Right now I see on the Board index: Registered users: Google [Bot], RP
What is Google [Bot]? Part of the software?

Google Bot -> Google is visiting this site. Like other search engines they use a bot to index sites for their search.

Tanks for asking. I am in contact with the developer of a similar plugin for this forum software but his software works only in the admin control panel so far. I have asked the phpbb3 community for an attachment list too but there are no replies until today. I even got a warning from the moderators and have learned that I am not allowed to "recruit" someone for developing what we need.

So the answer is: I cannot promise anything new on this topic within short time. If I could do this myself, I definitely would. What I can do is invoking the help of the members, which I will do in a separate thread now.

Some news about the List of uploads

Post by yeppie »

I have just installed a workaround for the missing List-of-Uploads problem. If you have a look at the toplinks (next to Chat), you will find two new links. One (Files Archives) links to the page where active members can enter the Archives (should you ever forget the link). The other one (Uploads) links to a temporary directory where I have uploaded all current attachments manually. There are no extra functions, just the files you may want to download (you can sort them by "last edit" or "file name").
As said before this is only meant as a temporary workaround. We might get a better solution soon as a first reply to my appeal for php experts has been made.

No more workaround needed.

The new List of all Attachments is installed!

You will find it if you click on Uploads in the top-links.
