I'm almost embarrassed to call this a 'hack', particularly sincve it's not even mine! :stupid: Actually the code came from FireFly who PM'd me with the answer to this problem I posted on vb.com:

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...threadid=41430

The problem arises if you try to use replacement variables in vB Code. Beginning with 2.2.3, this no longer works. However the fix (thanks to Chen!) is simple. Just remove or comment out this line from admin/functions.php:

PHP Code:
$bbcode=str_replace("{", "{", $bbcode); // stop people posting replacements in their posts 
Of course remving this line will cause the problem of people using replacement variables in posts. However in my case it's a good trade-off.

No, this is caused by v2.2.3.

Those are hardcoded into the script and cannot be altered by vB Code. To change them would require further hacking.

I think that line of code is part of the cross-site scripting issue that was plugged in 2.2.3. While I don't think it will expose you to the entire problem it does present a weakness.
