So uh, my profile was set to Albanian again today, I actually noticed a few things changing language which is nice, but most of the forum was still in English, which is weird.

I just checked mine and it was also set to Albanian but the forums are still English as well.

Apparently I can't post to the New Features thread anymore - it gives me a 403 Forbidden: You don't have permission to access /index.php on this server.
According to a semi-recent post by MarcAFK it might be due to the appearance of certain words/phrases which are "forbidden", but I didn't write anything out of the ordinary there...

You're talking about : this http://aurora2.pentarch.org/index.php?topic=7958.0
Try posting half of the paragraph, then try the rest in another post, that worked for me.
There was a really odd error a while ago that was preventing posts containing certain words and phrases, this seems suspiciously related.

That was indeed the thread I was referring to. I tried what you suggested, but the second half still gave an error when I tried posting it. Doesn't matter too much though, it wasn't that important.

If the word case is anywhere in the post put it into italics or ensure it doesn't have a space before or after it.
The following triggers the error except when any of the words is in italics, spoilered, in code, etc, each word must have a space before and after it;
" case if then "

case if then fails when I had spaces before and after.

It seems as if there is some way the message text is being parsed as php code.

This is the same as last time, remember how that was caused by "like " ...
Well look at that, I can't post like with a space after it in quotes again.

I posted on the SMF forums about this. We'll see if there is any solution.

It looks like new accounts approval is done periodically.  If possible to give it ago sooner i'd appreciate it very much.

Thanks, Mor.

Approvals are manual, and no one watches to see the exact second when one appears. So it will take time. Especially if it comes in after I've gone to bed.
