Oh please no.
Of course it can be fixed somehow.
But why setting up a new board with a software from the dark ages?
That needs to be completely rewitten to have even the basic features?

Please consider using a current software instead of fixing something that is horribly out of date.

The server shouldnt care about the codec inside a video file because the server doesnt decode it anyway. The browser is doing that.

The fact that Phutaba was forked from Wakaba, one of the oldest western chan softwares, and hasn't been maintained for years, yet has none of these bröplems, goes to show how janky vichan really is.

Well, Perl > PHP and Phutaba was made by Germans, rather than a coalition of Poles, Brazilians and USians, so there's that. :3

mp3 should be possible, I already uploaded some here. I assume the file (or the sum of all file sizes in the given post) was under 10MB? And do you use Dollchan?

>>36
Yes, that sounds reasonable, still I have no idea what else it could be that for most people mp4 just work fine, but a few people have major problems with this. From what I know now it sounds like an issue on client side, but what could such an issue even be? a file upload should be fairly standard, and I couldn't even think of a possible client issue here.

>>78
Yes, there seems to be some issue with catalog updates. Most pages you see are pre-generated by vichan in the background, so by the time you visit them, you get a pre-generated static html page. Very good for performance and database load reduction, especially good for cheapskates like us. But bad if those updates aren't triggered when a change in content happens, and my theory is that this is the problem: The catalog isn't updated when a thread is deleted. I just rebuild the pages manually, and the entry disappeared right away. Maybe it would also disappear if a new thread is created or something else, don't know yet. Anyway, thanks for the report, I doubt I can fix it at the moment, but I'll add it to the bugs list for tracking.

There's a pretty sharp spam protection availabe in the config, in fact it was so sharp that I had to disable it for now.

Not more than 30 secs for replies and maybe 5 mins for threads seems better. Even if the timer is short it already should pretty much stop every spam attempt, because the time adds up, if you really wanna spam in amounts, that matter/are important.
In general i support the idea, better than getting clarified as bot for posting wrong.

Ernstchan is a rather slow board. Hence the long suggested periods. Though they were suggestions and up for Ernst tire serious discussion. Tweaking the amount of seconds seems like the least important part on admin side. I'm guessing you can change it rather easily once implemented.

Can you try these:

$config['markup'][] = array("/\[b\](.+?)\[/b\]/", "<span style=\"font-weight: bold\">\$1</span>");
$config['markup'][] = array("/\[i\](.+?)\[/i\]/", "<span style=\"font-style: italic\">\$1</span>");
$config['markup'][] = array("/\[s\](.+?)\[/s\]/", "<span style=\"text-decoration: line-through\">\$1</span>");
$config['markup'][] = array("/\[u\](.+?)\[/u\]/", "<span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">\$1</span>");
$config['markup'][] = array("/\[spoiler\](.+?)\[/spoiler\]/", "dunno what to put here");
$config['markup'][] = array("/\[code\](.+?)\[/code\]/", "etc");

Although, not sure how this would work when you have multiple bbcodes for the same string, like [i][b]asd[/b][/i]
Maybe it's better to do this through tags than inline html? Your call though.

' is not a special character in regexp, but might be a special character in php or whatever else the string gets passed to. so you might need to escape it multiple times, or some other weird shit, I dunno. I have to deal with crap like that all the time when writing regexp inside an SQL query.

I'd recommend instead using ` . easy to reach, looks similar, and is not a special character.
I like ``asd`` for code line, and ```asd``` for code block, but your choice.

Oh, and if that doesn't work, try these:
$config['markup'][] = array("/\\[b\\](.+?)\\[/b\\]/", "<span style=\"font-weight: bold\">\$1</span>");
$config['markup'][] = array("/\\[i\\](.+?)\\[/i\\]/", "<span style=\"font-style: italic\">\$1</span>");
$config['markup'][] = array("/\\[s\](.+?)\\[/s\\]/", "<span style=\"text-decoration: line-through\">\$1</span>");
$config['markup'][] = array("/\\[u\\](.+?)\\[/u\\]/", "<span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">\$1</span>");
$config['markup'][] = array("/\\[spoiler\\](.+?)\\[/spoiler\\]/", "dunno what to put here");
$config['markup'][] = array("/\\[code\\](.+?)\\[/code\\]/", "etc");


Explanation. The following are special characters in regexp, and need to be escaped:
. , + , * , ? , ^ , $ , ( , ) , [ , ] , { , } , | , \

BUT. since you're calling from inside php, "\" itself is a special character, and you need to escape "\" with another "\". the "\\" gets converted to "\" and sent to regexp, and then [ and ] get escaped there.

Sometimes, latest replies don't show up, both on board pages, and even if you open the thread where the new post was made.

CTRL+F5 seems to fix the issue. Maybe there's a way to prevent pages from being cached?

>>253
Okay thanks. I checked the parts of the code which can trigger that error, unfortunately there a quite a few of them. I can't say which part was responsible for that behaviour, but I made some changes so that if it happens again, the error message will be more telling, so please report again it that happens with the exact error message, text or screenshot will do.

>>254
Thanks for the link, this is known, the article you referenced is the first one I came across when trying to fix this. If you want to check: This stuff has already been included in the source. I haven't found a way to prevent this, but I have at least a rough idea what the problem should be.

1. it's not a vichan issue: The index pages for each board are always up to date after a post is made (that's why F5 works)
2. I don't think it can be fixed in the HTML either, because the no-cache directives are already there

I know that vichan uses a built-in cache, which was recommended during install to "drastically enhance performance". I can only assume for now that this built-in cache only updates the freshly rebuilt contents after a given timespan, this timespan varies greatly, and it is heavily influenced by board activity. For example the first post on any day can take up to 40 minutes until it shows up when just clicking the board links and not pressing F5, while in the evening when it's more busy everything shows up instantly. I hope I will find it soon, and then I'll probably disable it completely and check out the performance hit, or at least drastically reduce the maximum time the delivery of cached content is allowed.

It's a mystery for me while this cache seems to respect F5, but not the meta-tags. Until now I thought those have the same effect and would even be indistinguishable for the server.

>>265
>>266
It's done, but despite it normally being configurable on board level, it seems I can only set it for all boards at once. The reason is as far as I understand that we use a vichan standard javascript library called local-time.js, which makes it possible to have local date and time instead of UTC everywhere, and this reads its date and time-config from the central config file instead of the individual board config. So unless I change it in the central config, it's ignored. That's also the reason why I thought it was already changed on /b/: It was, until the inclusion of local-time.js reverted the change.

Cool, thanks.
I wouldn't even mind a yyyyMMdd date format or not having localized time or anything, just not the silly MMddyyyy.

The caching issue when you made a post but didn't see it on the main page unless you pressed the reload button or F5 is likely fixed now. It was a weird problem with different kinds of html meta-tags which aren't allowed together, so browsers decided to ignore all no-cache directives set in the html. They are now set via the web server itself, so all board index pages now either give a 200 OK from the web server when there are new posts, or 304 not modified when there are none, but there are no 200 OK with "disk cache" as source any longer. The page can still be taken from the local cache though, but not without first having been revalidated with the server as the latest version.

In theory it might still happen the other way round, when a thread is opened in a separate window and misses a post that is already shown on the main page, though I've never seen it. If you find any issues that a post you know exists doesn't show up on either the index or the thread page, please report here.

Bumplock wurde ursprünglich gesetzt, weil der Faden aussah wie eine Mischung aus kopierten Nachrichtenmeldungen und Scheißewerferei. Dann wurde ein weiterer Kriegsfaden eröffnet, der geschlossen wurde mit Verweis auf den bestehenden Kriegsfaden, der aber zu diesem Zeitpunkt schon auf Bumplock stand. Das wirkt natürlich so, als solle das Thema als Ganzes wegmoderiert werden, das ist allerdings nicht der Fall.

Wir haben das im Moderationsteam besprochen: Kriegsfäden sollen erlaubt sein, auch wenn die nicht Jedem gefallen. Das gilt schließlich auch für Drachenlord-Fäden. Außerdem gibt es auf /int/ auch einen Kriegsfaden, und dort funktioniert er ohne Probleme.

Wir nehmen den Bumplock daher wieder raus, und werden im Faden gegebenenfalls aufräumen, falls uns dort im weiteren Verlauf einseitiges Geschille des Typs Shitmany/Urine oder sonstiges Gestänkere auffällt. Kriegsfäden haben leider einen Ruf, besonders "meinungsstarke" Pfostierer anzuziehen, allerdings möchten wir explizit nicht, dass deshalb das ganze Themengebiet verboten wird. Sonst könnten Störer sich so einen Mechanismus in Zukunft zu Nutze machen, indem sie unliebsame Fäden zukrebsen, bis sie verboten werden. Das soll bei uns nicht möglich sein.

Problem is known, the reason for this is that both the auto updater and the time adjuster are javascripts, and the time adjuster only runs on initial page load, so the newly fetched posts are base time zone, which is UTC. It's possible to fix this, not sure if I can do it though, might be a little messy. but thanks for the reports. In any case, just like >>316 already mentioned, a reload will fix the existing posts.

I have seen posts who complained about this exact thing actually happening, so I now implemented a server-side directive that all html pages always must be revalidated upon load. I don't think the performance hit is relevant here, and it should fix the issue that you ever get to see content that's not equal to the latest content on the server, no matter if overview or thread page.

No idea if it's a bug or my laptop trackpad mousebuttons, but today I had a doublepost going off twice and getting a "flood detected" message.
What I mean is I pressed "Reply" and I got the message "flood detected" because apparently the post got sent correctly first and then immediately it tried to send it again.

Yes, this is true. I think Dollchan overrides the normal file selector script, and while the normal file selector script won't add any new input elements when there are already four of them present, Dollchan does not recoginze the limit. I am not sure why this is the case, it could be that the presence of the button for another file selector (which does not do anything when the maximum number is reached) is confusing Dollchan, and it replaces the not working button with a working element of it's own, and if the user tries to add a fifth file, it is rejected by the post processing routine. This is just speculation on my part, though. In any case, uploading more than four files isn't possible, no matter if Dollchan is used or not.

>>361
>>363
Yes, this scenario will result in a flood detected message. If multiple identical messages are posted in a short time, this is regarded as a flood attempt. Don't worry though, the first post should go through, and there is no autoban or whatsoever. Worst thing that could happen is an increased cooldown for posting, but even that will disappear after a short time.

How did you even do it? No idea if that is different when NOT using dollchan but I have to check a box on the post (or thread if first post) I want to delete, then scroll down to the end of the page and click delete. No way I could do such a thing by accident.

It is implemented, threads that are older than one day can't be deleted by the user (mods still can of course) from now on, it will yield an error message that the thread is too old. I don't recommend trying it out on your favourite 200 reply thread! I also noticed a weird behaviour that sometimes I have the error message that the password would be wrong when trying to delete a thread. That is not related to the change in code, in fact that is an existing similar routine that prevents deletion under given circumstances, I don't know why this seems to have false positives on occasions. If you encounter any of this, please leave a report.

I couldn't notice any changes in loading speed so far, for me EC is consistently fast. Can you give some more details? When it loads slow, does it seem like the connection is established quick, but the resources load slow one after the other, like one picture, then the next one, and so on? And is it faster when you reload it right away? Also when you (or anybody else reading this) notices that EC is slow again: Could you open the developer tools of your browser (usually F12), click the network tab, load EC and check for any significant lags? Maybe it's a single resource that causes the trouble. I'd also be interested in where the majority of the items on the page are delivered from. In any case: Most items should be delivered by either disk cache or memory. If not that might be the reason why it feels slow, and in that case it might be a caching issue.

Board.jpg (38.16 KB, 541x286)

Catalog.jpg (461.31 KB, 1853x641)

I think I just found a weird bug: I was searching the Dokumentationen-thread on /b/ and couldn't find it while schrolling through the pages. I almost got mad because I thought it got deleted, but then I saw it is in the catalog on 1st position of page two. Strangely it wouldn't show up when I tried to navigate to page two, the next thread was shown on position 1 (Sauffaden). The behaviour was the same whether I used Dollchan or not.

I bumped the Dokumentation-thread and then it showed normally on page one. I deleted the bump, then it correctly fell back to first spot on page two, form that point on it was fixed, likely because one of my actions caused a thread list to rebuild. I can only assume that some event on the board (maybe thread creation/deletion) caused the internal thread table to fuck up and simply miss out on one thread, while the catalogue still worked correctly. While I doubt this can be fixed easily, because it's specific as fuck, people should be aware that this bug exists, even if it took a year for someone to notice.

See screenshots for details, the documentation thread does not show on the board on page transition, while still existing in the catalogue on page 2 pos 1. It does not matter if pages are switched manually or via dollchan infinite scrolling, so the scrolling function works, it's probably some internal thread list that is delivered to those scroll functions that's already flawed.

Applied a fix that should work on most instances of the problem, the element in question now has a min-width-property, so no matter how slim the thumbnail is, the element will retain a minimum-width of 150px, which is enough for the filename in the example. Might still look shit with longer non-wrappable filenames though.

It's usually a provider issue. You can easily check this by opening the radio page: If it's also slower than usual: Provider issue. Sadly it happens almost daily these days, which is especially bad for the radio. Temporarily slow loading times on a slow board aren't a big deal, but streams, which rely on real-time communication, will cut off, which sucks.

It is intended, I think we started to allow it when someone wanted to make an image dump, and had to type in random shit to get his posts through, which of course is annoying. Best option would be to deny posts which contain neither text nor images, but there's no config option for that, we'd have to implement this by ourselves.
