HTML Purifier Phorum Mod - Filter your HTML the Standards-Compliant Way!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This Phorum mod enables HTML posting on Phorum. Under normal circumstances,
|
||
|
|
this would cause a huge security risk, but because we are running
|
||
|
|
HTML through HTML Purifier, output is guaranteed to be XSS free and
|
||
|
|
standards-compliant.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This mod requires HTML input, and previous markup languages need to be
|
||
|
|
converted accordingly. Thus, it is vital that you create a 'migrate.php'
|
||
|
|
file that works with your installation. If you're using the built-in
|
||
|
|
BBCode formatting, simply move migrate.bbcode.php to that place; for
|
||
|
|
other markup languages, consult said file for instructions on how
|
||
|
|
to adapt it to your needs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-- NOTE -------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
You can also run this module in parallel with another
|
||
|
|
formatting module; this module attempts to place itself
|
||
|
|
at the end of the filtering chain. However, if any
|
||
|
|
previous modules produce insecure HTML (for instance,
|
||
|
|
a JavaScript email obfuscator) they will get cleaned.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This module will not work if 'migrate.php' is not created, and an improperly
|
||
|
|
made migration file may *CORRUPT* Phorum, so please take your time to
|
||
|
|
do this correctly. It should go without saying to *BACKUP YOUR DATABASE*
|
||
|
|
before attempting anything here. If no migration is necessary, you can
|
||
|
|
simply create a blank migrate.php file. HTML Purifier is smart and will
|
||
|
|
not re-migrate already processed messages. However, the original code
|
||
|
|
is irretrievably lost (we may change this in the future.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This module will not automatically migrate user signatures, because this
|
||
|
|
process may take a long time. After installing the HTML Purifier module and
|
||
|
|
then configuring 'migrate.php', navigate to Settings and click 'Migrate
|
||
|
|
Signatures' to migrate all user signatures to HTML.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All of HTML Purifier's usual functions are configurable via the mod settings
|
||
|
|
page. If you require custom configuration, create config.php file in
|
||
|
|
the mod directory that edits a $config variable. Be sure, also, to
|
||
|
|
set $PHORUM['mod_htmlpurifier']['wysiwyg'] to TRUE if you are using a
|
||
|
|
WYSIWYG editor (you can do this through a common hook or the web
|
||
|
|
configuration form).
