Registered user uploading as Unregistered?

One of the registered users to my site's classifieds is unable to login under his registered username but can upload pictures as Unregistered even though unregistered users are not allowed too. Settings are set so only registered users can upload ads.

I became aware of his initial problem when he sent this email on 12-14-04:

I had registered as " xxxxxx " when I lived in Texas and had another
e-mail address. I just moved this month to Nevada and can not log onto the
site... any help? I know I was logging on as "xxxxxx" but can't remember what I used as a password. The other problem was I no longer have
the old e-mail address so can't do the reset password thing either. I
would really like to keep my username of "xxxxxx".

So I replied:
I have registered you as xxxxxx with your email address; xxxxxx@xxxxxx.com and your password is xxxxxx, all lower case letters. I was able to login/logout of your account with that information. Both the forum and classifieds worked okay. Please give it another try to see if it works on your end as well.

His reply:
It works great-thanks.

A couple of weeks later (01-03-05) he uploaded an ad as 'Unregistered' to which I sent:
You placed the ad shown below in the classifieds early this morning. The
ad is fine but what is strange is that it was posted under an 'Unregistered'
username, which shouldn't be possible. Because of this I deleted the ad.
Believe it or not anybody could have deleted it (or edited it) which is why
unregistered users are not able to place ads.

His reply:
Thanks. I logged in last night three times and each time it said
unregistered but it took the ad so I figured something was up.

Yesterday he managed to do it again - but he is the only one who can. Any idea of what's causing this or how to fix it?

Thank you for your help.

Unregistered ads problem

I am having a similar problem. I have permissions set so unregistered members can NOT post ads. But somehow they keep posting them. I believe that they are actually registered users logged into vBulletin but that login did not translate over to PP Classifieds. So, they are posting ads and the name comes up as "Unregistered", then I tell them to be sure to login to the classified software, they do that and place a new ad with the correct username. Anyway, I'm not sure the best way to correct this login issue and I really think PhotoPost should not allow any ads to be posted as "Unregistered" when the permissions do not allow it. I'll be doublechecking the cookie settings but please let me know if you have any suggestions to fix this. Thanks.

Are you using Classifieds 2.1?

Usually this is associated with older versions of the program that did not use the session cookie and users did not cookie themselves and users did not properly install the program with the right cookie settings

In Classifieds 2.1 we have enhanced VB integration where we use the cookie settings of VB3 if your using the vb3 integration. I would make sure your running 2.1

I'm using PhotoPost Classifieds 1.8.2 as well. It has been integrated with VB from day one (both were launched same day) and integrated login/logout has not been a problem.
Looks like I will be upgrading.
Thanks

I have updated to 2.1 and still have login issues. Classifieds will NOT log me out. I have tried the settings using .domain.com and leaving blank. No luck either way. VB3 loggs me out fine. I am apparently logged out of photopost fine each time. This Classifieds software is loaded with bugs. I just fixed the "You did not fill in all the required fields." comment bug. Is this ever going to be stable?

2.1 is not loaded with bugs.

Thats a little extreme. That bug fix was just posted a couple days ago. Michael will be updating the build.

I send emails of any fixes I suggest and then he updates the build. This takes a few days

As far as your login I would ensure your cookie settings are correct and you have the correct vb license number entered. This is always a cookie issue.
