Might give the dynamic navigation bar a shot this weekend!
MapleBit has been really great for us, we appreciate your development.
Has protection PHP PDO, against SQL injection ?Quote:

Enjoy!
This cms can be adapted to MuOnline ?
Making connection: MSSQL, PDO_ODBC, PDO_DBLIB, PDO SQLServ ?
Thanks
No, you'd be better off using a CMS built for that.Quote:

Adjusting it to work for MU? A matter of modifying the queries and simple front end out put, not so difficult.
This CMS is really simple, which makes it easier to modify than other CMSs, the more simple it is the easier it is to modify it.
From personal experience, transforming this CMS from MS to MU would be less work than adjusting Wordpress or Drupal for MU.
Why would you want to rewrite all the queries? If you're making such drastic changes you would be better off using a real framework to build a CMS. MapleBit is for MapleStory, period. And besides, nobody would use Wordpress or Drupal for a game server website, this isn't 2010 anymore lolQuote:

12/2/2015:
MapleBit v1.11 is now released.
It is strongly recommended that you update ASAP.
v1.12 will be coming very soon to address other vulnerabilities
Why is it still in beta?Quote:

Because saying beta gives me the freedom to potentially break things, and have bugs. Once all the bugs are ironed out, the beta tag will be dropped. I think we may be getting close!Quote:

Are there any known or possible vulnerabilities? I visited the support thread and there aren't new posts there over 6 months so I figured I should ask it here.
I'm going to refactor it on my free time and make my own version of it, although it will still be MapleBit in huge chunks of it, it will be at least different structure-wise.
I suggest you include in your next commit a global message system, MySQL failsafe (to display a maintenance webpage when the connection to database breaks) and error logging like I did for ValkyriaMS a couple months ago, it will really improve it and make it more fit for productions than it is now. The last thing server owners want is their users to see random errors when something breaks (even when it's something as simple as SQL connection problems or any possible technical issue).
Nonetheless, great work with your CMS :)
P.S. I must say, if it wasn't for your MapleBit I wouldn't have had my hands down in PHP at all, so thank you for that ;)
I don't think there are too many people who are actively looking for exploits/vulnerabilities, because I seem to find all of them (none are reported). So I'd say this CMS is reasonably safe to use, but I can never be certain, mostly because it's such a large codebase. Most of the bugs/vulnerabilities arise because the CMS is written in plain PHP. Instead of making your own version of MapleBit, you should learn a real PHP framework. This will test your programming skills far more than adapting someone else's code. Finally, I have already committed to bug fixes and vulnerability fixes only, as MapleBit is in "maintenance" mode. You're more than welcome to develop these features are submit a Pull Request.Quote:

Testing this in the early days was a blast and I was glad to play a (very) small part in helping it grow. In any case, I'm glad you're still going strong and I'll uncork the champagne when that beta tag is ready to make it's exit.
Good stuff, good stuff.
Thanks for helping out in the very beginning!Quote:

Alright (: I hate using style a lot since it mix CSS language with other langugages lol. Also Snopboy suggested the MySQL Failsafe, I would recommend you add this feature. I added this in maplebyte however I havent touched it in over an year, so idk how exactly I did it. It's really nice to have it in case either your mysql server crash from ddos the server will go down along side breaking the website itself so users won't know how to communicate since the site broke. I believe I use PDO exceptions in case the pdo execution broke.Quote:

More user friendly in my opinion.
I started doing that (see the main rankings page), but realize it's a fool's errand to add exceptions for every SQL query. I've already acknowledged that MapleBit is extremely outdated, and I'm not really interested in putting in the time to bring it up to speed with modern standards (my private CMS framework has already surpassed MapleBit. See mapleharbor.net for a demo!)Quote:

Greenelf, Kudos. You have come a LONG way from when I first met you on mapletalk, and I have to say I am very impressed to see you still going with this project

In that case, the failsafe mentioned above (the one I made with MapleBit for ValkyriaMS) is a very simple one that basically checks whether the connection to DB exists and functions properly, if it does it will run the switch block of all the pages (base=main, base=gmcp, etc..) if there is no connection it will run a different code block that includes a static Maintenance page that refreshes every few minutes to check if it's back working properly.
On the other hand, a better way of doing it (like I'm doing in my latest development and most frameworks do it that way) is making a query builder that builds your query based on parameters passed to it and within this query builder, it adds exceptions, that way you only need to add a single exception yet it applies to all queries (provided every query is built using the QueryBuilder).
I might make a QueryBuilder for MapleBit and edit a clean version of it (with no custom modifications) and apply the QueryBuilder for every query there to shorten the amount of work you have though don't take my word for it because I already have my hands full with this development and other projects I'm working on.
