Once you turn the guest read forum permissions back on, the checkboxes will no longer be disabled and you can uncheck them.
My suggestion? Turn on maintenance mode, re-enable reading for guests, and then go through all the forums and remove read permissions for guests
I'll say what I said to you in the email. 
It looks to me like there isn't actually an issue. The disabled checkboxes are disabled because that group has had its ability to read the forum removed, which supersedes any per-forum settings. So checked or not, they can't read the forums.
No, I didn't get it: try sending to smartys@ this domain
Then your story doesn't add up, since what you're describing doesn't seem possible given the code.
I would need admin access, the ability to execute SQL queries, and information about a specific group currently having this issue in order to determine anything more.
I'm looking at a default admin_forums.php
Checkboxes are only disabled for redirect forums (in which case all except for the ability to read box are disabled) and when the group has the ability to read on a global scale disabled (which only disables the ability to check the can/can't read box).
And as I said, no new permissions are made up when you create a new group based on an old group.
So, I assume you've modified these files? 
Nothing is sounding "corrupted" to me. forum_perms only has permissions for a group when the permissions deviate from the defaults for the group. So, if the default permission for a group is to be able to read a forum, forum_perms will only have an entry when the group has specifically been denied access to the forum.
And I just double checked the code for admin_groups.php: basing a group on another group copies the exact same forum_perms entries, it doesn't add any new ones.
If you're at work, it could be a network firewall filtering the referrer.
But yes, in 1.3 we've abandoned the referrer check in favor of CSRF tokens
I would assume some small percentage of people actually end up buying products from these companies. If they didn't, then as you said it wouldn't be worthwhile.
I don't know how "relevant" forum spam is, it has always seen somewhat random to me 
And the search engines take steps to reduce the impact of these spammed links. And punish sites that take advantage of them (spamming your URL would be considered blackhat SEO)
Spammers don't sell the products, they sell a service: namely, the ability to post your link all over the Internet. So they make money by posting the links all over the place regardless of how many people actually buy the stuff. There's an SEO aspect to that: get your link everywhere, your rank on search engines goes up for your search terms.

Spamming is economically viable because advertisers have no operating costs beyond the management of their mailing lists, and it is difficult to hold senders accountable for their mass mailings. Because the barrier to entry is so low, spammers are numerous, and the volume of unsolicited mail has become very high. The costs, such as lost productivity and fraud, are borne by the public and by Internet service providers, which have been forced to add extra capacity to cope with the deluge. Spamming is widely reviled, and has been the subject of legislation in many jurisdictions.

You'll have to ask the people who develop PwnBB, that's an issue with that set of modifications
Yes, nothing there would generate any output.
There are some entries in the database that look a bit odd to me, like users with a group_id of 32000.
Is that any kind of a clue as to what's gone wrong??
Those are normal, unactivated users.
And you shouldn't have to add any code, you should figure out what you edited incorrectly and fix it

Plugins are admin/mod only tools
Hmm, you're right, I misread the documentation for date
Edit the code that builds the dropdown?

I would find that sort of odd, since it would mean they're making their own date/time function
wobo wrote:Now, how am I supposed to translate these expressions into a different language?
Add a line for setlocale in the language file. The English common.php file has an example of how to do it, you just need to replace LC_CTYPE with LC_ALL
That's what I meant without the function update_forum ($forum_id) { ... } stuff (that's already defined in include/functions.php. The way to use a function is exactly what you did in your last line.
