Everyone who can access that forum has agreed to it. A list wouldn't be needed as that would be redundant :bunny:

Will it work in the Future with vBulletin 3.6 ?

Strange new error on my website.... Trying to figure out is this mod is related...

Today I reformated my forums so that all my forums are now children under one form and the main reason I did this was to allow me to use this rules hack on all of my forums when I update my Code Of Conduct....

Well, I made the change this morning and I created a new rule for my "Updated Code" and I applied it to my new parent forum and all children (ALL FORUMS ON MY WEBSITE).

Well, after doing this I have got more then a few complaints about the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: preg_replace() in /home/MYSERVER/public_html/includes/class_core.php on line 1871

Following is the code from the includes file:

PHP Code:


			
    function strip_sessionhash(&$string)

    {

        $string = preg_replace('/(s|sessionhash)=[a-z0-9]{32}?&?/', '', $string);

        return $string;

    }

I have not turned off the rule yet as I am trying to see if there is any pattern to who is getting the error. I am also curious if there would be a problem if I have a rule that affects the parent and childern if one of the children has a second rule that also applies to it?

I have tried to reproduce the error on my computers with no luck but I have heard from half a dozen people that have had issues... Several of those are on AOL of all places so who knows...
