That did the trick! Both Liaise and alzip. Thanks to everyone. Think I'll keep the bird icons for a little while, lol.

Thanks again!

Dang! Only available in .tgz format. I've tried several extractors (last 2 alfazip and 7zip)but I think my windows machine is corrupting the file.

Know of any with a .zip?

I am looking for a form generator for V2.0.14.

I've tried formulize 2.1 and formulair 3.24 neither of them seem to work properly with 2.0.14.

Has anyone found a good mod for forms? I need 3 simple forms that will send as email.

Thanks!

OK look for this line...
td#mainmenu a {background-color: #E8EFF8; display: block; margin: 0; padding: 4px;} (note the #E8EFF8 is my SS color)
Changing margin from 0 to 5px will give you a 5px space between your links. ( they're not really buttons)
From one newb to the next, I hope this helps.

DON'T FORGET TO MAKE A COPY FIRST!

Steve

Hi all,
I know this has been asked before but I honestly can't find it.
How do I remove the html tags from posts in newbb? When I post a message to my forum it displays like this...

How can I strip the tags when the visitor views the page?

Website URL:Not posted due to a security warning posted here.
XOOPS Version: XOOPS 2.0.14
Theme:default
Template:default
Module Name and Version:newbb 2.2

Side note: I know someone else has asked my question before (or at least I hope I'm not a complete idiot) But if they did I can't find it. What am I doing wrong? Below is a short list of what I searched...
html tags forum
remove html tags
newbb 2.2 html tags
wysiwyg remove tags
HOW DO I GET RID OF THESE ******* tags! (just kidding)

Thanks for any/all help!

Steve

Stuff:
OS: Linux, php: v4.4.0, MySQL v14.7, scripts are ran as CGI executables

Current installed Mods:
Xoops 2.0.14, protector 2.5, XOOPS poll blind, AMS 2.14
Note: I do need to install a couple more mods; a good calendar, and photo album.

Security is absolutely critical for this site and I am willing to pay for a knowlageble person (that has beeen running a XOOPS site for a while without being hacked) to help me work through some known problems and offer advice to make the site as secure as possible.

Known Problem 1: When I run the Protector Mod the security advisory warns...

'register_globals' : on Not secure
'allow_url_fopen' : on Not secure
'session.use_trans_sid' : on Not secure

I have been working on this for a week. This is what I know/tried so far:

I got an internal server error when I tried to create the .htaccess. When I contacted the host there reply was:
Quote:
The host recomended I create a php.ini file. I made 3 attempts at the php.ini from days of googling and placed it in the root of the site. All of them still get the security warnings. Here's that code:


Problems 2 & 3 I haven't even addessed yet:
2)'XOOPS_DB_PREFIX' : XOOPS Not secure

3)I'm really not sure if this is a problem or not but of the links in protector simply pull up my home page.
Contaminations:
http://mysite.com/index.php?xoopsConfig%5Bnocommon%5D=1
Isolated Comments:
http://mysite.com/index.php?cid=%2Cpassword+%2F%2A

I am also interested in any and all other security precautions help or advice.

If interested please PM me and we can discuss arrangements.

Regards,
Steve

You can ake changes to the css in themes/default/style.css.
Make a copy of it first just in case.

Before I pose my question I have to say "Kudos to the developers and community of Xoops" I'm new to it all but I love this program!

My problem...
I am creating a site for a non profit group and I would like a block on the home page for each of the committee members to post thier blurb. The block would contain users blurb, photo, stats, contact links etc. The problem is that many of them can barely retrieve thier email so html or php is definately out.

Is there a way to pre-format a block with tables, users photo, and a block footer containing constants so that when a users logged in they would <u>only</u> need to type thier blurb and not even have the ability to modify the formatting of the block?

Thanks in advance for any/all help,

Steve
