I forgot to un-comment

$config['Security']['mfa_force_cp'] = false;

when I was refreshing my config.php file after the last upgrade and as a consequence my Moderator...

All resolved. Many thanks Wayne Luke :-)

searchindex.php ran through with no errors and completed after running utf8tablefix.phar (was using INNODB tables)

Hi, I'm running PHP 7.4. I checked & the 2 modules you mentioned are showing as enabled through a php -m

[woodmj]

I noticed pages of

SELECT * FROM words where 'word' in ('

errors towards the end of running searchindex.php after upgrading to the latest version of VB5. Has anyone else seen these? I did try to do it...

[woodmj]

I had a look and all the Channels are set to 'Default'


In my header template this is the only mention of 'noindex' which sits at the top of the file :

Looking in Coverage I see 24k valid pages but.... ...

sudo apt-get install php7.4-curl

Just wanted to throw my hat into the ring on this one.

I checked my webserver firewall rules and they look ok? I haven't changed anything recently apart from applying the VB5 upgrades as...

[woodmj]

I just noticed that registrations to my site were failing due to Admin having disabled them but when I check in the ACP I have not disabled them. Bit confused?


vBulletin 5.6.1 Patch...

[woodmj]

Just wondered if there was a way to get the profanity filter in the ACP to also work on the Recent Posts Widget? Currently it only seems to work in the posts themselves.

[woodmj]

Fixed :-) Many thanks!

I've come across something strange recently.
