Try to modify the essentials.php.
BTW, is URL rewriting enabled?
(I'm not sure it is really PunBB issue.)

Having this settings enabled is vulnerable itself :-)

What do you want to fix?
First of all, disable register_globals and magic_quotes_gpc.
Otherwise, contact to PMS developers or install 1.3 + pun_pm smile

You may download zip-archive Trac: from http://punbb.informer.com/trac/browser/ … attachment. Though I think Denis announced it too early. It should firstly be internally tested and even at first sight I see things requiring to be finished yet.

PunBB will remain free but Extensions will cost money down the line.

No plans. And all extensions MUST be under GPL while the core is GPL.

It's the only viable way I see to keep PunBB going, since the staff of PunBB are paid employees, not volunteers.

Not all the staff is paid already. We welcome volunteers, so that they have other benefits from their work and have no any enforcement from PunBB owners. Paid work means deadlines and obligations. Free work means you may do just what you are interested in as long as you like it. (Though I really like my paid PunBB work very much wink) We may give our experience and infrastructure to volunteers so that they can learn and become world-famous web-developers cool

They can charge for access to a well done repository. A repository you can access from your admin screens, that checks for updates, let's you peruse what's out there and installs it for you. If an extension that's made by a member happens to be on the list of available, installable extensions, does that hurt or help said member?

Now if we want to compensate members for their work via some mechanism to track installed extensions, well that would be a win-win for everybody.

Are you ready to pay for this? We'll do this for you smile
Seriously, we have no plans of any kind of direct charging the users. This may be done just to support the extension developers. I personally was thinking of some non-commercial fund accepting donations: all it's money would directly go to extension developers only.

Informer's interest are end-users themselves. Our aim is to offer them other Company's services and to get money from advertising/charging there. We really would like to make all our services better (best with time) and to integrate them into forum extensions (as soon as it is requested by end-users).

Each hotfix is logically similar to the SVN changeset. Though they may differ in the way of fixing the bug, because of extension system limitations.

Hotfix system lets you to delay upgrading the files making the forum logically equal to the latter version.

Nevertheless, it wouldn't be nice from our side to give to new users the old package with known bugs. They will download next version with all the hotfixes included.

Each hotfix is purposed for the concrete forum version. It will not be allowed to install on any other version. Old hotfixes will be automatically removed on forum update.

More questions are welcome cool

Is this modification actual for PunBB 1.3?

Try it. Adapt if necessary (looks like at least layout will be broken).

Accepted for 2.0.

Though we will also consider including this feature into 1.3.1 or 1.3.2.

Thanks.

It is recognisable and familiar. Enough has changed already.

IMO, it is really old-fashioned (remembering the end of 90-s).
I'd like it to be more clear and there to be a unified theme for all PunBB site pages.

I don't think allowing users to choose they're own colors would be a good idea... but I could add an admin option to allow them.

This may be not the color of the username displayed, but some square/round/figure nearby.
Though it is just an idea and is not really important.

Could you explain in details please?

and As a standard feature, rather than extension

That is not in the spirit of PunBB. E.g. I see no use for this features in this forum. And with extension you will always be able to add these features with one click.

PunBB 1.3, all current hotfixes (three) installed, pun_repository 1.2.2 and pun_pm 1.2.2. 0777 set for ./extensions/. Yup?

OS/Apache/PHP versions?

We'll try to reproduce.

But still, it seems that the file isn't even downloaded (because it isn't on the ftp). The archives are to downloaded to the extensions dir, aren't they?

pun_repository removes the archive even on errors.

other extensions installed? can you post results of "ls -la ./extensions/" command here?

See hotfix announcement. Thanks.

Three hotfixes has been released:
- hotfix_13_moderate_xss – XSS vulnerability via topic subjects in moderate.php is fixed. Patch by PHPLizardo.
- hotfix_13_moderate_topics – Fixed bug with incorrect multiple topic moderation.
- hotfix_13_incorrect_topic_status_in_search_results – Incorrect topic status displayed in search results is fixed. Reported by teva.

See also hotfixes at PunBB wiki.

Due to [909] (hotfix_13_moderate_xss) is pretty critical, the PunBB 1.3.1 will be released soon (so that new installations do not have this bug). Though current PunBB 1.3 installations may (should) just easily install the hotfix.

Sorry, I was wrong. This issue actually was fixed in [892] 9 days ago.
New version of pun_repository is available in http://punbb.informer.com/extensions/.

pun_repository contains no calls to Install extensions or admin_extensions_install. This looks like problem with other extension. Try to disable them one by one. Maybe it is pun_admin_extensions_improved (not updated for 1.3 yet).

UTF-8 file (without BOM) containing no multibyte characters looks similar to ASCII. It is OK.
If you find non-ASCII character in the non-UTF-8-encoded file, report us please.

1. Security updates will be released if necessary.
2. No any official plans to drop PunBB 1.2 support.

I think PunBB 1.2 will be supported while it is required by users. My estimation is about year.
PunBB 1.2 support is not too hard as it is very solid and a lot of information has been gathered in these Forums for years. Almost any question may be answered with a link to the topic :-)

There is pun_admin_add_user extension. Though it seems still being not updated for 1.3.
We'll try to finish it to the end of the week and publish in Extension Repository.

Do you use latest version of pun_repository?
