I've chased this down as far as I can figure and could use a hand if anyone knows the answer.

I just upgraded my board from 3.0.4 to 3.0.5

Now when I visit memberlist.php - the only profile links that are written correctly are those that use a color (administrator, moderators, etc). All normal users profiles use the old phpbb link. This happens everywhere profile links are used (viewtopic.php, memberlist.php, etc)

Color username link:
domain/username-u2.html
Regular username link:
domain/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=4

It seems like PROFILE_URL is being set incorrectly for non-color usernames in .../includes/functions_content.php

I must be missing something.

Code: Select all

                $_profile_cache['tpl_profile'] = '<a href="{PROFILE_URL}">{USERNAME}</a>';
                $_profile_cache['tpl_profile_colour'] = '<a href="{PROFILE_URL}" style="color: {USERNAME_COLOUR};" class="username-coloured">{USERNAME}</a>';


Code: Select all

        return str_replace(array('{PROFILE_URL}', '{USERNAME_COLOUR}', '{USERNAME}'), array($profile_url, $username_colour, $username), (!$username_colour) ? $_profile_cache['tpl_profile'] : $_profile_cache['tpl_profile_colour']);


This is driving me nuts. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Without looking into the problem you describe, I have to ask: Why not upgrade to the latest version? phpBB 3.0.5 dates back to 2009 (http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=1625005) and there has undoubtedly been many security fixes since then.
