I trying to comply with the message I got from InVision Community, Dangerous PHP Functions Enabled . My issue is I don't know what is dangerous so I have a list here. Hopefully you can help me with this problem. I've been dealing with. for the last couple weeks. I'm so close after a couple years of getting this site up and running. I even paid somebody to get up and running and this is where he left me.

I'm using a beta version 5.0 . I want to update this to newly released 5.0. I tried but it would not let me update. The following is a list I got from SiteGround, my provider. I would be using your service, but I knew is going to take me some time to develop the site and I didn't want to pay a large sum while I was putting things together. Once together I will switch.

I did try to get in touch with sales but no luck.

So all said, I need to know what PHP to disable.

The notification in the ACP will tell you which ones you have enabled and should probably disable. Please note that these are just recommendations to better secure your server. They will not actually halt you from upgrading or doing anything with our software.

If you can't upgrade the software, it is another issue entirely.

Maybe I posted in the wrong place? Should I place it here instead?

Richard Arch - Is this One name or several that are run together? Either way, I don't see it on the list that is displayed in my original posted topic.

Either way, It almost seems like I'm getting close.

Do you use cPanel, DirectAdmin or something else?

You can basically edit your php.ini file, but it also depends on the type of hosting you have. If you do manage to disable the extensions, yet still continue to see the message. Clear your site's cache via the support tool and sign out. When you sign back in, it should be gone.

Personally, I found I had to disable the extensions on my server and in the php.ini file.

Another client suggested to me that I should sign out, and when I did, the message disappeared and has not once come back. Yet in the past, before this, I just changed the php.ini and it did briefly go away, but later returned a few months later. I'm not sure exactly, but I found a topic discussing it, and I followed the advice, which was to disable the extensions, exclude them in the php.ini, clear the cache, and sign out and back in.

I hope you manage to disable them.

Those are different functions. If you are unsure from looking at that, you really need to contact your hosting company to perform this on your behalf.

I can see a ticket in sales there, but that was only submitted a couple of hours after this topic. Im not seeing any others. We will of course reply to that for you as soon as we can :)
