Disallow HTML code in Thread Titles v1.01

This code simply disallows the characters < and > from being used in the thread titles, this is also is checked when editing the post. It's fairly simple but puts to and end members signing up and posting redirect links. I don't know whether you'd class this as a hack or bug fix, but I hope this helps other members who are frustrated with this issue. 2 file edits 1 new phrase Should be fairly straightforward to install. **ALWAYS BACK UP FILES BEFORE YOU EDIT THEM!!** v1.00 Original release v1.01 Slight code update Download Now Only licensed members can download files, Click Here for more information.

Good idea, steadicamop.
edit: there seems to be a problem in: /includes/functions_newpost.php find: error: Warning: preg_match(): Delimiter must not be alphanumeric or backslash in /includes/functions_newpost.php on line 379

Both those files have hooks, can these changes not be done via plugins ?

I'll look into remaking it as a plugin - I've never dealt with creating plugins before so it's something I will have to my research on.

Okay, just asking.
I think far more people are likely to make use of it if no file edits are involved.

so even if you dont allow html they can still post html in thread titles? if thats the case it seems strange that vbulletin wouldnt patch that. as you could just do this all day long with a google search finding vbulletin sites. would suck to have to use a plugin, hack, php file edit what ever to stop it and secure your site.

3.5.4 Compatible?
Hello,
I was wondering if this security issue applies to 3.5.4 and will this fix work with 3.5.4? Or how to I get the same result making code changes with 3.5.4. Advice would be appreciated. Thank You, Nuguru

Isn't this a vBulletin bug you are fixing?

you need to add the phrase in the text file, its the last step in the instructions:
In the AdminCP -> Language & Phrases -> Phrase Manager -> Add New Phrase Phrase Type : Front-End Error Messages Product : VBulletin Varname : nohtml Text : Sorry, you are not allowed to post HTML in Thread titles, please go back and change it. HTH
