Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    I am making a forum system in PHP and its all working perfectly so far, I am adding custom BBcode and using emoticons. I like the PHPBB emoticons but am I allowed to use these in my script or do I have to request permission from PHPBB

    If you are planning a successful site it's safer to abide by copyright law.

    Have a google, here's one example of free icons available under the creative commons attribution license - that means on your site you must have a link back to the authors site. I'd say a link on a credits or about page would do the trick.

    sure could i put it on the bottom of the page, Emoticons by PHPBB, because I am thinking of copyrighting my own forum script too
