Nah, read above.
I don’t deserve it, neither case would my post be 2000th.

Maybe the forum bugged out on either side, but who knows? I think it’s a tie…

This happens as posts get deleted here and there, but the system will still count those deleted ones as a database record and the ID that gets assigned reflects this.

I corrected my “2000th” post adding that note; thanks for letting me note that! If I don’t consider deleted records, the victory is mine, but if I do, you deserve it!

And that was a follow-up.

Yup, because I’m not administering PHP myself

Hi Ziverre,
I don’t know, I didn’t check which of the numbers do not exist in the post feed. Missing post numbers or post ID not matching the total is a hint to some post being deleted.

Ah right, I don’t remember if posts have been deleted here though.

For @Admin when he comes
Protected Dir / privacy
I think that by default, your script should put the Options +Indexes code in .htaccess
because otherwise, it makes no sense because it leads to 403 (because the server no longer displays the dir listing by default)
or make a checkbox in the options for protected dir that will be ON by default, unless someone really doesn’t want to have a dir listing, so let them remove the tick manually.

Yeah, some of the posts were moved to an alternate topic to help avoid the Discourse maximum post count. When those posts were moved, their ‘id’ in this topic did not change, so new posts have later ‘ids’.

I disagree. Options +Indexes being disabled by default was a good idea, because it being enabled by default led to many people accidentally exposing sensitive files/folders without being aware that they are doing so. If someone wants to display a directory listing, they should find the option themselves.
The 403 article covers it, so anyone facing an issue should just have a look at the knowledge base:
Besides, I don’t think having a directory listing by default makes sense in website hosting. That behavior is usually met in HTTP versions of FTP servers, where files are being listed so you can easily access and download them. A website shouldn’t need to direct the visitor to a directory listing to display content.

iFastNet developed a simple version of phpinfo that tells the version, website URL, and htdocs path.
My own phpinfo simply bricked without telling what happened, I have display_errors on.

So phpinfo is now disabled entirely, replaced with a simplified one.

Where is that?

Have a PHP file with phpinfo() on it.

Oh, I see…
Very strange, but it’s better than nothing or a broken function, I suppose.
I assume they use phpversion() to fetch the version?

Double checking now, be right back.

They used at least a new function since they disabled the default one; at least they used a functionality from PHP 8 for once!
