Mingle Forum can still be downloaded through the Wordpress SVN.

I know still missing! OMG I cant believe it. Get that up as soon as possible I love it.

I had to take it down again this last week for more security hardening. I have re-submitted the update already so hopefully the WP plugins guys will get it back up soon.

No there's not, I presume they'll have it back up soon though. It's no different from the previous version except for the handful of security fixes. They're not really issues at all to be honest, the only way an intruder was able to get through the plugin was if they already had administrative access ... which if that was the case the site owner has a much bigger problem on their hands anyways
But to be in compliance with the WordPress.org repository, it had to be corrected. Which is fine, it means that they're finally doing a good job of pulling unsecured plugins off the market.

Hmm, I'll check into that, thanks louiszav.

xplore4life, this is actually an issue with WordPress.org plugin gods --> For some reason they think allowing certain types of code to be added in the admin is a security risk. I feel differently. A hacker would need to have admin access to insert malicious code into the ads areas...well if the hacker has admin access you've got much bigger problems...

But to keep the plugin gods happy, this feature had to be limited. It is fixable thought, open the /mingle-forum/fs-admin/fs-admin.php file and find the following:

				$mingleforum->ads_options = array(	'mf_ad_above_forum_on'			=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_forum_on'],
													'mf_ad_above_forum'				=> wp_kses_post($_POST['mf_ad_above_forum_text']),
													'mf_ad_below_forum_on'			=> $_POST['mf_ad_below_forum_on'],
													'mf_ad_below_forum'				=> wp_kses_post($_POST['mf_ad_below_forum_text']),
													'mf_ad_above_branding_on'		=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_branding_on'],
													'mf_ad_above_branding'			=> wp_kses_post($_POST['mf_ad_above_branding_text']),
													'mf_ad_above_info_center_on'	=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_info_center_on'],
													'mf_ad_above_info_center'		=> wp_kses_post($_POST['mf_ad_above_info_center_text']),
													'mf_ad_above_quick_reply_on'	=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_quick_reply_on'],
													'mf_ad_above_quick_reply'		=> wp_kses_post($_POST['mf_ad_above_quick_reply_text']),
													'mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs_on'	=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs_on'],
													'mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs'		=> wp_kses_post($_POST['mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs_text']),
													'mf_ad_below_first_post_on'		=> $_POST['mf_ad_below_first_post_on'],
													'mf_ad_below_first_post'		=> wp_kses_post($_POST['mf_ad_below_first_post_text']),
													'mf_ad_custom_css'				=> strip_tags($_POST['mf_ad_custom_css'])
													);

And change to:

				$mingleforum->ads_options = array(	'mf_ad_above_forum_on'			=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_forum_on'],
													'mf_ad_above_forum'				=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_forum_text'],
													'mf_ad_below_forum_on'			=> $_POST['mf_ad_below_forum_on'],
													'mf_ad_below_forum'				=> $_POST['mf_ad_below_forum_text'],
													'mf_ad_above_branding_on'		=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_branding_on'],
													'mf_ad_above_branding'			=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_branding_text'],
													'mf_ad_above_info_center_on'	=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_info_center_on'],
													'mf_ad_above_info_center'		=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_info_center_text'],
													'mf_ad_above_quick_reply_on'	=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_quick_reply_on'],
													'mf_ad_above_quick_reply'		=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_quick_reply_text'],
													'mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs_on'	=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs_on'],
													'mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs'		=> $_POST['mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs_text'],
													'mf_ad_below_first_post_on'		=> $_POST['mf_ad_below_first_post_on'],
													'mf_ad_below_first_post'		=> $_POST['mf_ad_below_first_post_text'],
													'mf_ad_custom_css'				=> strip_tags($_POST['mf_ad_custom_css'])
													);

Thanks a lot. It's working.
