Release notes for Kunena 1.0.9 Security Release
Introduction
The Kunena Team is proud to announce the immediate availability of Kunena 1.0.9. This is a security release and all users are urged to upgrade immediately.
This release addresses a number of issues. A legacy security issue inherited form the Fireboard installer has been fixed as well as pagination issues and RSS.
Highlights of the release include a new, powerful advanced search. Users can now customize their searching in a variety of ways, including authors & titles. A tight collaboration with the Community Builder team is also a great new feature which allows CB users to enjoy stronger integration than ever before.
Additionally, a large number of minor fixes and enhancements have been included in this release. Please see this file to view the full list of changes and improvements:
Security Fixes
We had a security issue in the installer inherited from fireboard, now it's gone for good.
All users of FireBoard and previous Kunena releases are strongly encouraged to upgrade immediately.
What is new?
Besides fixing search, the new advanced search has been added to Kunena, allowing you to decide what forums to search, time posted, author, or search just posts titles.
The integration with Community Builder has given a big leap in tightness, due to Kunena and Community Builder teams working hand in hand.
This part or Release notes is still incomplete. Please take a look on more detailed Changelog below.
What has been fixed?
Search now... searches!
No more errors on profile requests, if a user doesn't has one yet, it's created with default values.
Pagination now works as intended.
RSS was broken on Joomla 1.0.x w/o SEF - it now works on all platform.
External module positions where not good for Joomla 1.0.x, they have been shortened: kunena_profilebox -> kna_pbox, kunena_announcement -> kna_ancmt, kunena_msg_'n' -> kna_msg'n', kunena_bottom -> kna_btm

MySQL Permissions
In order to be able to install and upgrade existing Kunena and FireBoard installations, the MySQL userid used to connect to the database must have the following permissions set:
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES permission must be granted to the MySQL user id
If this is not the case, the automatic installer will display a warning message but will continue and the result will be a successful install.
Downloading Kunena
We leverage JoomlaCode as our single public repository for the public SVN as well as all.
You can find the SVN source code repository here: Kunena SVN
You can find the latest release tarballs here: Kunena Packages
Installing or Upgrading Kunena
Please make sure your target system matches the minimum Technical Requirements or the installer will stop the install or upgrade hard, before creating any tables or applying any changes to existing data structure.
In order to install Kunena please make sure you read our Installation Instructions before attempting any steps. In order to upgrade Kunena from previous versions including FireBoard please make sure you read our Upgrade Instructions.
The Kunena installer has been evolved and tested and handles installs as well as upgrades of existing installs without the need for user intervention or manual sql execution. I keeps a detail version log of all versions that have ever been installed on your site in order to be able to perform incremental upgrades as necessary.
It is NOT required to upgrade to Kunena 1.0.8 prior to running the latest upgrade. The installer has all deltas back to FireBoard 1.0.0 built in, although older version of FireBoard prior to 1.0.4 can have various issues to to code quality and manual upgrade issues.
We would like to underscore the importance of backups before and after the upgrade. Never perform an install or upgrade without a valid backup.
