OK -- here's the status right now.

The classifieds site (http://www.moparstyle.net/classifiedads/) is using all of the new files in the update as of a couple days ago.

Many members are able to move between the forums (http://www.moparstyle.net/forums/index.php?referrerid=2), the classifieds (http://www.moparstyle.net/classifiedads/), and the photo albums (http://www.moparstyle.net/photoalbum/) without problems (they're still logged in). All members appear to be able to move between the forums and the photo albums and stay logged in.

However, there are also many members that are logged in at the forums and photo albums -- but are not logged in when they get to the classifieds. When they attempt to log in -- it appears that the log in is successful with the greeting -- but then they're presented the index screen without being logged in. These people have a variety of browsers (Netscape, IE6, Firefox,...) and have them set to default. They've dumped their cookies. Although this "appears" to be random on the older members -- it also appears to be the case for ALL new members. If a member has two logins (not a policy we wanted -- but have found a few members to have more than one) -- when they login with their other login -- they will have hosed themselves from the classifieds on both of their logins. One member used another member's login to help him on his sig -- and he too is now hosed from logging into the classifieds.

If you look -- you will also see that unregistered people are able to place ads. I've triple checked the User config in the Admin area -- and the only YES is for them to view ads.

I really need to get this fixed ASAP. We used the GEO-Source programs for a long time -- and the classifieds has always been popular. We had usually had about 125-150 ads a week, but have been hosed for close to a week. My in-box and PM box is full of people telling me they can't use the classifieds -- and I waste an hour a day answering them -- asking them to be patient.

I'll be in court all day (we're adopting a little girl) and won't be able to respond to anything until tonight -- but there is a thread where I've asked people to be specific with their problems, what browser they use, what the settings are, etc. It is at http://www.moparstyle.net/forums/sho...810#post510810 -- start with the posts made after 4PM Sunday as I've done nothing to try to resolve this since then.
