I got the same error with 'latest threads on forumhome 110.xml':

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /index.php(450) : eval()'d code on line 78

But the lastest threads appear to be fine.

*Edit* It also affects the size of the forum width?

This is on my '/testvb/index.php' forum.

Great hack if we can get rid of the error!

Thanks!

What is the PHP version you are using?

I get this error (except it says line 4 instead of 11):

and the latest threads show up just fine. So I do this to get rid of the error:

And the latest threads disappear.

Hrm - I still do not get this error on my board - I guess they haven't fixed the bug that strips the slashes...

It should not affect the size of the forum width - You might need to alter the template mod to reflect whatever custom forumhome width modifications you have made...

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/bugs3...view&bugid=184

In this, Freddie Bingham suggests editing class_core.php to remove this bug, or disabling [high]magic_quotes_gpc[/high] in php.ini

As this will be a necessary alteration for all hacks and plugins that use regex, I suggest doing one of the two

Same here as well.

[Reverend]

Also, editing class_core.php as suggested by Freddie hasn't fixed the error

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /index.php(450) : eval()'d code on line 4

Ok I have it working on BETA 2 without any errors but...
telewizor OLED
It shows threads that have had a recent reply... when the User doesnt have access to it (such as in an restricted forum admin section)

Are you entirely sure?

I have tested this extensively myself and cannot reproduce this :ermm:
