After upgrade.....While in the administration panel....as I hover over the module icons/logo's.... the small pop window that used to appear now expands the entire width of the screen and won't close.

Any ideas??
Also...it doesn't appear the session.php file was updated in the 18.1 release to fix the login issue. Unless I've missed something.

Great work other than that.

Does this also effect the 2.2 branch?

If Yes, when will this be fixed?

Just found another problem after upgrade. On some of my themes.... the menus to the left (ie Main Menu, User Menu) no longer maintain the proper "carriage returns". The menu list options roll into each other on the same line.

What file would I have to edit to correct this issue?
Posted: 2008/2/24 14:57 • Updated: 2008/2/24 14:57
Hi:

After upgrading, I cannot login (no matter what browser).

Changing line 80 of kernel/session.php to the following fixed it:

var $enableRegenerateId true;


(it's declared as "false" in 2.0.18.1, but it was "true" in 2.0.18).

Regards: Colossus

Colossus,

Same for me. I've got custom session enabled which I think needs var $enableRegenerateId = true;

Would be nice to have an explanation of how this works or what it does. Logging in problems are the most common problem I have with members on my site (not always xoops related!)

Found this (refers to XOOPS 2.0.17.1):
Quote:
This version addresses login issues experienced by some Internet Explorer users and sites hosted with specific PHP versions. It also addresses a potential vulnerability identified in the uploader class in case upload configuration is not set properly by modules. There is a separate patch for the uploader class you can apply to all XOOPS sites - download it from XOOPS SourceForge.

If your users still experience login problems after implementing the patch, the site administrator can turn on custom session in system preferences, or set "enableRegenerateId" to FALSE in /kernel/session.php line #78 (Do not do both. Before you set enableRegenerateId to FALSE, turn custom sessions OFF.)

Find in the stylesheet (style.css) where your main menu is defined (td#mainmenu a) and add the following:
displayblock;


Now it should look like this example:
td#mainmenu a {    
    
color:#FFFFFF;
        
displayblock;
        
margin0;
        
padding4px;}

Is there known issue about Opera browser? I'm using it and I can't login. Even on the Xoops.org no. I could login before. But now I can't. And I don't know since when I can't login.

Very nice.

Question: Has GIJoes Autologin been updated for 18.1?
Posted: 2008/3/3 1:17 • Updated: 2008/3/3 1:17
Gijoes Autologin stop supporting xoops.org recently (2.0.17 last version).
Quote:


GIJOE:
I don't know because I've already removed core from xoops.org.

I was disappointed by their attitude against my suggestion. They ignore me, then I have to ignore them.

If they fix resource.db.php, I'll reinstall their latest versions.

But I guess they will never fix it


I think Gijoes works are a 'must have'!
It would be unforgivable lose.

Core team: will be fixed it in future versions or the plans are waive gijoes works?

Right now im using Xoops 2.0.17
Can i upgrade directly to 2.0.18.1 or do i need to go to 2.0.18 and then to 2.0.18.1??
Posted: 2008/3/5 20:06 • Updated: 2008/3/5 20:06
GI Joe's work is indeed awesome. It would be a shame to lose him.

I can understand his complaint.

After the update, my old newbb forum (version 2) doesn't work anymore

Thank God I always update a test site first.

Also the session bug is really annoying as I couldn't log in as an admin to switch off user based sessions first.

Why is such a crap being officially released?
Posted: 2008/3/20 6:48 • Updated: 2008/3/20 6:48
Can anyone confirm that issue with newbb?

Don't know if its related but ever since our upgrade we are encountering
"PHP has encountered an Access Violation"
errors when try to access the forum.
(cbb 1.16 actually)
Posted: 2008/4/27 12:32 • Updated: 2008/4/27 12:32
I had similar issues, but reverted back to before the upgrade until I find the time to seek a solution.

Sorry that's of no help.

Interesting: though it may happen again it hasnt for awhile now. Here's what weve done.

The issue with the log in (mentioned earlier by someone else) also had created session info havoc for us. Our session info table was too full. We cleared the records out, and so far we have not been getting that PHP error. Hopefully that was it! We also updateed that log in issue..(kernal/session .."true" etc.)

Our guess being that our site had been running a full day before we realized people could not log in after our upgrade. And yet, we had custom sessions enabled. Again it was very full. And the PHP error we kept getting usually refers to an overtaxed resource or permission issue.

Hmmm.
(crosses fingers)
we will see..If I dont post an update then thats what worked for us.

update:
Went to install mastop publish and ran into the same problem, With php errors when visitng forums and some links
Posted: 2008/4/27 14:49 • Updated: 2008/4/28 13:13
So which is the right method for fixing the log in issue with this version?
Regenerate=True ? False?

Feel like this edit, while working for log in is causing other issues on our site but not sure

Autologin hack for XOOPS 2.0.18.1
Posted: 2008/5/14 14:36 • Updated: 2008/5/14 14:36
I dont know if this information will help anybody or is it even something new.
However I had also alot of problems with this issua, then i figured out that in my IE settings privacy settings was set from default to high. In that case i could login but i was not loged in next time when clicked something in my xoops page. Changing back to default did do the trick. Medium High setting doesnt cause any problems.
