TapTalk's PM reply is broken

Postby Snowgun on Wed Dec 21, 2011 10:40 am

Ok, I thought it was just me, but it works for all the other forums I use on Taptalk.

I can read messages, but every time I write one in reply and hit send, I get some crazy error message. (This is on taptalk)

Does anyone else have this problem?

I know nobody actually admins this forum, but in case I'm wrong or someone has some access, could someone look into this? I have a feeling i'm pissing in the wind here, but its real annoying and I thought I would make the effort.

I have the same problem. I can't create or reply PMs.
I love it when a plan comes together!

Well, since this ship is without a captain, it probably won't get fixed any time either. Why doesn't rutger give someone real admin access? People chip into his legal defense fund and for thanks he abandons this forum?

Why not give it to someone who gives a ****?

There are two people with admin access that frequent the forum. Has anyone bothered to contact the global mods regarding this?

I always forget about this problem until I try responding to a PM on my phone or tablet... I go GRRRRRR! then hop on my laptop and forget until the next time.

Thanks for raising awareness.

Who?...

I figured whoever is vigilant enough to secretly delete posts everywhere would eventually see this thread, especially if we swear or topic drift enough. ;)

Come on. Surely you know how it works. There's one absent owner which the only real power around here references when he needs justification. the other mod is hardly listened too. It's a pro forma thing.

Tootsie and David.

But then I was assuming that you actually wanted to get the issue fixed, not just use this to have another excuse to bitch about the folks that moderate here.

My bad. :|

I actually don't keep up on who moderates, it seems to change every month. I was also under the impression that those two only had moderation access and not admin access. But if you say so I'll drop them a line.

You're pretty good, maybe they should make you a moderator/admin? 8-)

PM sent.

Hopefully someone has access, it would be cool to get this running. :)

The error on my Android device is:

"SQL error {mysqli}Uknown Column "g.group_max_recipients" in 'field list' [1054] A SQL error occurred while fetching this page.

From the Tapatalk support forum:

Current phpbb plugin is fully tested on 3.0.3 and later. Problem like missing field 'group_max_recipients' will only happen on forum system lower than 3.0.3.
However you can just remove below code in file mobiquo/function/create_message.php to see if it works:


// Get maximum number of allowed recipients
$sql = 'SELECT MAX(g.group_max_recipients) as max_recipients
FROM ' . GROUPS_TABLE . ' g, ' . USER_GROUP_TABLE . ' ug
WHERE ug.user_id = ' . $user->data['user_id'] . '
AND ug.user_pending = 0
AND ug.group_id = g.group_id';
$result = $db->sql_query($sql);
$max_recipients = (int) $db->sql_fetchfield('max_recipients');
$db->sql_freeresult($result);

http://www.tapatalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5380

.. Looks like the solution is either to try modifying the configuration file as indicated above OR upgrading the phpbb version this board runs on to a more current version. I'm not sure if this would be possible for anyone but the top level board administrator with root access to the server(s) the forum is running on currently.
