You want to disable PHPBB forum logs that are added into a database and are also visible inside AdminCP homepage for example?

On PHPBB 3.3.x

in file


/phpbb/log/log.php

change on line 312


if (!isset($sql_ary['log_type']))

with


$disableLog = true;
if (!isset($sql_ary['log_type']) OR $disableLog)

should work but actually under test.

On old PHPBB 3.0.x


in older PHPBB, there was not a log.php, but in includes/functions.php i have turned


$db->sql_query('INSERT INTO ' . LOG_TABLE . ' ' . $db->sql_build_array('INSERT', $sql_ary));

return $db->sql_nextid();

into


// $db->sql_query('INSERT INTO ' . LOG_TABLE . ' ' . $db->sql_build_array('INSERT', $sql_ary));

// return $db->sql_nextid();

(deactivating the code to insert new log lines by prefixing by "//")
I know it is not ideal.
Also delete existing logs.
