Buffistas

Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Didn't just happen at post equals zero, though. When we first moved over here, the first post in every thread skipped one post number. So if the last post on the old server was #699, the first post here was #701.

Edited to say that I'm not sure it was due to the same thing, but it sure looked like it.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

did the sign in problems get fixed? how's testing going? what are we testing?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Once we have the code working for PostgreSQL, I think we should go on to implementing triggers for post number incrementing, et al.

But I still have to fix the filter first anyway,

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I wonder if things were coded assuming Count(0) =0?

DX, I think my explanation still applies. I think the code will always set the post_number one too high, but after this happens once then future posts will follow in correct sequence.

msbelle, the sign-in problem was fixed (assuming there was only one sign-in problem). Last night my internet access died, so I didn't do any fixing beyond that. So there are still some known issues for me to fix.

I don't know offhand if all possible functionality has been tested yet.

edit for spelling....

No one post in the test board, please. I'm changing code so....

OK, I fixed a bunch of stuff. I'm going to exercise for a bit.

Can somebody(s) go to BBaBB on the test system, see what I did, and remind me what else needs to be done?

All is well that ends in pizza.

I'd like to help out, but I never got the confirmation email.

Daniel, I just sent it again, and activated the account. Let me know if you don't get it.

Maybe Daniel originally registered back when the confirmation email didn't have a "from" address? (which caused some spam filters to reject it)

Huh--I just noticed that nothing is in the user_timestamp field. Is this being used? Maybe the MySQL version this field defaults to Now()?
