This usually happens because when you go to the signature page you come back to the profile and hit submit. The signature is blank in the profile page...so you need to remove the signature from the UPDATE query in member.php

You need to modify your member.php

In 2.0.3 find and remove:

PHP Code:

,signature='".addslashes($signature)."' 


From this line:

PHP Code:

$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET birthday='".addslashes($birthday)."',signature='".addslashes($signature)."',customtitle='".intval($customtitle)."',usertitle='".addslashes($customtext)."',email='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($email))."',parentemail='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($parentemail))."',coppauser='$coppauser',homepage='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($homepage))."',icq='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($icq))."',aim='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($aim))."',yahoo='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($yahoo))."',usergroupid='$bbuserinfo[usergroupid]' $awaysql WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'"); 


I hope this helps. I'm not sure what the line is in 2.2.*

Old line:

PHP Code:

    $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET birthday='".addslashes($birthday)."',signature='".addslashes($signature)."',customtitle='".intval($customtitle)."',usertitle='".addslashes($customtext)."',email='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($email))."',parentemail='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($parentemail))."',coppauser='$coppauser',homepage='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($homepage))."',icq='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($icq))."',aim='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($aim))."',yahoo='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($yahoo))."',usergroupid='$bbuserinfo[usergroupid]' WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'"); 


New line:

PHP Code:

  $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET birthday='".addslashes($birthday)."',customtitle='".intval($customtitle)."',usertitle='".addslashes($customtext)."',email='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($email))."',parentemail='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($parentemail))."',coppauser='$coppauser',homepage='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($homepage))."',icq='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($icq))."',aim='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($aim))."',yahoo='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($yahoo))."',usergroupid='$bbuserinfo[usergroupid]' WHERE userid='$bbuserinfo[userid]'");

I just installed this using the attachment in the first post (sig_editor.zip).

It appears to be working fine for me, so I'm leery of re-doing it with sig_editorupdate.zip.

Can anyone tell me if I need to install the update or if the original zip works fine?

I'm running 2.2.1

I think you can use the original zip. But, you do need to make the code change to keep saving options from overwriting what the editor saves. I switched over to Tubedogg's last zip. I think there are instructions elsewhere in the thread for how to solve the overwriting problem. But, this is one very confusing thread.

Great hack.

For 2.2.1 I had to fix the error/warning message, by adding the following line right under the first line ( <$php ) in sedit.php:

error_reporting(7);
