cmps logout error

[Grae]

I am getting the following error when trying to logout from the cmps:
An error occurred while attempting to log you out. Click here to log out.

cmps logout link:
/forum/login.php?do=logout&u=1

The forum logout link (working) has a hascode, should the cmps have one as well? I tried reverting the cmps welcome block, but that did not help.

I was having other related cmps login problems, but fixed them with brian's fix in the faq forum (.mysite.com)

Thanks :)

I could have swore that was corrected in a previous version, but apparently not. If you'll look in your adv_portal_welcomeblock template for 2 instances of this code:
login.php?$session[sessionurl]do=logout&u=$bbuserinfo[userid]

And replace both with this:
login.php?$session[sessionurl]do=logout&logouthash=$bbuserinfo[logouthash]

Then that should take care of the problem.

Hello.

I just upgraded to vb 3.5.0 from vb 3.0.9 and from vba 2.0 (for vb 3.0.x) to vba 2.0 (for vb 3.5.0) after downloading on vb & vba on 9/30/05. I made the above change in both places as mentioned because I couldn't logout in the welcome block.

The revision fixed the logout link in the welcome block, but I still have a problem logging out from the link in the navbar. The login in the navbar works. The login in the welcome block doesn't work since it hasn't added the '/forum' prefix to 'login.php' url.

How to fix these 2 problems?

Thanks in advance.

Revert your navbar template. Then make sure you have this for the 'Form Code' option in your welcome block module:
<script src="{$vbulletin->options[bburl]}/clientscript/vbulletin_md5.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <form action="{$vbulletin->options[bburl]}/login.php" method="post" onsubmit="md5hash(vb_login_password,vb_login_md5password)"> <input name="vb_login_md5password" type="hidden" /> <input name="s" type="hidden" value="" /> <input name="do" type="hidden" value="login" />

Thanks for your reply.

Reverting the navbar solved that logout problem.

Regarding the Welcome Block, exactly 'where' should I put this? Also, where is the closing </form> tag located? Keep the old login/logout code?

Maybe I'm reading too much into this; trying to make sure I'm putting this in the correct spot...

Thanks.

Admin CP => vBa CMPS => Edit Modules => Welcome Block => Form Code

When you have something entered there then the </form> tag is automatically added in the module.

That did it, Brian.

Thanks Much!!!:D

I also noticed this was happen with the whos online module

So I changed the 'Form Code' from

$vboptions[bburl]/online.php?$session[sessionurl]

to

{$vbulletin->options[bburl]}/online.php?$session[sessionurl]

in the Online Users users module settings

I could have swore that was corrected in a previous version, but apparently not. If you'll look in your adv_portal_welcomeblock template for 2 instances of this code:
login.php?$session[sessionurl]do=logout&amp;u=$bbuserinfo[userid]

And replace both with this:
login.php?$session[sessionurl]do=logout&amp;logouthash=$bbuserinfo[logouthash]

Then that should take care of the problem.

Just to let you know Brian I had to do this fix on the package I downloaded a few days ago...

There are other modules also with this problem.

I'm also experiancing the logout issue, but the form area only seems to show login code, nothing similar to the code mentioned above. :confused:

Disregard my previous post, I figured it out. phpbb convert here, still getting the hang of vb and advanced. :)

That's because I was checking something in this thread so I could post a link to it, but accidentally replied to this thread instead of the one I was reading. ;)

{$vbulletin->options[bburl]}/ seems to have become my new best friend - Ive found that the search module and the welcome module both seem to show the 'old' code and subsiquently I had issues with them... Ive also had to add {$vbulletin->options[bburl]}/ to my shoutbox template so that the incorrectly pointing .php pointed to the right place.

all i have problems with now is why my search and quicklink buttons dont seem to work anymore - the search is pointing in the right direction (ie - /forum/search.php but when I click that link it just does nothing - no drop down menu ?

this is very strange because I have a second page that acts as a staff introduction page ... this too has the default navbar/header - but those search and quick links work fine from there ?

:confused:
