It's enough to make me almost consider making another try at my forum, even if it probably wouldn't get much traffic! So is 2.7 a functioning option? Please help our old bulletin board https://yabbforumsoftware.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1670107791 YaBB Development & Mods/general https://yabbforumsoftware.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1670107791 no-email@yabbforumsoftware.com (pyragony54) Tue, 14 Mar 2023 06:49:39 GMT I can help you, but explanations don't help much. I have to do it myself. To do this, you need your access data (FTP) and admin rights.

I think we installed it in 2005! We've been closed for a couple of years, and as we're about to reopen and I've started using the board again, I realize that it's no longer secure, but I'm at a serious loss as to how to upgrade it and keep our existing/old content. Hoping someone can point me in the right direction and give me some advice on the best course of action. Thanks in advance!

Has it been removed? Jim Langan 2.6.11 Edit Post Bug Resolution https://yabbforumsoftware.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1619965110 YaBB Development & Mods/general https://yabbforumsoftware.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1619965110 Sun, 2 May 2021 14:18:30 GMT Didn't seem to be a clear place for bug reports on old revisions, so I figured I'd just post it here and let you move it if necessary. I updated from 2.5AE to 2.6.11 a while back. In doing so, the ability to edit posts broke - no one, not even mods or admins, can modify a post. While it has made for some amusing incidents, it is a bit of a pain. Well, eventually, one of my members got sick of it, did some debugging, and identified the issue. I'm reporting it here in case it has not been found yet. In cgi-bin/yabb2/Sources/ModifyMessage.pm, around line 766, a closing curly brace was put in the wrong location. This makes it so that if attachments are disabled, edited posts are not saved/posted. Here is the before/after: -- BEFORE -- ***Go to Post to see Code*** -- AFTER --- ***Go to Post to see Code*** As an aside, I noticed that the lines of interest are the only ones with tabs in that file. Go figure it was a dirty tabber who introduced this terrible bug! <img rel=";-)" src="https://yabbforumsoftware.com/yabbfiles/Smilies/tongue.gif" alt="Tongue" title="Tongue" />
