I can't believe getting everything back up and running took that long. I hope future downtimes are not as long as this one was.

SourceForge fault. Storage fault, in fact:

It was too long.

I find myself starting to think about site transfer to other host...
SF continues to kill their own reputation.

But not without loss. The little changes I've made to the website during the past month have disappeared.

Oh pity, and I had thought they had restored everything because the latest forum messages have shown up again. But of course the forum is only a part of the whole thing.

But now that you talk about little changes... Does that happen to include the "recent messages" in the navigation line? That's something I had missed for YEARS, and just recently searched for it in vain again! Or perhaps just overlooked it all the time?? No idea, but great in any case

Heh... great thing!
It was'n there earlier! Cool!

Yeah, I've just added this one after seeing it in the admin.

Dorian,
how can I add (or edit) russian translation for forum GUI strings?

Well, they DIDN'T FIX the 503 errors since I just had one occur.

I thought that forum is gone forever.

Luckily, I was mistaken.

I check every day and it seems a long time.
The downloads are back some days ago.
But restoring a lot of data takes time...
At least it works now

Dorian,

That is what you want to translate I suppose :

$PHORUM["DATA"]["LANG"]["mod_recent_messages"] = array(
    'RecentMessages' => 'Recent Messages',
    'Messages'       => 'Newest messages',
    'Threads'        => 'Newest topics',
    'UpdatedThreads' => 'Updated topics',
    'FromAnyForum'   => 'From any forum',
    'NoGrouping'     => 'No grouping',
    'GroupByDate'    => 'Group by date',
    'GroupByForum'   => 'Group by forum',
    'GroupByFolder'  => 'Group by folder',
    'OlderMessages'  => 'Older messages',
    'NewerMessages'  => 'Newer messages'
);

Give me the translation and I'll add it

I should ask you about the context for 'Newest messages', 'Newest topics' and 'Updated topics':

is it about sorting threads for display?

$PHORUM["DATA"]["LANG"]["mod_recent_messages"] = array(
    'RecentMessages' => 'Свежие записи',
    'Messages'       => 'Новые ответы',
    'Threads'        => 'Недавние темы',
    'UpdatedThreads' => 'Темы с новыми ответами',
    'FromAnyForum'   => 'Из всех форумов',
    'NoGrouping'     => 'Не группировать',
    'GroupByDate'    => 'Группировка по дате',
    'GroupByForum'   => 'Группировка по форуму',
    'GroupByFolder'  => 'Группировка по папке', //??? what the folder?
    'OlderMessages'  => 'Старые записи',
    'NewerMessages'  => 'Новые записи'

Also I want to retranslate 2 'ugly' strings

    '"Follow Topic" option checked by default:' => 'По умолчанию следить за моими новыми темами:',
    'Messages list'       => 'Список тем',

The last one isn't a mistranslated string but general incorrectness: Messages list actually is a thread list as I can see :cool:

So did I.

But we're only the ones who found it. How many will be lost and not come back because they can't find it?

Thank you, Dorian, for updating ru-localization of our Forum!

Also it works faster now - great job whatever you've changed!

Since the last update I often get kinda weird errors when trying to post, being somehow pseudo-logged in but not fully, and when posting there's a strange error message. Something with needing a trouble ticket and fixing it myself by clicking a link and emailing boisso (dorian)...
Cannot quite figure out why and how to fix reproducable, sometimes it helps to clear cookies and log in again, but mostly that just produces the same error again... won't let me in... Other times the culprit seems to be the "default" UA, and when switching to my usual fake one (quite simmilar) it suddenly works again! Anyone else having such probs??

My feeling is the forum gets a bit confused with my toggling cookies on/off and often using parallel sessions due to macro testing...but not sure...
