| O.K. NightRider I'm ready to do the Drafts mod. I would have tried it myself as is but I want the button under the post box like here. |

What version of the MOD are you attempting to install? I have 1.0.17c so if there is a newer version, I would need a link to the MOD topic and download...

Glenn, I think someone pointed out that our Save as Draft utility has been broken for a while and I haven't gotten around to figuring out what happened to it. It used to work well, so I'm sure some important code was overwritten somewhere along the line. I need to make time to figure this out for those who want to use it...

Ahhh ok, so I'm not going mad afterall? Don't answer that lol
No problem. I really can't see why you would need to save a draft anyway  |

I'm not really sure that anyone ever really used it when it was working, but I'm sure it could come in handy for some people...
I just found out that we're about 12 versions behind on the Save as Drafts MOD, so it may take a bit to get it updated. It's very possible that a phpBB Update is what broke it. Asinshesq, the MOD author, provided Update files for each update, but he didn't include anything that jumped from 1.0.15, our currently installed version, to 1.0.25, the current version, so I'm not sure how I want to proceed. It may be easier just to remove the origninal MOD code and install the newest version...

Save as Draft is handy if you're composing a message and have to quit for some reason (a screming kid, overflowing bathtub or loose snake, that sort of thing LOL).
I tried using it once when I had a big post and Submit wasn't working for some reason, kept getting an error. Not sure if Save as Draft was broken at that time or not.
Possible that it won't work anyway if there is a problem with the server? When the Submit button won't submit?

Well I don't want to try it till NR figures out how to proceed. Esp since I already know I want the button moved.
Will just keep this topic watched. |
