More outdated info

[Destroy666x]

There's definitely more outdated info for 1.8, it just has to be checked.

Examples found just now:

• http://docs.mybb.com/1.8/translations/translations/#finding-translations links to old translations (the doc could be improved with the new 1.8.1 ACP translation features, too)
• http://docs.mybb.com/1.8/development/standards/#php-code-demarcation - we don't use closing tags anymore
• http://docs.mybb.com/1.8/development/cookies/#the-cookie-list misses many cookies (and acploginattempts is incorrectly duplicated, the 2nd should be adminsid)
• http://docs.mybb.com/1.8/development/contribute/#working-with-github-39-s-issue-tracker - Approved label is now Fixed (and there are more labels not described in the doc)
• http://docs.mybb.com/1.8/faq/logout/ - Cannot login and Cookies links are outdated
• http://docs.mybb.com/1.8/administration/security/recovery/#new-security-measures has outdated PIN info too (and the whole section is a duplicate which can be replaced with a simple link: http://docs.mybb.com/1.8/administration/security/recovery/#new-security-measures)
• http://docs.mybb.com/1.8/administration/security/recovery/#get-in-control - Spybot is not really the most recommended tool right now, it could be replaced with KVRT, Hitman Pro or anything similar

Thanks for the additional findings.

@Destroy666x Am I missing any other cookies (or inaccurately describing any)? These are what I've found from a basic search.

ALSO: What language changes happened in 1.8.1? I can't seem to find a PR describing it or anything in the docs/blog.

acploginattempts

Stores the number of ACP login attempts a user has had.

acp_view

Stores the admin's preferred view when inline editing users in the ACP.

adminsid

Stores the current admin's Admin Session ID.

This cookie keeps track of which categories and boxes have been collapsed (as opposed to being expanded by default).

failedlogin

If the user has exceed the maximum login attempts, failedlogin stores the time (UNIX timestamp) of the failure.

Stores a version of the forum password for $fid when a user has entered it correctly, to avoid prompting the user for a password more often than required.

inlinemod_

There are multiple kinds of inline moderating cookies: forum, thread, and user, including:

• inlinemod_forumfid
• inlinemod_threadtid
• inlinemod_useracp - for storing users to inline-edit in the Admin CP

fid is replaced with the forum ID and tid is replaced with the thread ID. The contents are a pipe-delimited and pipe-enclosed list of thread IDs or post IDs which have been checked for inline moderation.

loginattempts

@JoshHarmon mybb/mybb#2131 (comment) + https://github.com/mybb/mybb/blob/feature/misc.php#L950

You're still missing some, e.g. the coppa ones.

@Destroy666x Thanks for the link. I'll get those added.
