Legacy Problem with large forums protected by Suhosin module

[Jeniczek]

Hi,

there is a problem with large forums protected by Suhosin module in combination with "Editing Button: Forum" (DBTech - Post Thanks -> Forum Manager). The thing is, that on sites with LOT of forums, subforums, categories, ... etc., when you make changes, not all of the "checkboxes" remains "ticked", because the request is SO HUGE that it will exceed the (default) Suhosin limits, so not whole request will be completed.

Solution (Suhosin side):
Increase following limits in Suhosin config:

suhosin.request.max_value_length
suhosin.request.max_vars
suhosin.request.max_array_index_length

Solution (DBTech side):
It will be fine to have a bit more userfriendly way how to set things right. Right now it's like "a milion clicks needed" for a large forum. So maybe split the setting by forum category, also add way to "Inherit" settings from parrent forums, .. etc ... will be better

Changed to feature request as your solution details how we can improve our interface

I'm having the same issue, I can't save the settings in the Forum Manager if to many boxes are ticked.
It worked fine in the lite version.

That's because the Lite version has less checkboxes.

Try adding this to .htaccess:

php_flag suhosin.cookie.encrypt Off
php_value suhosin.request.max_vars 2048
php_value suhosin.get.max_vars 2048
php_value suhosin.post.max_vars 2048

If this doesn't work, you need to change these settings in your Suhosin config

Yeah we tried that last night, I had the server OP change the settings in the PHP.ini with no luck

Update. I just deleted the htaccess and now its working perfectly. It must have been conflicting with the changes in the php.ini
