I am no longer developing this code. But, if there are enough people willing to contribute their time and energy to help with this source, I would be willing to get active again.
This is a torrent tracker written in PHP. Also included is a realtime chat(AJAX Chat), Private Messaging System, Message Boards(Forums), Arcade, Lottery and Casino.
The primary goal of this project is to give the site owner a means to create a community around sharing torrents, with the hopes of encouraging and engaging the userbase to participate in the discussion.

I am using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, PHP 7.4, Percona MySQL 8.0, nginx 1.18.0 for developing this code. You may need to adjust the instructions below to fit you current server setup.
- Update to PHP 7.4 - default settings
- Error free with MySQL 8.0 strict mode - default settings - Mostly Done
- Remove merged bootstrap
- Update jquery
- Update all javascript files to remove jquery dependency
- Merge, minify and gzip css/js files to reduce size and requests(not as important if http2 is enabled)
- Replace manual concat/gzip of css/js file with uglifyjs
- Optimize all images for web
- Remove js from head and relocate to body - Mostly done
- Remove Simple Captcha
- Fully responsive and mobile ready
- Drag and Drop Image Upload
- Allow use of unix sockets for all local server connections
- Proper validation of user input - In progress
- Replace mysql with PDO/FluentPDO - In progress
This is a fork of U-232 V4.
PHP 7.3+ is required.
MySQL 5.6 is required. MySQL 8.0 recommended.
Composer is required. Version ^2.0.8.
NPM/NPX is required and comes with nodejs. Version ^6.14.10.
This code explicitly sets the php default timezone to 'UTC'. Further down, you will set MySQL default timezone to the same. It is very important that PHP and MySQL be set to the same time, else your site will display incorrect times to your users.
A simple bash script to install everything required to host Pu-239 is here and can be used to jump start the installation process.
A simple php script to upload to Pu-239 is here.
A quick site intro video is available here. (Outdated)

- Coder : Has access to the site, very similar to that of a Sysop
- Forum Mod : Can moderate forum posts
- Torrent Mod : Can moderate torrents and their descriptions
- Internal : Required to post to the Cooker
- Uploader : Required to upload to the site
After updating composer, npm, changing anything inside the config or app folder, changing anything inside the staffpanel, you must delete the php-di cache. If you have set PRODUCTION = true.
sudo rm -rf /dev/shm/php-di
Make any edits or changes to the files in templates and scripts folder, then to concatenate, minify and gzip the files for use, run:
php bin/uglify.php
Fanart.tv API provides posters, backgrounds and banners. A Project API Key is required.
TMDb API allows upcoming movies and posters. An API Key is required.
Google API allows up to 1000 api hits instead of 100 per day. An API Key is optional.
IMDb API allow movies and tv lookup. No API Key necessary.
TVMaze allows tv lookup and posters. No API Key necessary.
API keys are set in the Staff Panel -> Site Settings.
Production creates minified javascript and css files when running uglify.php.
After changing the setting 'PRODUCTION', you will need to run php bin/uglify.php to concatenate, minify and gzip the files for use.
config/define.php define('PRODUCTION', false);
This also creates a cache for php-di, significantly improving its performance.
memory, couchbase, apcu, memcached, redis or file. 'memory' is set as the default and is set in the config.php file. memory cache is only for testing and is not a real cache as it expires at the end of the request. Trivia will not run while using the memory cache. In order to use any cache engine besides 'file' and 'memory', you must first install the appropriate driver and php extensions.
An image proxy for hot linked images is built in and enabled by default, disable/enable in Staff Panel -> Site Settings. This allows for browser image caching and keeps from breaking https security with http images.
$site_config['site']['image_proxy'] = true;
- clear_cache.php : clears the entire cache that is currently in use
- import_tables.php : can import any table listed as an argument or imports trivia and tvmaze by default
- install.php : installs/re-installs the site
- jobby.php : runs all of the sites cleanup scripts through cron
- optimize_resize_images.php : creates an optimized version and multiple sizes of each image in the images table, this is done automatically during cleanup
- remove_altered_images.php : removes every image that is not in the images table
- remove_torrents.php : removes all torrents, truncates tables and removes all traces of all torrents
- set_perms.php : ensures all files have correct the user:owner and permissions set, also removes the DI_CACHE_DIR directory
- uglify.php : generates the needed js/css files seen in public/js and public/css, also removes the DI_CACHE_DIR directory
- update_db.php : updates the database to the current schema
- usersfix.php : adds users to userblocks and usersachiev tables, usually not needed
- validate_images.php : verifies the images in public/images/proxy/ are valid images, removes those that may be invalid
- localize.sh : create and update locale files
If sudo is necessary to run uglify.php without errors, then you have the permissions set incorrectly. See the wiki for a brief example.
With the exception of the peers table, this project does not store the IP address of any user in the database. In addition, the users IP is not stored by default, the site administrator must manually change this setting to store IP addresses using memcached.
In time, the peers table will also be replaced with memcached, so that no IP will stored in the database.
This project uses gettext to manage text strings. Unfortunately, it is not yet 100%. There are still quite a few hard coded strings left here and there.
