Default Re: Random Smiley Search Broken?

When I was working on the last :ff: scripts I did (mirror? consternation? I forget), I downloaded some, :cough:, "test" versions of vBulletin that allowed me to test stuff out on my own computer. The vBulletin 4.0.3 download was about 70 MB after unzipping and the 3.7.3 version was only about 12MB.

I think I installed them on a laptop running linux, but I suppose they would run on a WAMP box just as well as a LAMP one as they are only .php files and mysql tables.

PM me if you're interested in more details.

so I think the 4.x code would be sufficiently different to be .. useless. But a similar approach with that code level could be useful.

I believe that the not marking things unread is a page cache problem as well. When I return to the forum index I am being served up the same forum index I saw before instead of a refreshed version. I am thinking something on the :ff: server was changed recently and caused both issues.

Sorry I'll set up a test board this weekend; the new boss is in town for a couple days so I don't have much free time.

Meanwhile, there are two things we could do.


1. Update the smilie search code following cep's suggestion to randomise the url



2. Change the caching policy via the .htaccess file

I am sometimes seeing differing 'last replied' in the index and in a thread, even when I force a reload with ctrl-f5. Something is caching and it's not me...

So should we try disabling all caching (using that directive what I done mentioned up there) and see if things get better? as opposed to worse? or neither?
