php5 - Private Message (PM) Store phpBB3

Hi,

I have downloaded the phpBB full package from http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ph....0.zip?download and am intrigued to find out how the forum stores private messages sent by users, as if you view the "privmsgs" table contained in the database, it doesn't contain the message entered?

Why is this, where is the message stored?

Please do not post application specific or non-code specific questions in the php-coding forum. Please use General Chat or PHP Applications.



Anyway, phpBB uses a normalized database structure and will often use a seperate table just to store the text content of a post or private message. Then using a sort of "link" table to connect everything together, try looking in a similar named table. Or it may be stored in the same table as the post text is.

Your best bet at a good answer would be the phpbb forums, which can be accessed here: http://www.phpbb.com/community/ as you can speak directly to the developers.

Ah OK Cheers. I'll try there!
