#1 Posted on: 2009/11/26 5:48 Why one user can edit another user's profile?

When user (John) logs in and goes to Profile » Edit Profile he is given detail of (Peter) to edit. This is a serious blander that has led me to take down my site.

I need someone from the XOOPS to give details and see whats wrong. The site cannot run like this, its a breach of users privacy and a massive mess.

are you sure you set up profile module permissions correct?

Probably you have given module admin rights for the profile module to registered users. Module access right will do for anonymous and registered users.

#6 Posted on: 2009/11/26 7:30 Re: Why one user can edit another user's profile?
Let me repeat again.

When user (John) logs in and goes to his Profile he see his correct details as below

modules/profile/userinfo.php

Profile » User profile

John john@email.com


But when he clicks edit profile.

Profile » Edit Profile

He gets this

Basic Information

Username
Peter
Email
peter@email.com


So John cant edit his own account but he can edit peters.

I have checked with another user.

Sandra logs in as Sandra goes to edit account and she get

Basic Information

Username
Peter
Email
peter@email.com


Whats with this peters account it appearing on anyone who wants to edit there account.

Could it be cache problem? Do you have cache set for profile module?

Is there the same mixup when they edit their avatar or going to their Private messages (from within profile view)?

Yes, that was the problem, i have removed the 1 week cache and now it works fine.
Thanks

What can i do to save user login details for easy access eg for a week? I dont want a situation where a user has to type username an password all the time.

Sorry there, thats not what i ment, I simply forgot the words (my login) and now i see the absence of those two words changed what i ment. Here is what i ment including the missing words.

Grammar: someone from the XOOPS to give details and see whats wrong. Doesnt make sense.

I was not blaming xoops, i wanted to say that i can only trust someone from XOOPS with my login details.

MY APOLOGIES.
