Link Checker With Default SMF Theme

It’s the first modification of its kind for SMF and works extremely well, we’re using it on Warez-DnB.

You can download here.

There is no doubt that Facebook is working hard to innovate and give the opportunity to their million of users to personalize even more their profiles. I wonder what new options will Facebook bring in the near future?

Facebook usernames will be available in basic text forms, and you can only choose a single username for your profile and for each of the Pages that you administer. Your username must be at least five characters in length and only include alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9), or a period or full stop (”.”). While usernames are currently available only for Romanized text, we’re looking at how we might support non-Romanized characters in the future.

Think carefully about the username you choose. Once it’s been selected, you won’t be able to change or transfer it. If you signed up for a Facebook Page after May 31 or a user profile after today at 3 p.m. EDT, you may not be able to sign up for a username immediately because of steps we’ve taken to prevent abuse or “squatting” on names.

You can get yours at www.facebook.com/username on a first-come, first-serve basis

Ive got mine

Warez-DnB is a project my flatmate and I are working on. Currently we have 35 members, this is a Rapidshare link exclusive forum that is for various music; Breakbeat, Dubstep, Hip Hop, Electronic and Mixes

To get this forum online there where a few challenges, first we needed to find a host that would allow rapidshare links. http://altushost.com/ provided this.

Secondly we wanted guests to be able to view the forum and pages, but have the links hidden (forcing them to register).

This turned out to be pretty simple as well, searching for any instance of

‘tag’ => ‘code’,

On the line below it will say

‘content’ => ‘

‘ . $txt['code'] . ‘: ‘ . $txt['code_select'] . ‘

$1‘,

After “‘content’ => ”
Add $user_info['is_guest'] ? ‘Register to see codes!’ :

So it will look like this

‘content’ => $user_info['is_guest'] ? ‘Register to see codes!’ : ‘

‘ . $txt['code'] . ‘: ‘ . $txt['code_select'] . ‘

$1‘,

We’re still busy working on a LinkChecker mod written in Ruby, but the website is doing pretty well. If you like Drum & Bass you can become a member for free at. http://www.warez-dnb.com/index.php?action=register
