I am using PHP 8.1 with the latest UNA 14 release, and when I upload new pages cover for the site, it does not upload. I am wondering if this is a PHP configuration problem or what? I checked the storage folder permissions, and everything seems fine.
I have an absolutely clean/fresh install of self-hosted UNA 14.0.0 that is unable to connect properly to the apps storefront. It will display links pointing into the storefront, link so:
However, clicking on any of the links returns this:
This behavior is consistent across all of the links under the 'apps' area in the studio console. I've already done fairly extensive troubleshooting. It's not an issue in my hosting environment, it is clearly a configuration issue in the UNA CMS install. Any suggestions anyone can offer on next steps is very much appreciated.
I am looking for which part of the UNA code is force setting content filter boxes to be checked after it checks the profiles date of birth field.
I am seeking to modify this so that the boxes are not by default checked, but instead are offered to the user to be checked if the requirements are met for the rating to be offered to the user.
As it stands right now, if someone that is age 21 or over, the following is displayed.
✅G
✅PG
✅PG-13
✅R
✅X
What I desire, by default, when someone who creates a profile that is 21 or over, have the following by default.
✅G
🔲PG
🔲PG-13
🔲R
🔲X
Reason: Not everyone wishes to see such content above their comfort zone right out of the gate, and with age verification laws going into effect, we must start disabling and hiding R and X until a user has paid to have these unlocked, such as purchasing Premium so that a transactional history data is logged to verify age to meet law requirements.
I've already discovered how to hide the options R and X for users, but this doesn't stop the UNA script from automatically checking the boxes upon profile creation....
I recently went looking for an email form box script to use on a website and found one that had a "honey pot bot trap". I download the php files, and was reading up on it, I realized that these php files can be used in Login and Join forms, because it spoofs bots into seeing a form field to fill out that people cannot see. When it fills the form field, the php script then prevents the form from being executed. Someone might extend the concept to include a means to log the IP who fails to pass the test.
This could be one way to deal with bots, of which combined with a Captcha test, you have two levels of bot prevention. Anyways, I found this at the PHP Tutorial site.
UNA Hosting Question
If I obtain the $49 a month hosting plan, does this plan allow me to access my installation files on the server? I am asking because I have added webpages to UNA in the past on other servers, to add pages to the network for user information and things like pages with embedded videos and streams.
I read up on making a PWA app for a website and using such things as the manifest.json file etc, but there was no information on where to install it in a website. Such as what folder, and what the name of the folder should be, as well as how to tell the server you have a PWA installed? Of which I was wondering if this is listed in the htaccess file?
Comments are welcome, and if you have a link to a resource that details this specifically, then post that. I find this interesting, and have some ideas for use, and have begun a PWA using html and css with json, which basically amounts to a custom landing page for app users, but where to locate this at in my UNA installation is what I want to learn, along with how to get it working on the site.
I was looking at the various security features of my host, which consist of the standard SSL, DNSSEC, and a firewall called ModSecurity. Then I thought about adding a firewall inside of UNA and remembered Ninja Firewall used in Wordpress. Well to make a long story short, they do have a version that can be added to any PHP site, where you install it in a recommended directory in your site (UNA installation) using its installation page to install it just like UNA has, and then add a script to your htaccess file to get it going.
There is a free Pro edition, that is powerful enough for anyone, along with other security features on your hosting platform.
NinTechNet is what you are looking for on the web. I cannot post the link with my current membership level.
I think this has been asked before, I am wanting to stop the html filter or cleaner in UNA from removing the iframe tag from my input into the Post editor. I seem to recall that there is file in UNA where I can allow html tags. I welcome all comments.
I wanted another means to communicate with my Moderators, where people can post hashtags to a post in comments such as hashtags for spam ,scam, troll, etc. I decided that the Channels feature would be another means I could use to moderate the platform, and so, I created hashtags on my Admin profile to open channels for these subjects. And I limited the access or view of the channels to Admin and Moderators.
Anyway, I now have both the Report and Channels feature to help in moderating the site. Some might like to keep Channels as they are, while some might try this idea out.
