phpBB Teething Problems

seanos

Trying to setup phpBB, and having a problem ...

When go to administration panel, and user administration.
And do Find username
window opens, with option to enter partial/wildcards to search for...
In the drop down box - it displays correct results
however when choose one and click select - get scripting error :
Class Doesn't Support Automation
Line 243
which reads :

function refresh_username(selected_username)
{
opener.document.forms.username.value = selected_username;
opener.focus();
window.close();
}

from the search.php file...


[phpBB 2.0.6]

Also - im curious if theres any other way to see all usernames ?
This system doesn't seem to be aimed towards a high-load board - as in if you have 10 users registering, have to select each username + activate them manually ;/

Any other suggestions for forums software would be nice [although vB is little out of my budget - college bum, doing this for NetSoc - and vB didnt see it fit to sponcer me by giving me free software]

Thanks

IIRC, There should be a link on the main boards to a members list. As an admin, the full list should be visible.

As for activating, perhaps you may be better off with user activation. It requires them to have a valid email address, and like boards, allows you to ban people until they run out of addresses

(Sorry, I haven't used phpBB in a while, and have no active one to test on )

well this is only test so doesn't matter too much - but for finished product i'll need it working - as will be private forum ...

and I still want to get the whole erorr thing fixed - dislike errors ;/
