Most efficient way to fetch a specific option from the DB?

Sun, 19 Jan 2014 00:39:07 +0000

Basically, I'm wonder what would be the sibling function to:

function qa_set_option($name, $value, $todatabase = true) {...}

Something like this:

function qa_get_option($name, $fromdatabase = true) {...}

So basically I need to go dodge the cache, get to the database, fetch the value and then update the cache. How should I proceed in order to only fetch the given option and not the whole table?

How to reindex a large database?

Tue, 26 Nov 2013 06:13:10 +0000

Hi,

I asked this question already but did not get an answer.

I importet my old database into Q2A with nearly 2 Mio. entries. Now it takes more than two days to reindex the database and the browser or the page get an error after this time without finishing the reindex.

I tried all suggested solutions (emptying some tables in the database...) but even with all these solutions I did not get one run to finish the complete reindex.

Is there any way to renindex a big database or is Q2A only for small forums?

Thanks for your help

Fabian
