"smiley code" input box needs to have addslashes(); to it, smilies such as :\ hmm when added break it.

Do a clean install. Don't just overwrite files.

I'm receiving this even though i did a clean install (i think).
What's causing this? So i can figure out what i've done wrong..

My forum is accessable both through domain.com and www.domain.com
I wanted to allow access both ways, this i what i did:
(sorry if some similar code has already been posted)

index.php
http://www.domain.com/forum is my setting, but it is accessable at
http://www.domain.com/forum
http://domain.com/forum

if($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == "domain.com") { 
    header("Location: http://www.domain.com/forum");
}

simple stuff, but it works yikes
I just wacked this right below the comment in index.php smile

How did you produce the error?
Are you sure the webserver didn't screw up when serving it up?
I see 'descending' fine

I can still see this in 1.1.5 ?
Perhaps i screwed up the upgrade. smile

I noticed that whilst searching for a post in a forum that is "Admins/moderators only" returns nothing (when a user isn't an admin/mod) the user can still see the forum in the drop down menu of the search section.
Not really important, but still smile

ISPs usually only allow sending of email on their SMTP servers by people on their I.P range. I'd just switch exim over to port 26 or something and tell PunBB to use that port

Ahh thanks, i've just postfixed everything that was written in HTML Escape Chars with "(WRITTEN IN HTML ESCAPE CHARACTERS)" because i'm too lazy to type all that out again :\

OK i'm confused, did my web browser screw up and convert all my carefully typed out HTML Escape characters or did PunBB do that? neutral

Whilst toying with HTML Escape characters in PunBB i found:

1
Having a # in your nickname appears to screw things up.
No immediate problems # nicknames can still be deleted my Admins.
The only problem i am able to find is # nicknames can't create posts

Bad request. The link you followed is incorrect or outdated.

2
Also, it is possible to register a nickname that appears to be exactly the same as one that is already registered using HTML Escape Characters. Whilst the 25 Chars limit prevents anyone from registering 'Administrator' it could create confusion and be used to scam / trick people.
Here's an example:

the username "Jack" is registered, we want to register the same nickname..so we register "Jack"(WRITTEN IN HTML ESCAPE CHARACTERS) whilst to us this looks mostly like garbage our web browser will interpret it as "Jack". However due to the above bug you will be unable to actually POST because that is impossible( i think ) with #'s in your nickname.

3
It is possible to get past the PunBB censorship by using HTML Escape characters. For example if we wanted to say "fack" on a forum where this was forbidden we could simply say "fack"(WRITTEN IN HTML ESCAPE CHARACTERS)


You can find more info about HTML Escape chars here: http://www.theukwebdesigncompany.com/ar … acters.php

You guys prolly already worked out you could solve all these problems by converting HTML Escape chars to normal chars smile

=======

An IRC / EggDrop / PunBB Integration

Version 0.0.1a

NOTES
=====
=====
It would be advisable for users of this script to have some knowledge of Eggdrop Bots.
This is the first version
It's VERY buggy and almost certainly insecure
It's also my first PunBB mod and the first time i've even looked at PunBB's source, so the bits involving PunBB are
very ugly.
It does work though..

REQUIRES
========
========

Modified Version of aEGiS t0xirc [ http://freshmeat.net/releases/166375/ ]  ( included )
Eggdrop IRC Bot [ http://www.eggheads.org ] ( not included )

DESCRIPTION
===========
===========
pundrop is a php script written around t0xirc and punbb that is used to make announcements whenever a new post is made or
a user logs in on a PunBB forum.
