Maybe because it's not a bug, that's why you didn't find it.

Ok, maybe it isn't a bug, and maybe it has been explained "many times," but as a Newbie to SMF myself I'd like to know what it is, and after looking through five pages of search results I never did find an explanation.

I understand "old-timers" getting sick of repeating the same answers over again to each new group of users, but just brushing us aside with that's "been xplained many times" doesn't help or answer the question. How about pointing us "Newbies" to the threads where it is explained?

It says unknown action. Why is this not self explanatory? It doesn't know!!!

Example:
index.php?action=ugabugaWEEE

It should say... what? It has no idea what that action means, so it says "Unknown Action".

I could go to your forum right now, and type any action I wanted and you would see that.

What?! SMF doesnt know what action ugabugaWEEE is??

DeadMetal · March 23, 2004, 10:12:48 AM

Even I know what ugabugaWEEE is! The action should be 'User is doing something stupid'

Basically, "unknown action" means that they're doing something you can't access, such as viewing a charter-member-only page, doing something in the admin center, etc.

No, that's "Hidden" - they are different

What, you are trying to access action=ugabugaWEEE ??

Example, someone thinks they are a script kiddie:

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?action=http://217.27.212.16/~machado/atst.gif;test=1

This shows "Unknown Action".

[edit: haha, and he's Brazillian, no less... from Rio de Janeiro or thereabouts...]

perhaps any unknown action should put "Trying to hack the board"
