What's new in this version:

CLIENT
  • Logs of chat and private messages
    Users can toggle on and off, and the logs are stored in xml format.
  • Expanded View options
    When a file is previewed, 1.9 will open it with the appropriate application.
  • A button to open the download folder
    A very convenient time-saver that allows users to dispense with shortcuts and aliases.
  • Important bug fixes
    Including the 27 character Mac file bug, the illegal character Windows file bug and the invisible client bug.
  • Context specific help
    Dedicated buttons on each window link to online help, making it easier to get information on specific tasks, and vastly reducing the size of the Client download file.
  • Security Upgrades Include: Disabling of most "F12 secret" functions
    A proliferation of undocumented easter eggs and special functions created potential security problems for community administrators. Custom icon capability is preserved.
SERVER
  • A new Message board Service
    Flat News in addition to existing threaded News.
  • Ban by IP-range
    A very useful feature for community administrators. This feature will enable much more effective enforcement of server rules.
  • Important bug fixes and server exploit fixes
    Hotline Server 1.9 fixes the invisible user bug, which allowed a user to log in invisibly to the administrator, therefore preventing the admin to remove the user from the server. As well, 1.9 fixes a dangerous exploit that allowed users to crash the server by uploading a folder of a specific type.
