I think that's by design - if a regular member edits a post with HTML (if they dont' have the ability to HTML) you want to "break it" otherwise they could insert dangerous stuff in the post. So it reverts to UBB[/]

Yep, that's basically what I was pointing out, if the users have the right to post HTML in newpost/newreply in the first place, then editing said post should not revert back to UBB only. Their 'rights' should remain constant.

And since he says that he has not yet hacked any code, I can only assume that it's a bug.

It's weird that modifypost is updating the B_Convert field like that in 6.5 though, it doesn't do that by default in 6.3, which imo is the way it should be with virgin scripts.

*shrug*

[] But allowing HTML in your forum to general users is a very bad and dangerous idea. Youv'e got a high potential of getting hacked. [/]

I was going to mention something about this. Imo anyone who enables HTML for regular users without hacking in extra security measures (that's what I did) is playing Russian Roulette. It's not something I would personally do anyway.

PS - Josh why do you of all people only have 4 stars?!? My god, what's going on here?

*rates JoshPet 5 stars pronto*
