Thanks boRg your explaination.
 
I agree with you that maintain a Lite version along side the main version really time consuming.  Confused You have done a superb job with this Lite version.  Clap So far no major problems occur.  Only a few minor issues.

1. I'll have to look into it to make sure the date format is not storedin an application variable. I thought it was changed in the Liteversion, but trying to maintain a Lite version along side the mainversion gets very confusing as to what files are updated.

2. 30 December 1899 is the date at which ASP/VB Script starts, if it'sreturning that date then for some reason it means the date is beingfeed incorrectly into the system and VB Script is defaulting to it's start date. Often these type of date errors areas a result of LCID settings on the server.

It has been always one month.  No major problems encounter so far.  The "Lite" version really worked with problem.
 
Only have some minor problems:
 
1/ The date display format changed everytime I logon.
e.g. 07-02-05 set as default
 
Sometimes changed to 07/02/05 or 07 February 2005.
Still don't know how it change itself ?? Confused
 
Everytime I need to go inside
Forum Date and Time Settings > click Update Date and Time Format
to reset it again.
Really confuse ?? Confused
 
2/ Each time edit the content.  Use any account display date always at Edited by xxxxxx on 30 December 1899 at 1:00pm
 
Still don't know how it happen ?
Why not display current modify date instead ? Confused
Why only display same old date and time ? Cry

There isn't a feature to disallow usernames online, but there is a function that holds usernames that are not allowed if you edit the file, 'functions/functions_common.asp' in the function 'disallowedMemberNames'
 
Thanks in advance.  I also understood it really hard to make adjust using a cut down version suitable to run on free hosting servers. Confused
 
You have done a great job for all ASP beginners so far.  I really appreciate your time and effort you spend to give us a better forum. Clap 
 
Looking forward to see v8.0 release soon. Tongue

The reason why allot of hosts are either good support for ASP or PHP,is that ASP runs well on Windows web servers and PHP runs well on Unixservers.

ASP is written by MS and although you can get ASP support on Unixsystems through 3rd party software they often lack all the fetaures ofASP on Windows IIS.

This means that Web Wiz Forums will only run on a Windows IIS web server and not a Unix/Linux web servers.

I have just uploaded another version of the Lite version, if it don'twork this time then I'm dumping the Lite version as it is more troublethan it's worth.

There isn't a feature to disallow usernames online, but there is afunction that holds usernames that are not allowed if you edit thefile, 'functions/functions_common.asp' in the function'disallowedMemberNames'

If you can, go for a paid hosting account and use the full version, where you won't encounter such problems.
 
I totally agree with you.  Big smile
 
The use of free hosting account is to test drive your Web Wiz Forums before actual commit to use your full version. Smile
 
Also I would like my staff to try if this is better than PHPBB.  I personally prefer your forum as it is simple and not those fancy settings.  But I need to setup a lite version for them test drive before using full version. Ouch
 
As you know some host company only provide one support.  Either using PHP or ASP.  But lack of host companies support of both.  Making a good choice really hard. Confused
 
Could you try your best to fix the problem I encounter above ?  After try in Category name and set those Forum settings.  Clicking submit changes cause the error message: Ermm
 
ADODB.Recordset error '800a0cc1'
Item cannot be found in the collection corresponding to the requested name or ordinal.
/forum/admin/forum_details.asp, line 171
 
Do the full version has Username Disallow Control ? Stern Smile

Error occur when trying to configure the Lite version 7.9a
 
After create Forum name, then Select Forum Category and type in Forum Details and their Generic Forum Permissions.  When click "Submit Forum Details", an error pop out:
 
ADODB.Recordset error '800a0cc1'
Item cannot be found in the collection corresponding to the requested name or ordinal.

Anyone got the similar error message when using this version ? Confused

Do you have such kind of features to ban names to register ?  If so, can you ban such names in Chinese too ?
 
e.g. administrator is default logon.
 
I don't want someone logon as Administrator, admin, Admin, author.  Or do I need to register those names I mentioned above ?
 
Thanks a million.
