[FIXED][3] Stop all caps when editing a post

[DR€@M W€@V€R]

ok...i was posting on a board which carries vb 2.2.9 n i usually type the title all in caps so that when it comes out 'published' as it were...the first letter of each word is capital...i know most boards (including the board i was posting at) have the feature to post titles all in caps switched off in the admin cp...

anyway...this time i forgot to put the caps lock on n had to go edit my post when i saw it was all lower case n all...edited all in caps n the whole lot came out in caps...i laughed i did !

prolly wont do it here though...

If it's some kind of bug or exploit you shouldn't report it here. For bugs you should report it in the bugs forum and for exploits you should contact Jelsoft via e-mail, as posting the exploit on the board will give script kiddies a chance to exploit boards before a fix can be released.

Does the board you posted on have a lot of hacks installed?

Well it *was* just exploited here, so apparently hacks don't have to do with it.

You post it in troubleshooting and it gets moved there if it's confirmed, sorry if my words were a bit confusing there.

If it's an exploit that could damage a board or be used to cause trouble you are better off e-mailing Jelsoft privatly, don't know the e-mail address you would send it to though.

Confirmed.

In editpost.php, find:


$title=censortext($title);

Immediately AFTER, insert the following:

// Bug fix: Stop shouting setting not checked on post edit: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=62843
// remove all caps subjects
if ($stopshouting and $title==strtoupper($title)) {
$title=ucwords(strtolower($title));
}
// End bug fix: Stop shouting setting not checked on post edit
