Linustechtips forum and third party scripts/elements

Go to solution Solved by colonel_mortis,

Google Analytics and New Relic are there to give us statistics about how the site is used and to track errors so that the site can be improved and fixed. Blocking them shouldn't affect anything, either positively or negatively, for you.

I'm just curious on what scripts and other elements are needed to load some functionalities on the new forums. I know I need to allow linustechtips.com scripts, but what are those for newrelic.com/js-agent.newrelic.com and what functionalities the serve, and the specifics of google-analytics.com.

 

Any additional information is also welcome.

Thanks. I've just noticed that when I use other user agent, sometimes the multiquote, quote, share and report disappears. IPboard may not be serving some content if it detects the browser can't handle it based on the user agent.

 

Another thing: how do I properly escape strings when posting here? Sometimes I get blocked because I include forward slashes and it's interpreting that I'm doing SQL injections.

No, those buttons will be disappearing because you're not logged in.

Are you being caught frequently? The attack detection should be fairly relaxed. Could you put the contents of the post that's being caught on http://pastebin.com/ and send me a link, so I can look into it? It's really hard to say what specifically will help you without seeing it.

Anything I post with that or similar gets flagged. Example is if I add this string after this: http://pastebin.com/raw/jtuE31nL

I will look into it, but I doubt that there's much that I will be able to do. All I can suggest you do is try adding some spaces in there, or make some of it italics or something.
