Hello,

I am trying to import the recomended theme called Dark Fusion onto my forums, I successfully uploaded the images for it but when I try to import the .xml document I get this error message posted below. Any ideas?

The following errors were encountered:
A potential security issue was found in the theme. It was not imported. Please contact the Author or MyBB Group for support.
open theme's xml file in a text editor (eg. notepad++) and follow suggestions at below link,
save xml file and try importing it

I edited that now but there's still a security risk :/

anyone?

This is some bullshit, 2 out of the 3 themes I've tried now has that security risk....at least let us choose if we want to take the risk or not, don't just completly block it...
Unfortunately it's quite hard to find out which security risk your theme contains. I've created a topic in MyBB 1.8 suggestions concerning that, no replies till now so I guess it's not going to be changed. http://community.mybb.com/thread-139498.html

Here some other topics, maybe you'll find out:

Also make sure you use the latest theme version:
