Hello,

I have some mysterious problems with RC4.
I don't have these problems on this support-forum - and I don't know if it's a bug or not Sad

Sad

You can try it on my forum (it's not in public use at the moment): http://www.freund24.de/forum (it's in german - but I think you know where to klick Wink

Wink

)

I wanted to upload an avatar to my account. I uploaded it - and in the preview I am able to see it. But if I leave my profile (using the button "update") - I get back to the forum and the avatar is gone.

There are other related problems with the profile-editor (and even with the admins-menu, escpecially the template-editor):
If I do a change and save it - sometimes I am dropped back to the forum and the changes are gone. Next time I do the same changes they are saved. And if I saved a change successfully - and do some other changes I am allways dropped back to the forum and the changes are discarded.

In this support-forum I uploaded an avatar successfully - and cannot redo my problem.

(and something else: The template-system is very powerfull but hard to understand - I hope you will write a documentation for it.)

Greets,

Jens

P.S.: Sorry for my bad english, I hope you understood everything.

Greetings from Germany,

Jens

Upgrade to RC5 all of the unusual problems should go away. In RC4 the security checks are too strict and may cause problems.

Hello,

I updated to RC5 - but the problems are still there:

I am not able to save my user-profile. I do some changes - an push "save" - then it seems that the changes have been saved.

But if I switch to an other menu - and then switch back to my profile-settings - all changes are reset to the previous values Sad

Sad

You can try it at: http://www.freund24.de/forum

(If I succeeded to change the new menubuttons - here a few translations you may need:
Anmelden = Login
Abmelden = Logout
Registrieren = register
�bersicht = Home
Eigenes Profil = Profile)

===============> I tried it a few seconds ago on this forum - its the same problem!

Thank you for your support !

Greets,
Jens

What browser are you using? I certainly do not experience no such problems and I've tried 4 different browsers.

I confirm the issue (Mozilla 1.5, Linux):

It's partially solved. I mean, I can go away for a couple of hours or even close the browser and I remain logged in by the time I return back to the page, however if I disconnect and reconnect and get a different IP assigned I'm logged off and need to login again. I guess this was the behaviour meant to be for the IP feature. Unfortunately this behaviour persists even if it's explicitly turned off.

You can test it yourself by using a couple of proxy servers. For me it's 100% reproducable.

Aha I see, I had the IP check condition reversed. The attached file fixes the problem.

Thank you.

I will try it tomorrow when I'm back in my office.

But the problems saving my profile still exist. I installed Netscape 7.1 - it's the same problem as with IE6.x . In my forum as well as in your support-forum. I entered for example my birthdate and saved it.
I clicked on "home" - and then I got back to my profile - and my birthdate is still empty.

Greets,
Jens

Is this happening even with the cookies.inc.t I've attached? If you replaced the file, did you rebuild your theme(s) after changing the file?

sorry, but I have problems including the cookies.inc.t - file.

Possibly I did not understand how to include it.
Replacing the cookies.inc with this file will result in no-access to the admins menu.

I will search a topic regarding .inc.t-files - maybe I find something about it.

You need to replace cookies.inc.t found inside src/ with the one attached. Once that is done, rebuild the theme.

I updated it - and I still cannot upgrade my profile (even in your supportforum).

I will check the IP-Problem tomorrow in my office, but the Problem with the profile still resists.

Strange... I have no idea why it is happening. Perphaps more importantly I cannot replicate the problem. Judjing by the error log your IP had not changed (not that it would matter now), the SQ was passed etc... and the error log shows no errors.

SOOO SORRYYYYY !!!!

I found it. It was not a problem of your great forum - but a problem of my stupid eyes.

You have to enter your password to save your profile. In the forums I used before - that was not. There was the password-field only for changing the password.
So I didn't enter the password - and haven't seen the error-message Sad

Sad

I'm really so sorry !

The login-bug is allready there.

I tried it a few minutes ago in the office (where IP-addresses changes) - and it don't work.

I wanted to edit the template - and I had to login about 20 times until I could see the forum.css. Saving the template failed because the forum asked again for login Sad

Sad

It's the same problem with Internet Explorer 6.0 AND Netscape 7.1 !

Sorry I hadn't the time to make any further reports the last days, been too busy with programming. As a summary I can confirm what Jewe is seeing. By the time the IP address has changed I'm getting logged out and need to re-enter my data. Happens on any forum running RC6.

Apart from that RC6 seems to be running fine (at least viewn from the features I'm making use of)

Please send me your GLOBALS.php file so I can see the forum's settings and try to replicate the problem.
