Re: Creating Discussion Forum
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2000
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 35243
interpreted = N
texte = So, in The Pubb, I just have two fields per record, the original thread,and the parent of the current thread you're looking at. The final piece ofinformation I keep is the thread's depth (so, if it's the originalmessage, it's depth is 1....a reply is 2). For my own reasons, I have the main thread's parent equal to itself.Then if I select a message, I know the original thread, so I can do asearch on all messages in *that* thread at a specific level, or do asearch on all messages with the current message as the parent, orcombinations, etc...Hope that structure helps you out. Not that I want to encourage this, butif you just got a demo of The Pubb, you could just rip my entire databasestructure for your own use, and then toss away the demo.-HowardOn Wed, 26 Jul 2000, WebDNA Support wrote:> >Has anyone ever used WebCatalog for the creation of a web based> >discussion forum?> > http://www.thepubb.com/> > -- > Technical Support **********************************> Smith Micro, Internet Solutions Div | eCommerce (WebCatalog)> 16855 West Bernardo Drive, #380 | -------------------------> San Diego, CA 92127 | Software & Site Development> WebCatalog Support: (858) 675-0632 | http://www.smithmicro.com> Fax: (858) 675-0372 **********************************> > -------------------------------------------------------------> This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to> the mailing list
