The HG Downloads System on all heavens has been updated to version 0.6.5 this morning. Changes from 0.6.4:

  • BUG – Fixed a possible XSS vulnerability

  • BUG – Ratings from unapproved/deleted reviews are no longer counted in a file’s overall rating in the RHS bar
  • BUG – Updating a file would fail if the summary started with whitespace
  • BUG – Admins are now able to edit reviews for their own files, without turning the review into a comment
  • NEW – User Profile: Added link to view all comments by the user
  • NEW – User Profile: Added ability to view file and review/comment statistics for the user even if a forum account is not found. This is a backward-compatibility fix for sites that was converted from the Blacksmith system

  • NEW – Administration: You can now run rudimentary IP check on users
  • NEW – Administration: Removed the file upload limit for downloads admins
  • CHANGED – Updated the URL encoding scheme for filenames. It was still using the old s/ /+/ trick which doesn?t do it for other special characters that needs to be encoded.
  • CHANGED – mmcache → eaccelerator
  • CHANGED – Search: Improved message when a search doesn’t find any files
  • CHANGED – Administration: Miscellaneous changes and fixes to the error notification emails
  • CHANGED – Administration: Tables in the file and comment admin screens should look better now
  • CHANGED – Files: More error checks during file updates
  • CHANGED – Review guidelines link only shows up if a guide URL is set in the configuration file
