First off, let me tell you that i love this forum.. I installed about 2 weeks ago and certainly , i found some bugs, however minor and using your forum, was able to address all of them. However, I ran across a couple flaws, in two areas of which i havent been able to solve or find info on in your forum...

1. Members when logged in and view the who's online 'more' window they can see everyones ip's. This is one problem i would certainly like to fix immediately.

2. Secondly and lastly, a member who wishes to block his email address from public view, after unchecking the box 'display address in forum' in ones profile update, finds that this service doesnt actually work. Is there a known remedie for this.

Thank you all for addressing my concerns. Its appreciated.
And again, nice work.

Tatt

If i am not mistaken..
there is a Hack in the download section..
to remove the IP address from showing in WHOS ONLINE...

About your 2nd issue..
i have no idea about that..
It works for me though.

Which version are you using? Under XOOPS 2.0.6 only admin can view user IPs.

Then again, which version are we talking about?

Once we had a guy asking for help solving e-xoops problem, hope you have got the right forum.

oops ... sorry.. I read and reread that post and it just escaped me to put the version. My apologeez..

Its 2.0.6 and even though only admin are supposed to be able to see the ip's... all members can. Shall i try downloading another module and updating?

Newbb comes with XOOPS 2.0.6, you don't need to download. It seems that you are using something else. If that is the case, you would have to get help from the person who hacked the module.

In official XOOPS 2.0.6 only admin can view IPs, and there is no such thing as 'display address in forum' under user account (you can double-check Who's Online and Edit Account on this site). Not sure how did you end up with the two issues.

Its the newbb 2,0.6 right from this site... im not using any hacked version from any other developer.. im using two themes for choice, the default phpkaox and a second, 4metal, another from your team. There is nothing in the install out of the ordinary.... all was done to your recommendations.. im just stumped.
