DDLCMS Unencrypted

[Brandon_R]

Hello members of this webmaster forum. If you're like me you probably hate running encrypted scripts on your website. One if the main reasons is they could contain unauthorised as shown in this thread - http://www.besthostingforums.com/showthread.php?t=10573

I've come to know a rather popular DDL script called DDL CMS is being used on most websites and people love it mainly of it's features but there's 1 thing, its encrypted. Meaning you can't remove or modify the code for it if you wanted to. I am going to show you how to unencrypt it. I would do it myself but i don't want to contribute to the warez scene as much as i want to contribute to the webmasters here. Here is how.

Tutorial:

Install DDL CMS on a test site.
I suggest editing the files 1 by 1 changing the encrypted code with the non encrypted code.
Look for an instance of:

eval(cryptString('decrypt', $theString));

Replace it with:

 $unencrypted = cryptString('decrypt', $theString);
 echo '<textarea>';
 echo $unencrypted ;
 echo '</textarea>';

Now run that file in your web browser and the unencrypted version will appear in a text area. Copy the code from the textarea and replace it with the code in the file (only the encrypted part such as $thesrting = xxxx).

Example:

$theString = '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

If you manage to unencrypt the script you may post it here. Please dont remove the guys copyright in the link because he obviously spent alot of time on this script and decided to release it for free. Show some gratitude. This will be all.

Great work.

[CyberJ37]

Already knew how to decode their code a long time ago.

But Little Dragon is a very nice person and I respect his work.

[Gavo]

I unencripted it ages ago so I could edit the footer and add extra features, remove the spam email etc using a diferant method.

eg. coloured download cats http://ddl2.in

But thought it would be a bit dumb to post how to do it because people that cant figure out how to decode it will proberly want to remove the linkback, so makes it more likely the next version will be ION and that isnt cheap it unencript.

[jstep2009]

I don't understand why it needs to be encrypted though if its free software.

[immortalxx]

so people dont remove the copyright, people in warez dont give a fuck about anyone but them selfs.

They will remove hte copy right and think they are smart, then when something gets stolen off their site they will make threads here saying, "OMFG THIS GUY STOLE MY DESIGN, UBER HACK HIM! ILL PAY 5$ IF U DO IT"

So its encrypted for that reason. (but not good enough it seems heh)

Anyone caught posting things like this, or using an unencrypted version of DDLCMS, will be blacklisted AND have all his sites blacklisted in all future releases of this script -- including the new release which creates katz-friendly pages pre-approved by Katz staff), you will be reported to Katz for blacklisting and banning, as well as banned from promoting Sharingzone.

[Switchblade187]

Personally I think if you're smart enough to unencrypt it, then keep it to yourself. Don't post it on the web in public areas so everybody can do it. I mean the script itself is free basically and you want to ruin somebodies hardwork?

Also the script is encrypted because of the Sharing Zone deal as well, because I think Sharing Zone funded a lot of the project so they want something in return.

In anycase somebody remove the original method on how to unencrypt, and for those of you that knew long before, then grats to you, just don't ruin the hardwork and keep the backlinks / sharing zone codes.

It'll be interesting to see what people come up with in terms of design if everything is unencoded for you

please remove the code that emails the submitter everytime the submit to a ddlcms site....while it maybe in tos of the download, and is clear to the site owner...it is not clear that the submitter gets an email.

Not bashing you as you do have a nice script but it is rather annoying to get an email everytime from every site that runs ddlcms

Lame, please leave KWWHunction

dont steal from a thief, its immoral
