strange problem after upgrade to 3.6.3

[waelaase]

i have upgraded yesterday to version 3.6.3
the main language for the forum is arabic
it was working ok with 3.6.2
but since upgrade it usually to find letters not right
it replace letters like replace "م" with "و"
and others
is there any solution and if not how to downgrade to 3.6.2
thx

An upgrade does not normally affect the language, so I don't know why thing changed for you.

There is no "downgrade" option. If you want to revert to 3.6.2 you will need to restore a backup from before the upgrade.

i have the same problem

When one or two people say there's a language problem in vB3.6.3, it's probably them. But when it's 10 people...?

[SolidSnake@GTI]

we have solved the problem ourselves.
this issue becouse of the new fetch_no_shouting_text function in the functions_newpost.php file.

when changing the option "prevent shouting" to '0' in admincp we can solve this issue, or when replacing the new function's code with the old code for 3.6.2.

hope you get it

Here it is the code which must be replaced if you need to leave your admincp options as it is & the the function "prevent shouting" still work.

in the file includes/functions_newpost.php find:

function fetch_no_shouting_text($text)
{
 // stops $text being all UPPER CASE
 global $vbulletin;
 // we only actually touch a-z with vbstrtolower()
 $effective_string = preg_replace('#[^a-z0-9\s]#i', '', $text);
 if ($vbulletin->options['stopshouting'] AND vbstrlen($effective_string) >= $vbulletin->options['stopshouting'] AND $effective_string == strtoupper($effective_string))
 {
  return ucwords(vbstrtolower($text));
 }
 else
 {
  return $text;
 }
} 

& replace it by:

function fetch_no_shouting_text($text)
{
 // stops $text being all UPPER CASE
 global $vbulletin;
 return iif($vbulletin->options['stopshouting'] AND vbstrlen($text) >= $vbulletin->options['stopshouting'] AND $text == strtoupper($text), ucwords(vbstrtolower($text)), $text);
}
