Fix for broken links in Forum Admin

Posted: Wed Feb 05, 2003 6:36 am

Link problem exists for the Categoriy links as well as the Forum links under Forum administration, Management. When you click on a Forum or Category to view it.

Do the following in your
modules/Forums/admin/admin_forums.php

change

Code:

'U_VIEWCAT' => append_sid($phpbb_root_path."index.$phpEx?" . POST_CAT_URL . "=$cat_id"))

to

Code:

'U_VIEWCAT' => ("../../../modules.php?name=Forums&file=index&c=$cat_id"))

also change

Code:

'U_VIEWFORUM' => append_sid("viewforum&" . POST_FORUM_URL . "=$forum_id"),

to

Code:

'U_VIEWFORUM' => ("../../../modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewforum&f=$forum_id"),

if you are nto comfortable changing the code yourself, here is a replacement file with the fix already applied.
Use it to replace your
modules/Forums/admin/admin_forums.php
[FIX HERE]

Does this fix need updating, by any chance, if a user has applied the Google Tap hack?

Reason being, is that I have applied the Gogle hack, and this fix, but still get this sort of URL in my Forum Administration when, for example, trying to click on one of my categories or forums:

http://www.scienceblog.com/65b7/modules/Forums/admin/modules.php?name=Forums&file=./../viewforum&f=1&sid=8a6ede00e70c824b09f3d51a4d0c1dd9

And this is a non-existent page. Just at first blush, something about that ./../ looks odd.

My fix above fixes your problem if applied correctly.

I don't know if it afects the Google thingy. Confused

Does the Google thing have a file included called admin_forums.php?
Or maybe the Google thing affects it in some way?
