I think after you've installed it, its your responsibility to keep up with updates - especially since updating is so easy now, and version 2 also had an update checker. There's a reason why!

The site in the video demonstration over at Avert Labs Blog is still infected and is/was definitely a very old version of phpBB2 -- I looked at a Google cached page. I don't know of a way to check what version exactly, but the copyright notification at the bottom gives an indication: Powered by phpB...

My ACP Inactive Users MOD contains a function that compares two dates and outputs the difference in relative terms, ie. "2 days, 5 hours." Is that what you're looking to accomplish? And I think the time setting that you're talking about is defined in includes/session.php in the function fo...

Check that BBCodes are allowed in your settings. Go to ACP main page, under the Board Configuration heading, go to Post Settings . The third option is "Allow BBCode;" make sure it is set to yes. And also check your UCP settings to allow BBCode. UCP > Board preferences > Edit Posting defaul...

Instead of doing it yourself, you can just use a pre-built style Take a look at the Styles DB.

Make sure he isn't a founder.

How did you fix it?

From the error it seems to be indicating that space has run out for all uploads. Are you sure there's still space left on your server?

You can customise your phpBB with themes or modification. :) As for the upgrade to 3.0, I suggest you take a look at the features of both and see what suits you better. I would say upgrade, but then perhaps 2.0 could be better suited to your needs. At any rate, please do check to see that the phpBB2...

As far as I know BBCode is not permitted in profile fields like interests, occupation, etc. It is allowed in the signature though.

BTW, the thread title came off as a bit rude.

Hi mastertech, Could you check the uploaded files specifically for /install/ index.php ? If it isn't there, upload that one again; but if it already is up there, then this looks like a problem with your host. I say this because the error message you received makes me think PHP files aren't supported...

There is also a MOD that does what you are asking, but it hasn't been validated or released at phpBB.com yet. You can find a BETA at http://phpbbacademy.com/.

Hm, not as far as I know. I haven't tried it out on the server I had this problem on for some time...

Has mod_auth been updated in any sense? Maybe there has been a fix?

It looks like a PHP mail() timeout error. How many members are you emailing to? This would happen if there are too many people to mail to, so the server times out. Also see: http://www.phpbb.com/bugs/phpbb3/ticket.php?ticket_id=13049 To get around this limit, you could try to send the mails one-by-o...

It could be because of a word censor...? Do you have that set up?

Do word censors effect usernames??
