I just noticed any URL links to the AZ board aren't working because forum now sits in www.auszookers.com/forum

I'm guessing that will get changed back at some stage and the links will then work fine, I thought i'd mention it just in case.

I have been looking for a way to do this and if anyone else wants to google and help feel free :)

So far I can grab the text from big lists of links like in Good Tech and find replace them and repost them to clean them up, but I havent come up with anything to do the entire forum automagically, I tried making a word censor thing but it wants to change the lot as a link is one string

If anyone finds a solution on google post it up

If people come across links that need to be updated for a good reason quickly, maybe try the report post function and indicate that, I am not sure how the report thing works yet but I am sure it will tell somebody :)

For editing

Code:
replace

If I may quote Stekkie, "you frucked it!" :lol:

Sounds like you need to write a script that will do a find & replace on the entire database.

Yeah I figure its some kind of database thing but that sounds a bit easy to break so it can wait till later I think

yeah you could do a find and replace on just the database table phpbb_posts . I'll add it to the bottom of the list, it might happen in 6 months :lol:

You can do it with str_replace in PHP, but it will need a little extra programming so that it doesn't break links added after the upgrade.
Are you using a MYSQL backend? Might be easier to use an SQL script.

yeah its mysql, there is a script that will fix em as a one time thing, but its a long list and only effects people who search, who will be smart enough to fogire it themselves anyway
