I'm *not* providing support to free customers, because (1) I don't have the time (you'll understand why in a few months and then you'll probably apologize for wasting my time at a critical moment), (2) the SMF team banned me and I have no reasons and no interest in helping them.
well perhaps the piece of crap as you put it is due to expire and i was thinking of purchasing AM after trying the free version. but lets face it would after the responses i have received ?
1/ I'm not your thing.
2/ I'm not looking for your money.
3/ I answered your PMs. Twice. Even though everywhere I say I don't provide PM support.
4/ I answered your post here. Even though it says no support. You could have just asked over at sm.org for support. That's the place for it. You know, the place where I'm banned.
5/ Again: I don't need your frigging money. Do not EVER use money as an incentive to get my attention. You won't get it. Paying customers get my attention. People who ask for support HERE (or ask for a specific feature to be implemented for them) and expect to get my attention will at the VERY best get ignored. Not because I'm evil. But because, heck, GO COMPLAIN TO THE SMF TEAM INSTEAD.

As for what Robbo said, it was basically an indictment of the Charter system - remember at the time RC3 came out, the Charters didn't get a free preview, they got it no earlier than anyone else, so it got into a huge argument over why people bothered.
Hmm... You probably remember why the CMs didn't get a preview. RC3 was very late, and there were rumors that SMF was dead, because of the team split. So, basically, they pushed RC3 to an early release just so they could show the ex-teamies that they were still in control. (Of course, soon after the release of RC3, all of the dev team resigned... Err... What a mess.)

He was fuming, and some of your and his arguments seem a little familiar, you know? (Because at that point, it felt like a PR stunt and that the people who would be able to inject life were being trampled on)
I'm afraid I really don't see the connection with me here.

(And I wouldn't have complained about not getting an early release. CM is not for early releases. It's for supporting SMF, and getting premium support from SMF as well.)

Better question: why use AeMe if you already paid out for the other piece of crap?
(Both AeMe and SGP are time-limited licenses.)
(Actually, AeMe used to have a time limit of 5 years so it was really cheap... But I barely sold any copy with that time limit in place. Slashing the price by 2 and the time limit by 5 made sales actually start.)
(Somehow I think a 1-month limited copy with no support at $10 would be even more successful. Lol. Or I could just sell support & software separately.)

i know there is no support for AM 1 but here goes
And... What exactly didn't you get in that? :unsure:

154
I don't think that was entirely deliberate. But note that Aeva is right at the top, next to... wait, what? What the hell am I doing there in big letters?! :/
Believe it or not, you're a big influence :P
Aeva is in all-caps, which is not the intended way to write it (never has been.)

Oh, the person who said you weren't a team player also told me that he's glad I'm not on the team, because apparently that he respected me meant I had to automatically show him respect. (Nope: in my world, things you say and do earn you respect, not just receive it because you give it)
Hmm... Strange.
I never lacked Nibogo any respect. Actually, I've always been friendly to him, and I believe he was always friendly to me. Which is why I'm surprised he's saying this of me.
I mean, if you can't trust the people you work with... -_-

Btw, you should have seen the stuff Robbo posted in the Charter board months ago. He's not really much different to you in reality, though I can see why he thinks differently.
No, I haven't seen what he posted. What was it about?

155
It means not sending PMs. But I can read mine at least...
Well well.

http://www.simplemachines.org/...unity/index.php?topic=397276.0Funny how I'm next to "bugs"... Is that a reference to my record as a beta tester? :sifflote:
And my position is right on spot, too... I'm at the bottom, crushed by the entire rest.

BTW, nice to know what the beta team thinks of me when I'm not supposed to be able to read...
Quote from Nibogo
Oh and Nao wasn't a team player...
How can I *be* a team player when I never was let into the team in the first place? (And that's not a rethorical question...)
Quote from Robbo_
I see. He is just so arrogant.
Well, sure. I'm telling the truth about being exploited, and I'm being told it's a load of bollocks and banned, and *I'm* the arrogant one...
And thanks runic for posting just after him, and totally ignoring his comment. -_-

Also, to YogiBear:

You do now need to be a member in order to download 1.3a
No... It's never been the case. How would the download counter reach into the thousands when registration is mandatory? People can even write here without being registered...
They only need to be registered to purchase AeMe2, which is only logical because access is tied to an account.

Hey there,
Thanks for the continued work on AEVA Lite... I know SOME people use it... LOL.
Yeah... I never planned to stop updating it actually. Just supporting it... It's too much of a hassle. At the end of the day you must decide what to focus on. Aeva Lite was too successful for its own sake.
Quote
I use the full version on 40konline, so I can't help test the lite version... Although you changelog reminds me that I have to upgrade the 2.x version there.
Well you bought it after all ;)
And Aeva Lite isn't compatible with Aeva Media, whatever the branch. They don't use the same sitelist download URL, for starters.
Quote
BTW: I discovered that the lack of ban affecting the mod, theme and mantis site is PURPOSEFUL (it was not missed or mis-coded) (oh, and there is an ssi_ban() function)
Arantor kindly pointed out that simply calling is_not_banned() is enough to ban someone on a SSI page too. (I didn't test, though... I don't ban people on my website. :sifflote:)

How about turning that perm-ban into at least a post-ban, BTW? So that I can access the beta boards, now that I'm, err... Somehow active again. Although not in a 'posting' capacity.

157
Well...
Here's the complete changelog, based on changelog entries for the 2.x branch.
I removed about 5 or 6 lines altogether (+ Foxy features which represented a lot more, but you already knew that.)
Don't tell me it's *not enough*....... :rolleyes:

* Rewrote YouTube embedding to use their data API. This fixes permanently
  broken lookups after a certain number of videos were embedded.
* If a YouTube video is no longer available, a red exclamation mark
  will now indicate it next to the video's title.
* If an item description is short enough, center it on the page,
  instead of left-aligning it. The limit is hardcoded to 200 characters.
! If an item's filesize was changed after it was uploaded, Aeva Media
  will show a warning. This usually means that the admin attempted to
  re-upload pictures but did it in ASCII mode, rather than Binary.
! Random items in homepage are now shown as a filestack if requested.
! Fixed broken comments area when using code tags inside a comment.
! Fixed broken captions when using the SMG tag on a SSI page, if the caption
  has spaces in it. This is due to admins not preparsing strings as required.
! Fixed broken captions when using the SMG tag, if caption had square brackets.

Version 2.01                                      August 14, 2010
-----------------------------------------------------------------
+ Added support for HTML5 audio on audio files, with fallback if incompatible.
* Rewrote much of the download manager-type presentation.
+ Added "Icons-only" alternative descriptions to item boxes.
! Fixed search engine logic, as well as page index not showing up in search results.
! Fixed string cutter, which, apparently, didn't properly restore entities... Eh?!
* Download count is now used as view count if a document can only be downloaded, not viewed.
! Fixed various error messages that showed up on strict installs of PHP5. Or something.
+ No longer telling you a new version is available, if you're using an unreleased beta.
- Removed support for BBC News embed, as they made it too complicated. Heck.
+ Added support for MP4 files at Ebaumsworld.

Version 2.0                                         July 28, 2010
-----------------------------------------------------------------
! Google Maps embeds were broken when added at the beginning of a message
! Fixed crashes on some servers when embedding pictures through MGalleryItem.php
! Fixed videos not properly embedding when shown through a box or album-type embed
! When showing an item more than once in a page, further occurrences would break.[1]
! Replaced 'x' with the proper math sign for showing picture width/height
! Avoid double ampersands in embeds. They may work but they're unwanted.
! Avoid box shadows on generic icons, in case the website's custom CSS adds any.
! Fixed various Javascript bugs caused by the galurl variable not being defined.
* Don't show item's uploader in album pages, if it was uploaded by the album owner.
 1. This was broken in 1.4 yesterday. Fixed earlier today.

Thanks!

How easy it is for me to provide support now! Yay! Thanks, SMF Team!

Actually, it's

Code: [Select]
static $in_page = 0;
Otherwise the code's purpose is defeated. I forgot to backport that line.
I'll fix the downloadable package in a sec'. :edit: Done.

http://www.simplemachines.org/...c=200401.msg2764286#msg2764286

Disabling Gallery (for admins) wasn't backported. It's actually more code than what you'd think. And I need to keep a few incentives for the 2.x branch, eh :sifflote:

The free version has also been updated to 1.4, with all fixes from the 2.x branch, and a few features from it as well, thrown in for free. Enjoy!

161
Thanks ;)

Nice avatar. Where from?

162
I've released v7.1 on the mod site earlier today and it's been downloaded a few times... Haven't had feedback on it, so it must mean it works. (lol. I know that if it was broken, plenty of people would have come to the official topic to insult me :P)

Actually, on the official topic, someone just posted to thank me for the mod... But he called me "Neo" and the mod "Avea"... Is it that hard to spell my stuff? :P
And he asks for an alternative to PayPal... He should ask the SMF team for that! I didn't program that area...

163
I'm surprised no one seems to give a damn about this beta...
I mean, so many people sent so much time to ask for an update to Aeva Lite...
For this! :rolleyes:

164
Thanks. Too bad it's happening just as I'm going to sleep.
If someone has a problem with this beta, just uninstall it and reinstall v7.0 instead!
Again, it was untested! I just checked the logic of the code, which should be good!

165
Okay... I've had a look at the topic over there and no one posted the link I asked.
http://www.simplemachines.org/...ty/index.php?topic=200401.4660

No one downloaded the beta version. Can someone test it, please...?
It's annoying reading that topic. Since I'm banned, I *can't* provide support over there (and there are a few questions I could easily provide a definitive answer to.) And I'm not sure I *want* to provide support *HERE* for management reasons. Just my luck...
