  • "Can see forum"/"Can read forum" permission/authorization issue (Fri., Mar. 11, 2011)
    There is one serious permission/authorization bug in my module Aruba Release Load 6.0 and before:

    I use "Can see forum" permission as "Can read forum" one by mistake; while actually, they have different meaning. The result is: if one registered user has "Can see forum" permission of one restricted forum, but does not have "Can read forum" permission, he/she should be able to read the forum title, but should not read topic title/content within this forum. While through my module, the topic title/content is displayed there. (If you use default phpBB3 user group, which enables/disables "Can see" and "Can read" at the same time, you do not have this issue.)

    I am very sorry for the trouble I made. Please update to Load 6.1 which includes the bug fix.

  • One critical updating for phpBB3 3.0.8 (Fri., Jan. 07, 2011)
    There is one critical updating to make Mobile Online phpBB3 working on phpBB3 version 3.0.8 and later:

    OPEN
    "http://yoursite.com/includes/session.php"

    FIND
    if (isset($_GET['sid']))

    REPLACE WITH
    if (isset($_GET['sid']) && !defined('MOPHPBB3'))

    For phpBB3 version 3.0.7-PL1 or before, the above change is not necessary.

    The reason (for this updating) is when phpBB3 updates its operation/scenario from version 3.0.8, my code is incompatible with it.
