magic_quotes_gpc=on?

Hi there!  :D

Trying to get started with ElkArte I was getting the following error message after installation:

Quotemagic_quotes_gpc=on was detected: your host is using an unsecure PHP configuration, deprecated and removed in current versions. Please upgrade PHP.

Any solution besides contacting my host (which is All-Inkl.com, not a small one, so maybe this error message will be discussed here more often)?

yep, disable magic_quotes_gpc=on by adding a .htaccess file with these line:
Code: [Select]
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off
Check http://all-inkl.com/wichtig/

I had the same issue, but I enabled PHP 5.4 and worked fine for me. Anyway, installer should check PHP version and show proper information to upgrade PHP version or disable magic_quotes.

This is the way I am able to turn them off as well.
