We've read all around the forums how allowing people to post flash on your forums 'could' be a security risk.
However, is there the same risk if you just (as an admin only) add a small bit of flash to one of your templates (say for example; forumhome)? We couldn't find any detail on this. Could someone please explain? :bunny: |

Well, the risk is letting other users post it as it can contain embedded, malicious content. If you are the one calling it up in a template and know it not to be malicious then there is no problem with that.

So this is more an issue if trust than anything? What if you wanted to share something made of flash, is there no way to prove that it's clean and won't hurt the forum?

If you would allow members to use flash, then it would really be a security issue. If you as admin are the only one, then it depends mostly on the admins common sense.

if the flash file is published and protected no, if you have the original .fla file you can send them that so they can verify it is clean and then they would publish the .fla themselves, this is assuming both parties know flash and have Macromedia Flash
