Help me test this "forum" script.

edited June 2012 in General

I created a simple "forum" type of script, which integrates with Disqus comments, so my users (or anyone really) can ask questions. I wanted it to be lightweight, fast, and not require registration for posting a new topic. I've tested it as much as I can, but if anyone sees any giant errors that I might have missed, I'd appreciate it.

Post whatever you want (legal). I'll delete the entire folder later.

    Stars system seems a little strange. Isn't responding quickly, and goes down rather than up.

    Yeah, that's all part of the new Disqus system. The comment order can be changed under the "Discussion" tab.

    Oh ok, nice that you can change order.

    I assume that it's not just me that after clicking the star more than once.. it goes from zero, down to -1, -2, -3 etc. going down by one each time it's clicked?

    EDIT: Btw, first time I've visited your site.. very clean, must be said :)

    magic_quotes_gpc? ' is backslashed.

    It just goes back and forth between 1 and 0 for me, so it sounds like a javascript issue. Their 2012 system has a few bugs still and is in beta, so there's probably more where that came from. And thanks.

    Just noticed that. Didn't realize it was even enabled.

  • Wow, like the third time you redesigned your website :D. Looks better each time.

    Mind if I use one of your old designs?

    seems veeeeery nice.... will it be open source?

    If you have a copy or can pull it from a cache, go for it. I can upload them somewhere later. I change the layout about every three months (had 22 different designs since 2008). I split test them and change based on what performs the best each quarter. For me, the design is just a landing page. Once someone's a client, they don't care what it looks like from that point on.

    It's literally three small files. I'll upload it later when I get a chance. It basically just creates a new page for each topic (based on a template file) and then enters the url into a text file. No database or anything needed.

  • LOL.

    What's with the "Unban Naruto Now" on the link.

    lol... no captcha or session wait limit.

    Don't really have a copy, but I do like your design style.

  • commenting seems to be off for me. Atleast its not working (constantly loading but to no avail).

    Looking good anyways!

  • Really nice, good work @subigo ;)

    I'm just about to walk out the door. I'll post it later tonight. I'll have to clean it up and remove a few things first.

    HERE YOU GO

    For those of you who wanted it: http://goo.gl/aGNmV

    I cleaned out all of the regular site code (as best I could). This has no captcha or time limit watch. In fact, it has almost nothing. You'll see how simple it is when you download it. You'll need to add your own Disqus code to line #47 (I think it was) of the submit.php file.

    Crap :( You should really add a goatse mirror to your site ;)

    Here's an updated submit.php file that should prevent the blank topic and most xss: http://pastebin.com/JcPs2uwJ

    Yeah, as long as I allow pre tags, there will be more filtering to do. I just wanted to keep xss attempts out for now.

    &*160; bug fixed. I'll just have to create a function for all the damned codes.
