Title: Re: [BOUNTY] Increase forum private message limit Post by: Matthew N. Wright on August 06, 2012, 05:57:56 PM You post every new thread in the Bitcoin Discussion forums and allow the mods to sort it out. :-\ Is this due to ignorance, laziness, or desire for exposure? Ignorance. Is there a "bounties" subforum? Title: Re: [BOUNTY] Increase forum private message limit Post by: drakahn on August 06, 2012, 06:00:32 PM Project Development

Ignorance. Is there a "bounties" subforum? No, but there's a Meta subforum where there is a thread about this already (as said by above poster while I was writing). Why not run the bounty thing on that thread in order to not split discussions? Title: Re: [BOUNTY] Increase forum private message limit Post by: Matthew N.

Why not run the bounty thing on that thread in order to not split discussions? Good point (both of you). I'll move the topic and mention it in the other thread!

I hate it when I'm trying to have a PM discussion and get rate limited...
Title: Re: [BOUNTY] Increase forum private message limit Post by: mc_lovin on August 06, 2012, 07:32:45 PM Why not have it so users at a certain post count have a higher limit? I'd hate to think of a newbie sending 100 PMs an hour.
If you have >1000 posts, 100 PMs an hour is reasonable. Title: Re: [BOUNTY] Increase forum private message limit Post by: Matthew N.

Title: Re: [BOUNTY] Increase forum private message limit Post by: gweedo on August 07, 2012, 12:49:28 AM sounds like a hardcoded SMF thing so someone will either have to create a patch or theymos will have to track down that part and change it. But I agree message rates for members that need it for business aren't cool.
Title: Re: [BOUNTY] Increase forum private message limit Post by: rjk on August 07, 2012, 12:57:16 AM I doubt the forums' codebase is extremely different than a default install, with the exception of several tweaks that have been implemented. So any software devs that wanted to download SMF V1.1.16 could have a look and see how hard it would be, and offer Theymos a patch to apply at his leisure after he reviews the code.
Title: Re: [BOUNTY] Increase forum private message limit Post by: gweedo on August 07, 2012, 01:35:20 AM I just installed v1.1.16 on my dev server and I am looking at the bottom of "Features and Options" in admin menu and I see this

Fixing that has been on my to-do list for a while.

Yea I just dove into the code, it looks quite easy to do, just add a colmun to the membership table, then in PersonalMessage.php ~ Line 1100 just make a sql call to get then check it in that IF statement pretty trivial stuff. Good Luck |
