View Full Version : HTML Code Switched Off

Keith,

Is there a reason why HTML code is now set to 'off' in all the forums?
I have an HTML table in the 'Pub Trivia' forum which now cannot be viewed properly.
Vegy also has one in the 'Off Topic' forum, I believe, as well.

Any chance of having this facility switched back on, if possible please...

Regards

Ada.

Could be that having the html code switched on was how the site was hacked. Personally I would have thought php code was more dangerous.

It was definitely a PHP hack, not an HTML hack. Keith did mention that he was doing an update of files during the past week, so I suspect he's just forgotten to enable the HTML option.

No, it is disabled, after having spoken with vBulletin. Having it on is an extremely high security risk, and I'm plugging all the holes I can. Spent all Monday updating the server scripts, what a pain that is!

Only way to do it at the moment is to screen print it, or link to an external page.

I am working on a 'usergroup' mod to allow trusted users HTML access, but may take a few days, as it never worked the first time, and I'm out all day today.

Script is currently under test. If it's OK by tonight, those who are trusted shall have it switched on for them. Your Forum Title will change.

HTML is now switched on for those I consider require it. If anyone else needs it, pm/email me.
