Test Forum Request

[• Jay •]

Since the test forum is so tightly restricted, would it be possible to enable HTML, please? Since we can only see our own posts, I don't see the harm it would cause other members.

You can on your test site! ;) Enabling html can be a security concern and why it's disabled by default. Wouldn't be a good idea imo. :)

Staff can see all posts in the test forum, so unfortunately it still leaves the security issues.

How about running the HTML through the new purifier that the 3.4 editor will be using? You could do this for all HTML posts (maybe on an admin switch), regardless of the editor usage of this new filter.

I suspect it would still be possible to use a redirection or suchlike to do nasty things. I can see why its disabled here. :smile:

If there's no board suitable then signing up for a demo may be one option.

We don't customize our forums here, so it's not like we can just start running HTML through HTML purifier until that is done directly in the core software. It's a direction we are slowly moving towards with the many changes made to the editor in 3.4, however.
