I don't stay logged in PART TWO

Post by DAVE101 » Sat Jun 27, 2009 2:24 pm

I understand some of you may get frustrated with me, but I don't understand how nobody else sees this as an issue. It's not that typing "WWW." is difficult, this problem arises elsewhere.

For example, when I have a PM and get linked from my email, it reads this: ucp.php?i=pm&folder=inbox so again any user would be prompted with a log in screen.

I can not find any other phpBB site that has this bug, nor is it likely that it is designed to malfunction like this. Just trying to help. :?

I just received a PM notice and the URL was to www.indyddr.com and it worked fine.

Gee...thanks for calling me a liar. I just had Fluffy send me a PM again to test. Here is the email I got (I'm quoting it in a code block so that phpBB doesn't try to interpret the URL at all):

Code: Select all

Hello Ho,

You have received a new private message from "Fluffyumpkins" to your account on "IndyDDR.com" with the following subject:

Balderdash!

You can view your new message by clicking on the following link:

Thanks, IndyDDR.com
Outlook is my email client, but I really don't see how that would make any difference.

Go change your e-mail settings while you are logged in at www.indyddr.com, I'm betting the cookie on your system still has just indyddr.com stored in the cookie for e-mail settings.

The phpBB code simply sends the email using the domain that whoever sent the message was using. So, if somebody sends you a message while accessing the site using http://indyddr.com, that's what will be in the email.

(Yes, I tested this a while back when the issue was first raised - I'm not 100% sure how I want to go about fixing it yet, so hold your horses)
A normality test:
+++ATH
If you are no longer connected to the internet, you need to apply more wax to your modem: it'll make it go faster.
If you find this funny, you're a nerd.
If neither of the above apply, you are normal. Congratulations.
