No it wasn't, anyway, I've found the reason I get that rather than "you don't have any buddies" message, a plugin I coded which checked if the request was misc.php do=...etc had an IF{}ELSE{ in it where if the else was met it worked for all misc.php requests.
Now on to the problem, it seems that this:
PHP Code:
eval(print_standard_error('$vbphrase[no_perm_rep_post]'));
Which works and always has is what's causing the error in that plugin, changing it for this:
PHP Code:
standard_error(fetch_error('$vbphrase[no_perm_rep_post]'));
causes a fault???
