Hello,

first thank you for the hack!

The hack is working on my board but I have a problem with the thread title and the name of the created pdf file.
If I click on Download Thread as PDF I get a download filename of the file that calls thread-.pdf

How can I fix the problem? I have installed the hack with the install manual.

Thanks
codjo

Hi all !
I wonder if this hack works with 3.5.3? Since I don't have a test board to test !
Thanks !

it does not need file changes, so it should work.

i remember that i tested it and did a few smal changes to it, but i think that was for another reason..

Works fine on my 3.5.3

I really dont know where to look. When i search "open_basedir restriction in effect" i get a lot of threads.

Does anybody know whats going on here?
