Site being attacked- help!

[Brewhaus]

The forum is not really even marketed, so I cannot answer the 'why'.

[Brewhaus]

I talked to Lynne at vBulletin, who was extremely helpful. She even took a look at our setup to see if anything seemed out of place, and all was good. The plug ins are valid vBulletin plug ins, so we...

It may have been something to do with the upgrade, as the only plugins appear to be related to vBulletin (Forum Runner, Panjo, PostRelease, Skimlinks). All are disabled, but is it safe to just remove...

[Brewhaus]

While the board is off in the ACP disable all the plugins
There are no plugins required, correct? All plugins had been deleted previously, but there are some active again. I assume that it is safe...

Our vBulletin board appears to be under attack. We have actually had to shut it off because IP banning is not stopping the false registrations from happening, and neither has changing the human verification...

Support seems to have stalled out on me (they insisted that the issue had to do with setting the temp upload folder in PHP, and despite trying to set that it did not take... they stopped communicating...

[Brewhaus]

That was it! I guess it explains why I set up forwarding on our server- so that we did not have to add or delete from each forum, but could add or delete it in one spot.

[Brewhaus]

No, this was a setting on the Admin side for sending e-mails of all posts made.

[Brewhaus]

We have some users that want to receive a copy of all posts (more like a forum than a bulletin board). Maybe it was the forum software that we used before vBulletin that offered that setting. Boy, that...

[Brewhaus]

In the past I could swear that I found a field to enter the e-mail address(es) that all posts should be sent to. After spending a sizeable amount of time looking for this again I decided to give up and...

[Brewhaus]

Will do...

Okay, I have upgraded to 4.2.0 PL2 and am still hitting a bit of a snag. It seems that we can upload a GIF file of larger dimensions and file size, but vBulletin reduces the file to 20KB (it does, however,...

[Brewhaus]

I realize that it will not change previously uploaded files, but new uploads are still being held to the old maximum values for some reason. I guess that it is time to upgrade.

[Brewhaus]

That is where I made the changes. I also increased the maximum dimensions. However, when you try to upload a file larger than 20K it still truncates it to 20K.

[Brewhaus]

Thank you for the quick response!

Alright, admittedly I am on an ancient version of vBulletin (3.7.0), but things run smoothly so I see no reason to rock the boat. However, even after changing the individual attachment limits to 250,000...

I thought that it was likely to add advertisements, so it should not hurt to just leave it in place in case we ever want to use that.

It appeared that there was a duplication of the "right" variable with the line after the code for the logo on the left, so I removed that- I assume that should not cause any issues.

We would just like to add the image (and link) to the right side of the header- opposite the 'logo' that links back to the homepage.
