Database Reference Error

[Kosila]

When I click "search" on the top of the forums, I get an error:

General Error
Could not obtain forum_name/forum_id

At the bottom right, under //transmissions, it says:

Unable to obtain post-info from database!

I think they have something to do with eachother.

Yes something I noticed too. Was waiting a little.

There is something wrong somewhere:


It can't populate the box for forum exclusion. It seems if all forums where selected, this message would also appear (on the block, unsure on search). What is strange, is there is a topic to INCLUDE select box, and that IS populated...

I had issed some security items to Tbone, upgrades required etc. I don't know if this is a problem from them being applied. Could someone step forward if they have done some maintenance please.

Same with the Bluepill forum, which is in "Debug mode"

If, the php is in Debug mode then that is a server side high admin problem...

could it have something to do with the google ads likwidtek was going to put up? some code error or something?

I agree with ket, sounds like something that might happen after an update....  

Ads... how far off are we on payment that we need ads... i've been planing on donating, but i've been bustin my ass at my various school projects and stuff.

Bluepill:

SELECT c.cat_id, c.cat_title, c.cat_order FROM phpbb_categories c, phpbb_forums f WHERE f.cat_id = c.cat_id GROUP BY c.cat_id, c.cat_title, c.cat_order ORDER BY c.cat_order

"FROM phpbb_categories c, phpbb_forums f WHERE"

Note the spaces.

EDIT:
This actually seems correct

Code: [Select]

$sql = "SELECT c.cat_title, c.cat_id, f.forum_name, f.forum_id  
FROM " . CATEGORIES_TABLE . " c, " . FORUMS_TABLE . " f
WHERE f.cat_id = c.cat_id
ORDER BY c.cat_id, f.forum_order";

Ok, I've heard about this ads thing pop up once or twice so let me put in my two cents on this in...

If a person or a group cannot afford somthing then it is obviously the wrong thing. First off I know that almost every member of FA would be willing to donate money for somthing that is important (aka. when I had to pay off Omegus to get FA back in game) But if we need to reach the extreme of ads on our nice site then we are doing somthing wrong, and it should be reconsidered and changed...

Sent a few bucks this aft

OK.... Now I can't even use the little new post icon without it giving me an error no new posts. Then it clears every other new post flag... dude lik. WTF. See what your ads have done...

[Ketamininja]

lol, i didn't even notice them, so thats what has done it?

[Kosila]

I get a "General Error: Invalid_session" when I try to move a topic from one forum to another.

[likwidtek]

All these issues are now fix and have nothing to do with the google ad at the bottom of the page.
