Recent events has made us aware of a malfunction of the Admin Password Reset page in the Administration Panel of PHPFusion v7.02. Given the right conditions this malfunction could enable a hacker to gain access to those accounts which have had their password reset using the Admin Password Reset page. Affected PHPFusion versions: All PHPFusion v7.02.xx. Details of the malfunction: The malfunction was caused by improper implementation of the PasswordAuth class (/includes/classes/PasswordAuth.class.php) which handles login and admin passwords for all users in PHPFusion. The malfunction resulted in 1 out of 10 reset admins would have an empty login password which enabled the hacker to access the account using a random password of his or hers choosing. Our recommandation: Until PHPFusion v7.02.03 is release we discourage all use of the Admin Password Reset page. It is however not possible to exploit this problem without first using the Admin Password Reset. If you have used this we encourage you to change your passwords manually. More information will continuously be available on the Development Site as well as patched files. In the mean time you can send your questions directly to Hans Kristian Flaatten, Development Team Leader.

This is just to let the community at large know about why the site was down over the weekend. From our preliminary investigations, there appears to be an issue with the admin reset facility. Our Dev team are currently verifying the problem and are working to post more details as soon as possible.

When I added these logs on the main site I expected to catch a lot of "garbage". It turned out my expectations were somehow exceeded. In some days we got many thousands of injection attacks and the access log allowed us to check and blacklist the culprit IPs. Then we've been able to monitor spammer registrations with the error log + some other stuff. These tools are not yet finished, obviously, but they served well so far, even as they are. In conclusion, we should keep both tools and record our site's activity. One of our administrators switched the PHP panel from Public to Administrator. As a result, the two functions only record Administrator activity. This is rather useless. We trust our Admins. This was installed here for productive/security reasons. Will the real slim shady please stand up? I mean the administrator who changed the panel's settings should come up and explain his reason. I just explained the rest. NOTE: This is an Admin-only news item.

Recently several community users websites have been hacked, from what we can tell this is not due to PHPFusion Core exploits but due to infusions/mods that have exploits. Doing a bit of research we have found that the following website has some of them listed. If you use any infusions/mods other than official infusions from staff please make sure you review this list and either disable or update the affected infusions/mods. http://www.milw0rm.com/related.php?program=PHPFusion Cheers

Digitanium has created a new custom bugtracker for us here at PHP Fusion so we dont need to use a 3rd party application and it integrates fairly nicely with the site. We have added it to this site for those who wish to test and provide feedback on errors and issues they see in PHP Fusion. We are all human, no-one person is perfect so im sure some will be found here or there! I would also like to mention that it is not just for bugs but also for feature requests! This way we dont need to have several posts asking for the same feature, you can simply search the database for the feature and see if it has already been asked for. If not then you can submit a request or if it has simply add a comment to the submission! You can access the bugtracker via the URL on the nav bar or by visiting the following URL: http://php-fusion.co.uk/infusions/roadmap/roadmap.php

Along with the release of the helpdesk system we are proud to announce the release of the Mantis Bug Tracking system. This system will allow users to report bugs, ask for feature requests which can be denied, accepted and allocated to certain version numbers like a roadmap. The only major downfall to a system like this is with the vast majority of users that we do have in the community duplicate bug reports are going to happen. What I ask from the community is simple, before posting your bug or feature request please search the system for it before and simply add your notes and information to the currently existing bug report. This will make it much easier for the dev crew to analyze issues. We dont want to be spending our time marking duplicate bug reports and closing them. So without further adue: http://mantis.php-fusion.co.uk/dev/ Update: Apparently its one of the Dev Staff's birthday... Happy Birthday to Wooya!

We are now running phpfusion.com/php-fusion.co.uk on a pure PHPFusion 9 Core and PHP 8. The version mix have been settled as mentioned earlier. Please stay tuned for our new Marketplace and Hosting services to open up again. Our new EU Server supports LiteSpeed, PHP 8 + JIT and OPcache.

To all our National Support Sites, Developers, Co-workers, Users, Supporters and to all our friends, fellow Fusioneers and your families we wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !

We have updated Main with a whole new section we call Partners. Enabled Staff Applications. Updated the FaQ.

Our new AddonDB is displayed as a Directory, The Directory contains over 35 Main Categories and over 300 sub categories.

Due to PHPFusion V7.02 Testing, the Addons Team may not be able to accept any major modification requests until after V7.02 final is released. As core files are subject to change right up till release, you would end up with an addon that may need recoding in a very short time frame. When V7.02 is released most Developers, Coders and Addon Authors will probably have to update a lot of addons so please give everyone time. The last thing we need to worry about is fulfilling lots of major requests from people. If you have any major requests for new Addons please hold off until PHPFusion V7.02 final is released and we will get back into full swing.

If anyone is interested in joining the Addon Approver Team, please let me know by private message only. Read on...

RobiNN have been porting some of the more popular Themes from 7 to 9 for us. We will even be releasing the Atom-X2 ( Current Theme here on Main in this writing moment ) in v9 format. You can find some v9 Themes in , Marketplace Themes v9 Thank you RobiNN, awesome work!

For about seven weeks ago we decided to put our hearts in to the realisation of these major updates to both our systems and the public profile. We wanted these updates to base on The Atom-X Theme and the templating to this. These updates are essential for us in order to display a modern profile of PHPFusion as a Content Management System. There have also been a strong need to show new paths and some more viable Theming methods for dedicated PHPFusion 7 Developers.

Greetings! First of all I have appointed Ugleh, Jikaka and Polarfox as Addon Approvers. We have a queue in this and I hope you guys will be able to shorten it. The Addon Approver Guidelines are available here and may be a good read for anyone wanting to submit an AddOn for approval. Second I have revised Administrative access to this site and made several changes. Not only for security reasons but also in relation to the activity level. Third I have emptied the Junior respective Senior Developers groups. These are currently under revision and as far as I am concerned there is only one person that decides upon who goes there, and that is PMM. I do have one demand though, any member in those groups should have some measure of activity in the development of the next relevant version of PHPFusion. Regardless of it is a major or a minor version. As always, contact me via PM if you have any questions. /Richard

Changes to Moderation/Support team In order to give me some more time with 8, I have done the following changes to the Support Team: MarcusG will be my stand in for some months ahead and as such acting Support Team Leader. Gillette is hereby added to the Team, Welcome! Khaman has been doing Moderation on and off and is hereby officially appointed as such. Falcon continues on the Team, as long as he finds the time for it (being also Leader of 8 Design Team). Polarfox also continues on the Team on similar premises as Falcon (as long as he does not find anything better to do ) . I thank you for volunteering your efforts, and trust you to do a good job. As for me, well, I remain fully responsible for their actions. I pray to be able to resume my responsibilities when this site runs, at least, a Beta of PHPFusion 8!!!

I do not make changes lightly nor post any news here often, but I feel we owe some recognition to a rising star among us. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you: JoiNNN! Not only is he maintaining the winning theme for the Swedish NSS, he is also a polite and patient supporter on this and the Romanian sites. He was good enough to accept my request to make him part of the Official Support Team here. Furthermore the Support Team is under continous revision, the members are now: Homdax, Falcon, JoiNNN and Polarfox. Please PM me suggestions for other names. Remember, be patient when requesting support, there are many members aside above mentioned names than can help you, but we do not have a scheduled watch. As in everything with Free Software, we support what we can, when we can.

About 4 months have passed since we released PHPFusion 9.0 RC 3. Our new Main site based on PHPFusion 9 are progressing very well, however we are not quite ready yet. Please see the News image. The main reason to why we postpone the sharp release is because we want to launch PHPFusion 9 with the new Main site. In order to complete the new Main site based on 9 as we want it, we were lacking a tool. This tool are mentioned in the non-official Development plan for 9.x. We decided to complete this tool for the initial 9 release and utilize it on the new Main site. The tool I am talking about here is a comprehensive site builder tool for your site. It is simply not that easy to build a customized front page with your personal touch today. You will for example still need to master some basic coding. The goal is to eliminate that with this tool. Over 97 Reported issues on Github have been settled since RC 3, as always there have been a ton of adjustments and various additional improvements applied. But as you can see, the amount of issues are declining for each RC and this is the first one we release with a blank page of issues. Yes, you read it right, there are virtually no known issues in this writing moment. We have noticed a larger public on PHPFusion 9 platform and that is a good sign, with the RC 4 we hope to increase the user pool for PHPFusion 9. Download PHPFusion 9 RC 4 here

A little over 2 months have passed since we released PHPFusion 9.0 RC 2. Because of the amount of issues and the fact that we want to prepare a new Main site with 9 as we release it an extra RC was required. Over 167 Reported issues on Github have been settled, just as many adjustments and various additional fixes have been applied. The PHPFusion Community are still very helpful and we are still getting closer to perfection by the day. I would like to give a huge Thank You to everyone involved! Download PHPFusion 9 RC 3 here

Almost a month have passed since we released PHPFusion 9.0 RC 1. Over 90 Reported issues on Github have been settled, just as many adjustments and various additional fixes have been applied. The PHPFusion Community have been very helpful and overwhelmingly positive to the Development of this version. We are getting closer to perfection by the day. I would like to give a huge Thank You to everyone involved! Download PHPFusion 9 RC 2 here

Due to popluar demand, here is a status report. The RC 3 have already had just a little over 80 public issues settled and probably just as many, if not more non public ones simply patched in to the Github. None of the Issues have been serious. The RC 3 version have proved to be very stable with only some minor glitches here and there. A complete list of the publicly patched issues can be found in Fixed issues since RC 3 Thank you for all the reports and testing !

Quite a few Testers, Developers have stepped up and helped us with error reports, fixes, optimizations and so forth. This pleases us a lot, we really appreciate it, thank you again everyone that provides with a helping hand, you will not be forgotten! If you have contributed to 9 and if I have not been mentioned in the readme, please let me know and I will adjust accordingly.

The release of PHPFusion 9 RC is just around the corner. We have stabilized The 9 Core and most of the concerns we have had with a few things is settled. Basic functionality and some more advanced functionality is currently being fine tuned before we do the release. Additionally there are some candy in the pipeline for the new Atom engine. I will let these images speak for us.
