sources. I will also have to cache Audioscrobbler, otherwise they will get annoyed that I read the file every time. :)

I am working on the user control panel, and the caching now, and I will add more sources (like Whatpulse, RSS feeds) tommorow. ;)
 
BUMP:
I have just upgraded the forum to k4BB BETA 2.0 RC1, what I have just downloaded via SVN. I have yet to set it up properly yet, but I will have to go into MySQL to delete the galllery forum I created. If you do not know how powerful k4BB is, it is as powerful, if more powerful than vB, but because it is OpenSource, it is free. visit the forums at http://www.phpsigs.uk.to/forums/. :D The only downside of it is the admin cp is very green lol.

Me testing the AJAX CSS editor.

Now it is back to Binary :(
 
Started on the design today. I will update this post with my progress. :D

What do you think of it so far? :)

What were you getting. :confused: . It may be me trying to edit the layout of the forums and it buggered up. But that is now fixed.
