Well, here it is the close of my second year with Trap 17. Seems like only last month I was
lured over here from Asta Host by JLHaslip. Actually it was on 5th January 2006 and 2 days later I
got my hosting approved. I have really enjoyed my time on the forum, all the support I have
received from so many members, greeting new members as they join and introduce themselves, helping
out whenever I can (which is seldom in the tech department, since I am not extremely computer or
graphics literate, but I do my best), giving opinions on subjects I may have a little mo...

Well I just installed a mod, and it said you must have an Apache Server or something. SO does trap
use an Apache Server and if not is there anyway we can since it says its free...

Well almost two days ago I stumbled across Flickr and decided that since I've seen it before and
I had the time, I would join. Y'know what? It's great! Note Flickr relies on a yahoo
account! if you already have a yahoo email, thats great! all you'll have to do is choose
a username and your'e away.. if not it's still pretty easy (contrary to popular opinion

me remember the Xisto effort on a Myspace & Orkut that never really took off. We...

Just was looking at the phpinfo for the Hosted Accounts and do we really have PHP Version 5.1.6?
When did that start? Now we can make use of all the nice stuff in php5. OOPS and the Mysql stuff
just keeps getting better here. Keep it coming Opaque....

I searched for any alerts and notices but didn't find any.. Last night i posted several posts,
and some of them were interesting too. I lost all of them today including my credits. Not that i
care about credits, i have plenty it's just this post in string theory i care about.. I
don't have it saved on my computer!? Oh well, i see that forum is changed a bit now, so
probably there has been some loses while changing.. It would be good if someone explained this
though.....

I was wondering if i could somehow transfer some of my credits from my Trap 17 account to my Asta
host account because i have gained many credits here at Trap 17 and i am having a hard time gaining
that many credits there.I just want to transfer maybe a months worth of credits (30 credits) And
thats it. I have been very busy lately and it's hard to post on both forums and post enough to
gain a good amoun of credits. If it's not even possible that's ok. Thanks anyways. P.S.
Both forum accounts are BooZker....

I am very worry about disk space and bandwidth , I hosted a Simple Machine Forum at Trap17 and I

I was wondering if anybody knew any good ways to display the Google Adsense ads in a IPB forum
between the posts. Like the way Trap17 has it. Is there a skin file under Topic_View that I add
it to or is it a modification to some code. So I'm new ad adding ads to the forums I own,
because like all other webmasters your are crunched on cash sometime in your life. Anyways I
don't want the add to appear in a post after a post. Some sites do that and its annoying. Any
ideas or help is appreciated, I did not know to post this in the Adsense forum or this forum so ...

this is just a really quick question i was redaing some psots and it got me thinking, trap 17 has to
be hosted somewhere and if its in mans shed then thats fine, but really how much space does trap 17
take up with hosting account and without hosting accounts, then how much abdnwidth a month do they
use? and then how big is the my sql data base with all of our hsoting credits and accounts on, wow
thats gotta be a lot, so i was wondering if admin would tell me or not, and maybe you could setup a
page at the home page to tell use some if this information, thanks dudes and ...

I have just requested the domain change and they have granted it to me. The problem is that my it
paginates web I have it in a subdominio type index.xxxx.trap17.com instead xxxx.trap17.com. How I
make for translate the web that I have created in the subdominio to the new domain that I will add?
Thanks very much...

ok, I was thinking, what if we had a signature system that linked to a page (like
'signature.php') on our trap17 website or something. This way, we can include javascript,
because I have a sig rotator on mine: Http://www.psychdesigns.net/signature.php I think that
this would be great, or mabie just let us have php in our signatures, so we can go CODE
<?php include "www.website.com/signature.php" ?> so we can update a signature
for every forum site in a few lines of code. Tell me what you think......

This is probably going to end up in the SPAM　box buttt... IT's BEEN　a year TODAY
that I've been a member at trap and it's been great and most of all FUN! The hosting
throughout the year has been cool and this free hosting company has been built to last /smile.gif'
border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /> So if some of you 'think' that
it's all a scam and doesn't last forever..pftt whatever YOU　can speak to my HAND.
Thanks for the great hosting trap and I hope to stay hosted here for as long as fo...

trap17 offers, it is great! but i still don't understand all the archives in there, what are

Hi all, Just a minor problem, The image I chose to use in my forum signature doesn't display
when I go back to view my posts. It just shows as a blank white box w/ red X in it. I'm 95%
certain I used the correct syntax to code it into the signature. Uploaded a image to the root
directory of my hosted website at trap17. Does where the image is hosted make a difference?? Any
tips??/ suggestions?? RGPHNX...

Hi, I bought two domain names. I pointed one to my trap17 account root. It works perfecttly. My
doubts come while pointing the other one. I would like to point the other one to a subfolder of my
trap17 domain. For example: www.domain2.com --> should point to -->
mizako.trap17.com/domain2/ Just now i just went to CPanel/Parke Domains/ and i add there the
domain2. Now i have boths domain names pointing to the my trap17 root. Can anyone tell me how to do
to point the second one to a subfolder? Thanks in advanced....

okay since you guys have changed the hosting packages I was just thinking do you need 30 posts or 30
days of hosting credits to get package 2?...

I joined Trap 17 a couple of months ago, I was then warned for 'spamming' - which I had done
inadvertently - since I am not an experienced 'spammer' I had no idea what it meant.
Immediately upon being told not to do it - I stopped. I had posted just a few messages anyhow and
freely admitted what I had done. Then a few days ago - I went to log on - and was told I
couldn't log on because I had 'spammed' again. Which I had NOT! I was given no
explanation - and was told I was banned for 5 ( or 7 ) days - but they left my website up ?? So - i...
