phpBB Weekly LIVE at Londonvasion!

Postby webmacster87 » 13 Jul 2008, 23:06

Cross-posted from phpBBWeekly.net

We've been talking about wanting to do this for some time; now it's official. For a special episode of phpBB Weekly happening on Sunday, July 20, we will be streaming part of the Londonvasion conference <em>live!</em> In a phpBB Weekly <em>exclusive</em>, we'll be broadcasting the "Open panel discussion, question and answer led by the phpBB Team Members" at 4 PM London time, which is 11:00 AM EDT/15:00 UTC (view local time) via our chatroom on TalkShoe.

Although we will be primarily streaming the session (and so any discussion taking place between ourselves will not be heard by the Londonvasion attendees), our own David Lewis will be listening in and keeping an eye on our live chat room, and so if you have a question that you would like to ask the team members, there's a good chance that David will be able to relay your question over to the team members and you'll be able to have your question answered. Plus, this will be the <strong>only</strong> part of Londonvasion being streamed live in any form, so this will be a great chance for those of you unable to attend Londonvasion to listen in and participate in what could very well be one of its most interesting sessions.

We hope that you'll plan to join us live (or else stream it via the badge on our site) for this exciting special episode of phpBB Weekly, and please share this announcement with anyone else who would be interested!

And of course, be sure to check out Londonvasion Central for lots more complete coverage of Londonvasion.

I'm assuming you didn't mean to put it in the Test forum, :D so topic moved to 'phpBB Weekly Podcast'.

I did put it in the phpBB Weekly forum, but it's a global announcement, so it should be showing up everywhere. I know I put it here because I have a bookmark that goes directly to this forum. *shrug*

it displays like it's in the test forum when it's a global announcement? but it's not actually in the test forum.
Changed back to a global announcement.
Please contact me if you have any news to submit to SCOFF News.

Yeah, I agree that phpBB3's way of doing Global Announcements seems weird. It should redirect you to the originating forum instead of leaving you in the forum you're in.

I think the only real way to solve that would be to assign global topics specific permissions as if it was it?s own forum.
Otherwise you have to search for the first forum with the most wide-open permissions, i.e.: the test forum in this case.
Watch out! I might do a code wheelie!

Are there any questions or comments anyone would like mentioned at either of our live episodes (the pre-Londonvasion one on Saturday or the Londonvasion-live one on Sunday)? Please feel free to spill your guts...
