      I didn't do anything, I just went to the forums and saw the error's, I checked the control panel for updates, there were none so am confused to how this happened or how to fix it.

        Re: Bug with forums

        It looks like someone has attempted to add a MOD to your forum and either didn't upload a necessary file or missed an edit. There is no default folder in phpBB called "Sources", so if you're using phpBB, just go in and delete the Sources folder in the public_html/forum directory. Before doing anything, though, download the Sources folder to your pc in case for some reason you need to put it back and go to phpMyadmin and do a database backup.

          I moved the source folder and I still get the following error's, http://dragonsofpern3.com/forums/index.php


          If I could ask someone trust worthy to fix this I'll allow access to my control panel, I really need to get my forums back up as I have a large community following my web site and game. So please if you have a minute to help someone with this, please reply here or my PM, thanks.

                      No what I meant was the line of code on line 51, I can't tell anytihng from just the index.php.

                        with the URL index.php?action=action-in-url. Relatively simple, no?

                          erm ... just need line 51 as that seems to be where the problem is, hard to tell from this, open the page in a php editor and it will give the line number

                              Hi

                              Sorry for the late reply, try commenting it out, just put // before this line, so should look like,

                              //cleanRequest();

                              Be sure to save the page first as it is before making any changes so that if it doesn't work you can always upload the original page etc.

                              Make the change and simply ftp it over the original page. It seems that some people with Mambo forums have had the same problem and simply taking it out works.

                              Regards
