I upgraded from forum 2.7.4 to forum 2.8.0 on geeklog.fr. Everything went well. However I find that:

1. Part of the text is outsite the tooltip (on index.php?forum=X pages).

2. The link color for New topic or Post Reply might be blank because depending to site links color, they can be unreadable on the blue background.

To solve this in public_html/forum/forum/layout/forum.css I changed
Text Formatted Code
a.postbutton {
  color: #fff !important;
  text-decoration: none !important;
}


3. On 3 columns sites with fixe width the breadcrumb, new topic link and post reply link are too tight. We might introduce her a new config option for blocks display (left, right, both)

Yeah I had a few issues with themes that use a dark color in the title columns. I added a few bug reports about them.

The tooltip problem is easily fixed though (I added a bug report on this as well). Look in the forum config.php file and change

Text Formatted Code
$CONF_FORUM['linkinfo_width'] = 50;

I upgraded to 1.8.1rc1 and Forum 2.8.0 and I have problem with Private forums and Geeklog search engine. Users are able to get search results without proper rights. Any ideas?

Confirmed. Good catch.

I will post a unofficial fix here when I have one.

Ok in the forum functions.inc do a search for the function plugin_dopluginsearch_forum and replace the first part with:

Text Formatted Code

function plugin_dopluginsearch_forum($query, $datestart, $dateend, $topic, $type, $author, $keyType, $page, $perpage)
{
    global $LANG_GF01, $_TABLES, $_GROUPS;

    // Make sure the query is SQL safe
    $query = trim(addslashes($query));

    $sql = "SELECT ft.id, ft.date, ft.subject AS title, ft.comment AS description, ft.views AS hits, ft.uid, "
         . "CONCAT('/forum/viewtopic.php?showtopic=', ft.id) AS url "
         . "FROM {$_TABLES['forum_topic']} ft, {$_TABLES['forum_forums']} ff "
         . "WHERE ft.forum = ff.forum_id AND (ff.grp_id IN ('" . implode( "','", $_GROUPS ) . "')) AND ft.date <> 1 ";
 


Let me know if you have any problems.
