Admin CP looping

Candoto · August 26th, 2007, 01:33 PM

Hi, I've installed Photopost today seemingly correctly but when I log in to the admin cp in VB, clicking on the links to the left just loops and don't open. Hope it's nothing too serious but what could it be?

One thing might be that I've changed the 'admincp' login page to 'login'?

Also is it okay to change the name of Photopost sp it's forum.net/somethingelse without problems? and is there any other security tricks?

Thanks.

If you installed and this is integrated with vb then make sure on install step 4 you place the proper cookie prefix for vb when you install

Hi, I've reinstalled with the prefix added on step 4 but it still won't let me log in to the admin cp. Well, log in yes but links can't be clicked. They just loop to the same state.

Have you entered the correct vb license number on the config?

I copied and pasted it after finding it from the instructions. It does have letters in it as well?

I don't suppose you would have a quick look so you know what I mean by logging into the account if I told you it. Think something has gone drastically wrong.

It's affected posting as well. Smilies and Bold, Italic buttons etc can't be pressed when hovered over.

Strange. Something has happened. The admin CP box sections are there but with every option of all the sections in non-collapsable boxes.

The admin does not have collapsible anything so does that mean you are solved now?

Well, the admincp sections in VB are always collapsible and these aren't so things aren't right but I can live with it now I can see the sections. Even if it means noone can use a smiley or bold or italiic when posting.

Well remember the only issue here is your expecting this to be some vb plugin and its not. Photopost Pro is a full feature program and separate from vbulletin. We have an integration module which allows logins to be the same and we use the vb header style system etc but the admin sections are totally separate

So unfortunately what you say is not right are absolutely 100% right
