Hi thanks for the link but I find these topics centre around sentinel.php and the new file is called nukesetinel.php are they the same file but diff names etc?

Same concept but with nukesentinel.php in it, if you updated your mainfile.php code could have errors, it either is looking for the wrong file, it has $forum_id instead of the FORUM_ADMIN define or you don't have Nuke Patched 2.9 installed.

Your right it was the not having the 2.9 patch I have now installed it and I finally have access to the forum admin yayyyy........one strange glitch though in normal admin panel I have 2 forum square icons???? this is not much of a problem I know as both links do the same thing. would be nice to remove one of them though ????
Many thanks for you help

Delete the forum admin files from admin/case, admin/links and admin/modules

My forum admin page is blank also, i tried the fixes and it does not work, if i take the mainfile.php and at the top it has

if ($forum_admin == 1) {
include("../../../includes/nukesentinel.php");
} elseif ($inside_mod == 1) {
include("../../includes/nukesentinel.php");
} else {
include("includes/nukesentinel.php");
}

if i change all the lines that say includes/nukesentinel.php TO includes/sentinel.php everthing works ok .. any thoughts?
PS this is for the newest sentinel were the files are nukesentinel and not sentinel ... just to clear that up

Thanks

The latest version of NukeSentinel requires Nuke Patched 2.9 and mainfile.php must match my second post in here: (of course with nukesentinel.php instead of sentinel.php)

What if the page is customized alot .. this would take a lot of work to go though the php files and fix them

If for any reason you are not using Patched 2.9 and want to use NukeSentinel 2.2.0 do the following.

Find(within includes/nukesentinel.php):

Code:

// Load required scripts


if (defined('FORUM_ADMIN')) {


  require_once("../../../config.php");


  require_once("../../../db/db.php");


  $lang_dir = "../../../";


} elseif (defined('INSIDE_MOD')) {


  require_once("../../config.php");


  require_once("../../db/db.php");


  $lang_dir = "../../";


} else {


  require_once("config.php");


  require_once("db/db.php");


  $lang_dir = "";


}

ChangeTo:

Code:

// Load required scripts


if ($forum_admin == 1) {


  require_once("../../../config.php");


  require_once("../../../db/db.php");


  $lang_dir = "../../../";


} elseif ($inside_mod == 1) {


  require_once("../../config.php");


  require_once("../../db/db.php");


  $lang_dir = "../../";


} else {


  require_once("config.php");


  require_once("db/db.php");


  $lang_dir = "";


}

Find(in mainfile.php):

Code:

if (defined('FORUM_ADMIN')) {


   include("../../../includes/nukesentinel.php");


} elseif (defined('INSIDE_MOD')) {


   include("../../includes/nukesentinel.php");


} else {


   include("includes/nukesentinel.php");


}

Change To:

Code:

if ($forum_admin == 1) {


   include_once("../../../includes/nukesentinel.php");


} elseif ($inside_mod == 1) {


   include_once("../../includes/nukesentinel.php");


} else {


   include_once("includes/nukesentinel.php");


}

NukeSentinel 2.2.0 takes advatage of Patched 2.9's more secure system for telling if it's being called from forum admin, from inside a module, or from the main system. However with the above you can revert to the Patched 2.8 level and below.

I forgot one other change for Patched 2.8 and below. This one is in admin/modules/nukesentinel.php .

Find:

Code:

if(!defined('ADMIN_FILE')) {


  header("Location: ../../admin.php");


  die();


}

Change To:

Code:

if (!stristr($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], "admin.php")) {


  die ("Access Denied");


}

For those using 7.6 replace admin.php with ".$admin_file.".php.
