phpBB 2.0.21 released

[B33R]

phpBB Group announces the release of phpBB 2.0.21, the "Bertie's Summer Vacation" edition. This release is a cumulative bug fix update, as well as including a number of minor security fixes. We have altered the visual confirmation system used on servers without zlib enabled to bring it up to the same level as that used elsewhere and made a few small performance improvements.

As with all new releases we urge you to update as soon as possible.

You can of course find this download available on our downloads page
http://www.phpbb.com/downloads.phpThe changelog is as follows:

* Changes to random number generator code to explicitly truncate the length of the string
* Quoting on boards with HTML enabled
* Special characters on boards with HTML enabled
* Redirect to list if cancelling deletion of ranks, smilies or word censors
* Missing error message if an inactive user tried to login (Bug #1598)
* Do not alter post counts when just removing a poll (Bug #1602)
* Correct error in removal of old session keys
* Changed filtering of short search terms
* Improved filtering on language selection (also addresses a number of bug reports related to missing languages)
* Backported more efficient highlighting code from Olympus
* Backported zlib emulation code so that there is only a single confirmation image even if zlib is not available

Why do they release an update EXACTLY when I finish modding a new installation?
This is the second time! :angry:


Back to the drawing board! :spin:

How come they don't have a quick reply feature with the core itself? It's really annoying if you ask me.

[SoftWareRevue]

I don't see it on the list for 3.0 (http://area51.phpbb.com/docs/features.html) either.

At phpBB.com, the a few members of the staff refer to 'Quick Reply' as 'Quick SPAM'. For a while, it was a word censor even.

I hope that helps you understand why.

That is a silly way of looking at it. If a board has members too immature to 'handle' it then let the admins decide to turn it off or add a hack that lets it be turned off by usergroup.

It is a VERY useful feature and i don't like postong on forums without it.
