Just released what Bitcointa.lk is lol...I thought it was some sort of cached/archived version of this site (and I know now to a degree it is) - anyway just signed up and wont need to bother using this old version anymore.

Nice work!

No, you are completely right. However trying to detect scammer is slightly more complicated than that. If you click on the user profile, the informations are loaded using ajax, so you won't have to load another page. Registration date, posts, activity, all there. Also, the activity is used to generate custom user names (as in this forum). Use that as a first filter Smiley
I will try to make some additional informations appear under the avatar/userbit of the post, but I also want to keep it as clean as possible.

Yes, it's a rushed feature that is finished client side (extension side) but was never coded on my side. I need to fix that.

The number of posts is visible in home on the right sidebar, there is also a per-forum counter in the forum list.
When I buy items on this forum I want to see if this someone has just made a new account or is a long term member.
Now I have to click on the name and check their posts, but ideally I would see it right under their profile picture.
But that is just my opinion.

I am having issues with syncing:

When I click import, the button turns gray and it is not imported.
Also where is the number of posts on the new forum,  I liked that.

Great mobile experience so far, I'm only missing an iOS home screen icon.
Will add it Smiley

Using this now. Considering I love XenForo more than SMF, this is great. Smiley Great job!

For me, XenForo misses a lot of my beloved features and mods. That's basically it, I could stand it if it had mods say bringing it closer to vBulletin or MyBB, but if it does I rarely see them used.

I liked the idea, but...XenForo. I dislike XenForo massively.
I'm sorry to hear that, is there a specific reason? Just out of curiosity, because the overwhelming majority likes it Smiley

Just FYI, for the second day in a row our crawler got banned at around 4AM GMT. Just fixed it. However somehow a new bug was introduced and we lost the posts from 4AM up to now.
Something changed, because this kind of problems were handled properly before.

Again, I'm sorry for those disrupts in the service.

It's a cache error.

#1 try to click "Refresh" a few times, until the text changes to "loading". If it does and you are logged in on Bitcointalk.org/lk, the error should disappear.
#2 always while logged in, disable and re enable the extension.

I'm sorry for this problem. The project is growing and i should use more time improving it.

I have a problem when trying to install the extension.

Some days ago I linked my account, but just today I installed the Chrome extension. Then I went to https://bitcointa.lk/pages/browser-extension/, but it says
Quote
Extension Error: Account not liked. Refresh
Clicking Refresh does nothing.

When I try to link my account again, it says that
Quote
This username is already linked. We don't allow it to be linked twice.
which makes sense.

I'm doing all this logged in as R2D221 in bitcointa.lk (I can be sure because I can see my name in the top right corner, and my photo in the menu that pops).

Learning the troll avoidance button :)
I've spent most of my free time since when i woke up with the news spreading of the closure of MtGox on a project for an alternative forum. So, here it is.


This is neat did not notice this was around until Friedcat made a post then deleted it so I thought it was just an archive site and not a renovated 2.0 forum now I look forward to seeing it grow

And we are now at 100 linked users in 20 days. Awesome! Smiley
I will have some time to work on this project starting on the 10th of April (by some time i really mean "some" time). If you have some important feature you would like to be added, apart from the bugs described above, let me know Smiley

1) pre: the guy posted raw html content and later converted it to bbcode, however the edits weren't imported on bitcointa.lk because of the robot access speed limitations theymos is imposing. I will get around it.
2) the thread was initially posted on Bitcoin Discussion and later moved to Alt. Cc. The crawler uses the original forum. (another thing to fix).

Libertas a calumnia
It is possible. But i don't want to put a link every page.
We can do something like:
https://bitcointa.lk/org/threads/bitcointa-lk-the-bitcointalk-community-with-a-2014-forum-software.281718/page-3#post-5710434
Redirecting to .org

That would be nice, and I don't see the problem of having a link in every page.

Other problems I'm seeing for example going to https://bitcointa.lk/index.php?topic=549112.0 :

- text inside
 tags does not get correctly rendered

- the breadcrumbs (path to forums) should be:
Quote
Bitcoin Forum > Other > Alternate cryptocurrencies > Why Bitcoin Could be Beat.
while on bitcointa.lk I see:

Home Forums > Bitcoin > Bitcoin Discussion >
