Release my little forum 2.4.17, maintenance release · My-Little-Forum/mylittleforum

Attention: This version only works with PHP versions up to 7.2.x!

In case of an update: This version can only be an update target for existing installations from version 2.3.5 upwards!

Features

feature: minimal and maximal time between requesting a form and sending the filled form back to the forum-server as separate settings for posting, e-mail and registration forms
feature: a user is from now on able to close her/his own forum account, until now this was only possible for the admin/forum operator
feature: a by the registered users granted acceptance to the terms of use and/or the data privacy statement can be recalled and a newly acceptance of one or both of these agreements can be enforced for the case of changes in the terms of use and/or the data privacy statement
feature: further possible requirements for password quality (enforce a number of lowercase and/or capital letters, ciphers and/or "special" chars), disabled by default

fixed: set the decimal point . as fix char because different decimal separators (i.e. comma in german language) causes errors in floating number operations in PHP
fixed: the checkbox for the Flash-bb-code-setting got reintroduced (will definitely get removed with version 2.5, change was removed by accident in the 2.4.x-branch)
fixed: remove the confirm-password-field from the form for change ones own password, function was removed for the other forms in versions 2.4.16

change: removed the JS-function to create the bb-code [msg] for forum entries, it needed a blacklist of not covered exceptions that was incomplete; entries will from now on handled as [link] or [url] like all other links; existing msg-bb-codes will still get interpreted in the output
change: not selected checkboxes and radio buttons in the settings forms of the admin panel will not grayed out from now on, was a misleading UI-feature because the form fields looked like disabled but was still accessible
