MyBB Community Forums

The way MyBB handles ACP URLs is just annoying. mod_security is paranoid toward the forward-slashes, and unless an exception for that mod_security rule exists, then it will just trigger an Internal Server Error.

With web hosts like HostGator, this cannot be done without submitting a ticket. If you have a dozen MyBB instances, you'd have to contact HostGator to disable it for each one of them. It's more work for both the user, and the host. I'm pretty sure this also applies to other web hosts, but that's besides the point.

?module=style/templates should be changed to ?module=style|templates instead. It works, and you can actually work out the replacement to a forward-slash in the coding.

We are aware of this issue and it will be addressed in a future release. There are workarounds posted in the support forums.

Thanks. How will it be addressed?

By making it worse?

What do you mean by that?
