A fatal and unrecoverable database error has occured. This may be because the specified user does not have appropriate rights to CREATE TABLES or INSERT data, etc. Further information may be given below. Please contact your hosting provider in the first instance or the support forums of phpBB for further assistance.
Certainly feature wise they've pulled out most of the stops. It's got a *lot* of admin/mod stuff that was sorely missing. Looks quite similar in style to 2.x but as stated above, apparently it'll be replaced for the final version.robmiller said:Is it utter dross like phpBB 2.x or did they get their arses into gear for this one?
Olympus Feature List said:# Modular system allows for easy extensions
Looks like you can add things into these, but like you say doesn't look like you can have other modules at the moment. It does mean you can add functionality to the admin, user and mod control panels fairly easily (and do this without changing existing code I think).tolien said:There's a "module management" option within the ACP, though I don't see anything for uploading modules, and the currently listed modules are the ACP, UCP and Mod CP.
It's a shame because I'm sure there must be an elegant way of dealing with modifications. Hopefully given the number of features in Olympus, *hopefully* there won't be much need for major modifications.tolien said:Given the time it's taken for Olympus to get where it has, I doubt the developers want to tackle very much right now.
