United-TI Forum Archives Open at Cemetech

KermMartian

As announced earlier this week, Cemetech has taken over long-standing calculator community forum United-TI. First started in 2003, United-TI was formed out of the merger of several existing programming groups who shared a common goal of producing great projects and teaching new programmers the ropes of calculator development. It is with a heavy heart that we watch them finally close up shop nine years later, but I am happy to report that the valuable United-TI archives have been safely preserved in their full glory here on Cemetech.

The United-TI Forum Archives at Cemetech contain 135,000 of United-TI's posts in thousands of topics, fully-browseable for reference. In the past week, we have put together the necessary code to display the United-TI forums here on Cemetech from their original database, and though work continues on fine-tuning the results, especially BBCode rendering, all forum contents are now available. To ease the transition, you can link your Cemetech and United-TI accounts to show your United-TI username and posting records in your Cemetech profile. In addition, we will be adding a feature that lets you link Cemetech and United-TI topics, so that you can continue discussion from your United-TI topics on the Cemetech forum.

We welcome the United-TI forums to their final resting place, and we especially welcome United-TI's userbase. If you are new to Cemetech, don't forget to introduce yourself, say hello in the SAX chat widget at the left side of the page (or on #cemetech on irc.efnet.net), and share your current projects.

It looks very nice and hopefully the users that were still active come here to showcase their projects.

Also is the integration of their downloads in Cemetech archives still in the plans? It would make them much easier to find.

Also when clicking profile links on UTI they give a 404 not found.

I'm sure you'll get to it, but Seana told me of this problem:

If you click on any of those highlighted links, you get a URL that looks like http://cemetech.net/projects/uti/viewforum.php?p=#.

Catherine/Seana: Repaired; thanks for the report.

DJ_O: Missing profiles are just something I haven't gotten around to yet; if I can finish Chapter 13 of my book before tomorrow night, I'll at least at a placeholder saying that I'm working on it.

Comic: You and me both, and thanks!

I linked my profiles, but the UTI information doesn't appear to be showing up on it.

Additionally, the BBCode tag for color appears to be broken on the UTI forums, possibly because the color= argument is given in quotes.

Do you yet support file attachments on the UTI posts?

Nice catch. Improved the BBCode translation layer to properly handle that particular color code case.

Just curious, would it be possible to get my account linked to my Cemetech one without the automatic form of doing it? I have no way to do it like that, I had a very cryptic password for UTI when I was a member there long ago, and I have no record of it; and, as you can guess, I can't even start to guess what it is.

My UTI profile is: http://www.cemetech.net/projects/uti/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=31642

If that's not okay, then that's also fine by me; it's not like I even did much on UTI anyways to be upset about the linking not going through Razz
