Chris,
I'm experiencing the same problems. I have a BBCode extension installed. Could this be part of it?
Update: The regular Expressions are messed up still in the default.php. I'm not an expert on this, but the ones thatre used currently have ?> in them, which closes the php prematurely.
I changed them to .+? and the links now appear and work-- but any URL names for them (i.e. see my homepage) look like they aren't appearing. I'll invesitigate further.
I've fixed the regex in the latest release (ie. 1.2); it should be working now. I wouldn't recommend changing instances of (?>[^[]+) or (?>[^]]+) to .+?, as it will make the regular expression much more inefficient.
I'm running 1.2 as I said, whats happening with it is that the signatures are coming out as the bbcode, and not as links.
This may be off-topic for this thread, but since you reg express has a ?> in it, how does php gather that is not the end of a tag?
hmm, everything running's fine for me; not sure why it wouldn't be working on your forum... the preg_replace call does look like the following, correct?$Text = preg_replace(
array(
"/\[url=((?>[^\]]+))\]((?>[^[]+))\[\/url\]/ie",
"/\[img\]((?>[^[]+))\[\/img\]/ie"
), array(
'\'<a href="\'.Signatures_ParseUrl(\'\\1\').\'">\\2</a>\'',
'\'<img src="\'.Signatures_ParseUrl(\'\\1\').\'" alt="">\''
), $Text
);and php doesn't interpret the ?> as an ending delimeter because it is in a string literal; it is used here in the regular expressions to prevent backtracking.
I'm going to roll back to an earlier version sometime this weekend. With the modifications I'm using (the .+?) images work, but the url don't appear with their names (i.e. [ url=www.mysite.com]home page[/ url] comes up as www.mysite.com and not home page).
I had this running on an older version of Vanilla, just, but I have just moved servers and installed a new, up-tp-date 1.1.4 version. Signatures didn't work, (the only add-on that stopped working), so i upgraded that as well, now I get this error at the top of each page where someone had a sig: Notice: unserialize() [function.unserialize]: Error at offset 65 of 419 bytes in /home/MYSERVER/public_html/MYSITE/extensions/Signatures/default.php on line 71
It seems that if someone had a sig with anything but a letter or number the error is produced. Also their sigs are wiped out and need to be re entered. If someone had a sig, that now produces an error, their sig is empty and the error only goes away once a new sig is entered.
switching servers probably screwed up the encoding, and caused <samp>unserialize</samp> to balk. it's not really a problem with signatures, per se, it's more to do with php's serialization.
I don't see how switching servers could have caused any problems as they are with the same company/ same configuration but I\ll ask the host company anyway.
Hey guys...I know this is probably an easy fix, but my signatures always appear on the same line as my post. Does anyone know how to put a new line character in there to put them on different lines?
Thanks!

or am i wrong
maybe it is just not working for me
and that is why i reposted

Any thoughts?
