• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    someone hacked my site...

    Just an FYI, I had an out of date Mambo install and They got the entire site. Everything was deleted, only the DB itself survived. *shrug* So now I put everything on myspace...let someone else worry about that stuff. After all, they have a vested (re: financial) interest in staying up...

    php/mysql web site starter kit with forum capability?

    Holy... Why would you recommend PHP-Nuke? That's like telling someone to smoke for their health. PHP-Nuke and it's derivatives suffer from a lot of useability problems, bloat, and security problems. If you need a professional site (and it sounds like you do), you're going to have to do a...

    PHPNuke resources

    No offense, but the best thing to do with PHPNuke is rm -rf and do more research to find a product that more closely fits your needs with better security and performance. I used to be a nuker, but once I really sat down and planned out my site, I found Mambo to be awesome for my purposes, and...

    Me and my friend have a bet, settle it for us...

    To make shit really simple, the RIGHT way, IMHO, is to plug all the images and descriptions into an instance of OSCommerce, and let that deal with enlarging (which it does nicely, in a new window, without a popup blocker killing it). Try it out at http://www.peda.info/catalog/ I have an...

    search engines?

    Agree with the above post. I am not nearly as knowledgeable about SEO, but my BCDC++ mirror does well because: 1. It is pretty much plain HTML, and easily indexed. That is not to say you can't use dynamic content, but whatever package you use needs to have the ability to be "GoogleTapped"...

    Best Places To Find Postnuke Themes

    As always, be careful with *Nuke-based CMS packages, and do your due diligence in respects to security of the package. I prefer Mambo myself - www.peda.info That's the cleanest it's ever looked, and I blame it all on the CMS :) BC

    Quick Question

    Hmm, quick answers for a quick question. The depth and veracity of the answers are partly based on their brevity, so feel free to research as appropriate. If you learn PHP5 and find yourself in a PHP4-only environment, I would say 99% of the stuff you want to do will be possible with little...

    Dreamweaver Assistance needed.

    I did this once for a corp website with javascripting. Basically, it detected the machine resolution, then chose an image (1 of 6) that I had put on the server for the background image. So I had 6 different-sized versions of the same image for the six major resolutions we were seeing in our...

    reccomend me some web apps/scripts

    PHPNuke sucks, way too hackable, and overfeatured. Typically broken out of the box as well. Mambo has no calendaring that I have seen, but maybe I just didn't turn it on. Also no forums. I use it for PEDA.info though. Maybe Invision has something along your needs? BC

    I need some help. *** Money involved!! ***

    In other words, you're trying to duplicate what Dell.com does on their website when you design a computer to your specs. Have fun, way too much work for the peanuts you are throwing. BC
