Despite this issue is very minor and hard to achieve the proper effect, we recommend everybody using this add-on make necessary update of the core addon_members2.php file. In this file, there are two line fixes of the received variable output: $morder=(isset($_GET['morder'])?$_GET['morder']:'username'); becomes $morder=(isset($_GET['morder']... http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5207_0.html Mon, 06 Oct 2008 04:54:38 -0500 http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5205_0.html As it was recently reported, and security issue provided by 'Rino', miniBB can be exploited to execute intrusion JavaScript code. I personally think despite their theory, these issues are very vague and hard to imitate in practice. Anyway carrying about secure software, we weren't brave to ignore them and did the following updates: 1) In the Human Authorization (Captcha) add-on, there is a minor update in addon_authorize.php file. Please note we didn't change the version of... http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5205_0.html Thu, 02 Oct 2008 09:58:10 -0500 http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5190_0.html Mass-Delete Topics add-on allows to delete many topics quickly just checking the boxes, which should appear for admin/moderators under Topics listings. That way the moderation of your board may be completed in a much faster term. Deleting many topics at once will work like you would remove topics separately with all related add-ons stuff affected, for example, with all attached files if you have File Attachments add-on installed; or a Poll, if you have Polls add-on installed and there is some... http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5190_0.html Wed, 03 Sep 2008 04:54:51 -0500 http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5179_0.html As you might know recently miniBB has been moved from minibb.net to minibb.com and that resulted in completely losing traffic from Google for quite few months. This was specially disappointing for me, because it seems we did everything correctly regarding SEO terms, setting up the proper 301 redirection via Apache's .htaccess like it's recommended in all SEO guides (and which is correct), and for example, MSN or Yahoo report now absolutely correct results if you type miniBB in a search... http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5179_0.html Fri, 15 Aug 2008 13:58:32 -0500 http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5176_0.html As it was described recently, member list add-on is vulnerable to execute some XSS code. I am not sure what this gives to the hacker, anyway I recommend everybody using this add-on to update it a bit. Solution is provided in the Bugs thread; or just replace by our fresh copy from Downloads. Photo album add-on was recently updated to the ver. 1.4 with the sponsorship of Latvian Girls Forums authors. Now it is possible to apply a Watermark to all images uploaded to the Profile (it is loaded from ... http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5176_0.html Wed, 13 Aug 2008 06:24:46 -0500 http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5143_0.html With the sponsorship of our great supporters, SlashGear team, now it was possible to work on the updated miniBB integration with the latest series WordPress releases (2.5 and above). I was negatively surprised by this WordPress change, because now they provide the authorization which can not emulated externally (I honestly didn't understand why it's needed for such simple thing as a blog). I was forced just to include huge WordPress libraries sequence to let it work with miniBB. I su... http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5143_0.html Fri, 20 Jun 2008 04:39:04 -0500 http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5118_0.html Today we have started the moving of miniBB official website from the domain www.minibb.net to the premium domain www.minibb.com.

As you may notice, within the past years all miniBB security problems may appear only if you have such configuration of PHP. Again, please re-check your server settings regarding this configuration and change it to register_globals = Off, or ask your provider to do that. Nowadays all major scripts support working without globals, it is a question not only ... http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5110_0.html Tue, 22 Apr 2008 05:31:40 -0500 http://www.minibb.com/forums/9_5091_0.html 2 months were passed since new miniBB version has been released, and it was our time to take a huge work on the official add-ons. Now we are proud to announce that all add-ons, both free and paid, have been completely updated to meet new miniBB quality standard, and they are now fully compliant with the newest miniBB release (incl. layout schema).
