Thank you so much. I will go with "../forum"
But I do not think we put the "/" at the end as you have mentioned

I found a way to disable magic quotes if your server fails when adding the codes to the .htaccess ... but it takes time, you need to create a php.ini file that only contains this line:

magic_quotes_gpc = Off

And need to store the file in every folder that is contained in the mod... this will disable the magic quotes locally ...

I was very happy to find this plugin but I've had a slight problem with spam. There are somehow users able to register for the wiki without being a member of my vbulletin board. Is there a way to block edits from any user not in vBulletin?

[Daryn]

Has anyone here been able to fully fix the Forum Skin integration? If so, could you possibly go over the template edits you need to do to get it displaying properly again?

running latest mw + vb 4.1.3b1 and get this error on every new page load

Fatal error: Call to undefined method STATUS::newGood() in /home/mydomain/public_html/w/includes/PoolCounter.php on line 60

it goes away if the page is reloaded....

any ideas, anyone?

I am. Was considering using this for my vB/MW bridge, but it doesn't seem to work on the next vB beta, and the next MW will have significant changes with the new Resources Loader...

I was getting this error until I uninstalled the plugin DragonByte Tech: User Status & Moods.
Do you happen to have this plugin installed or another plugin that might be messing your wiki up?

[pete_brady]

please hold...

[pete_brady]

yep - disabling User Status & Moods makes the problem go away

thanks!

Same problem to me. Is there a solution for the upload and saving problems ?
