How to send bug we correct to be included in next release?

[Igor Arkadia]

hello,

when we correct a bug, how to send you the correction to make that it's can be included in next release ? because everytime it's painfull to merge the source!
can you create for vbulletin licenced user (or a selection of vbulletin licenced user) something like a shared developpement environement (like svn or git?)

right now i thing it's one of the best idea to boost the developpement of vbulletin for correcting bug !

exemple

no possibility to edit guest's posts even if you're admin
file \core\vb\api\node.php

you dev forgot that in PHP empty-function returns true on "0" string and guest userID = 0

original code:

if (!is_array($node)
   OR empty($node['nodeid']) OR empty($node['starter'])
   OR empty($node['channelid']) OR empty($node['userid'])

   OR empty($node['contenttypeid'])
  ) 

fixed code:

if (!is_array($node)
   OR empty($node['nodeid']) OR empty($node['starter'])
   OR empty($node['channelid'])
   OR (empty($node['userid']) && ($node['userid'] != 0))
   OR empty($node['contenttypeid'])
  ) 

exemple of other bug


post unapproved by the spam-filter posts still visible by everyone

file \core\vb\library\content\text.php
they are 3 places in the code where you check for approving and 3 places where you set that it's unapproved
but 2 places have incomplete code like this:

$data['approved'] = 0;
$isSpam = true; 

fix to add additional row in these two places:

$data['approved'] = 0;
$data['showapproved'] = 0;
$isSpam = true; 

without this "showapproved" they are still visible for everyone and everyone will see beautyful posts about vagina stimulators


so can we help you in the developpement ?

vBulletin isn't open source nor do we accept pull requests. However if you found a bug and think you might have a fix, you can enter it into the Issue Tracker.
