Forum System

development version: 1.03
stable version: 1.00

This is the code that runs http://technolust.forums.prv.pl/. Written just for fun and education. The idea of this forum system was to not only give my friends an online discussion forum, but to build other services and integrate them into the system. An example of such service is the Ticket Reservation System, which I successfully used for quite a bit of time. The code is dirty, ugly and unfinished in many areas, but worked fine for my purposes. Today the forum is no longer really active. As I'm not really proud of this code, I believe it would be a waste not to share something I spend a couple of months developing.

To update the post tables from the 1.0 stable release to the current development version use this update script. The first and only argument is the location of the file to unpack into the current directory containing the new forum. Example:

sd@infinity ~/web/forum $ ./import.sh ../forum-1.03.tar.bz2
