Here is the direct download link for the ALPHA of 4.3. If you are not a github user, you can download here...
https://github.com/mudmin/UserSpice43dev...master.zip

If you're using git, you will probably want to drop/reimport your database every time there is a new update of the db since tables will be changing frequently.

Full patches will be available for beta.

I pushed out all of Brandin's messaging system mods. This one required updating the users table and the message_threads table, so at this point, it's probably going to be easier to just drop/reimport the db when doing these updates. This is alpha software. We'll make it integrate with patches when we get to beta.

I'm numbering my mini "releases" of the alpha.

Note - This version has an additional data table called MQTT. Please update. For your convenience, you can either reimport the entire db or just the mqtt table. If you do just the table, you'll have to go into the admin_pages and let it detect the new mqtt_settings.php page

New Features -
MQTT Publish has been added and has been customized to allow you to connect to as many servers as you want. For those not in the know, MQTT is the digital "wiring" that connects a lot of IOT devices. You basically "publish" messages that IOT devices "subscribe" to. Each message has a topic and a message. For instance, in my Escape Room, I can publish a message with at topic of ATM and a message of 1 2 or 3 to trigger the relay 1, 2, or 3 in the ATM and make it drop whatever is in that slot. Because I built in the ability to publish to multiple servers, your mqtt call looks like this...

Hello all!

I have put a lot of work into my Cron Manager and finally have it done! I will include it and a few of the crons I run for you to use if your heart so desires I use my cPanel Cron Manager to run the script daily at 4:30am.

I've installed and set up UserSpice 4.2. I recall from a video there are a couple of lines of code I need to add to any file to make it 'UserSpice ready'. I don't remember where I saw that. Is that code here in the forums somewhere?

Also, the home page, I got confused. It looks like you bought UserCake but the way the headings are, it looks like the download of '4.2' is a download of UserCake. Might want to add a 'Download UserSpice' heading there.

Thanks.

With more community involvement, I've decided to do what I'm calling a "rolling alpha" on github. I'm going to work on pushing out all the community supplied (and my own ported from other projects) updates and features. The software will be extremely unstable and is not ready for public use, but you're welcome to grab it and provide feedback whenever you want. This is the forum for that sort of thing.

PLEASE NOTE: My github-fu is terrible and github has screwed me up more than it has helped me, so if you want me to merge something into the code that is going to be tricky, providing some git commands here is always helpful.

Since this code doesn't belong on production servers, I'm using an "installed" version as the repo. If you're on xampp/wamp/lamp/mamp you can just create a db called 43 with root as the username and no password and you won't even have to mess with the init.php file. The sql dump is in the root of the repo.

As it stands at this posting, 4.3.000 is 4.2.9 that has been installed and had its user_spice.ver.php file changed. That's it.

With that said...here is the repo...

I'm back! It was a great summer, but the weather is getting colder in Alaska and that means it's time to code. I have tons of modifications provided by the community as well as some features on my own wish list. So many that I think it's worth developing an Alpha and calling it 4.3 Alpha. This will allow us to keep patching bugs as they pop up on 4.2 and make one giant upgrade after people have had some time to bang on all these mods.

Thoughts?

Hi. I installed US into a subdir called "users" which I had previously set up to be a subdomain. No problems.

I then noticed that paths ended up like "users.mydomain.com/users/....." Effectively, I had "mydomain.com/users/users/....." So, I decided to reinstall into the public_html folder on my site with the goal being to get paths like "users.mydomain.com". For some reason, that is producing all manner of issues.

I then tried an experiment. I deleted the subdomain, and reinstalled in public_html. That went fine and I ended up with links like "mydomain.com/users/....". However, when I re-created the subdomain of "users" hoping to get "users.mydomain.com/....", I now get these errors immediately...

Warning: require_once(/MY_ABSOLUTE_PATH/public_html/users/users/helpers/helpers.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /MY_ABSOLUTE_PATH/public_html/users/init.php on line 22

Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/MY_ABSOLUTE_PATH/public_html/users/users/helpers/helpers.php' (include_path='.:/opt/php70/lib/php') in /MY_ABSOLUTE_PATH/public_html/users/init.php on line 22


Note the "users/users" aspect in the warning. Is there a known issue with installing US on subdomains?

Hi Everybody,

I get a error in function first in DB Class.
