The cookie problem thats fixed in 2.2.7
 

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...?postid=340530

the announcement of 2.2.7 lists this fix:

With the current number of hacks I don't really wanna upgrade and lose it all (or have to redo em), but I'd really like to get this issue fixed since a number of users reported it. I don't know if its possible, but could the specifics be revealed so I can do it manually? It doesn't sounds like a complicated fix by the description..

thanks

It IS a complicated fix. If you look closely, there the db schema is changed, and most files that use sessionhash has been changed to accomodate the change. It's not a matter of changing a couple of files - it looks like changing most files. Correct me if I'm wrong though...this is what I can infer from the post in vb.com.

Off the top of my head

two new functions in /admin/functions.php

and all the refrences to cookies in

index.php member2.php, poll.php, search.php, showthread.php, threadrate.php, usercp.php, admin/functions.php

it would take about 30mins to do.

Anywhere we can get the way to do it? :)

so there's no details?

:(

Yep, I'd appreciate a manual changes list too as I've a heavily hacked board that I can't afford to have down for any length of time.

Indeed...

My board is not quite as heavily used as some others, but I dont want to upgrade to vB 2.2.7, as I would lose all my hacks:(

Satan

Bump...

Same here :(

Guys

Manual would be the only way...but it shouldn't be too hard. Head on over to vbulletin.com and download 227, then head on over to prestosoft.com and download ExamDiff. The standard version is free.

Then just load up each file as indicated in the update announcement on vbulletin and your current file to see the differences....

BTW - for templates you will probably need Firefly's template exporter.....

Simple! :cheeky:
