index log in and Mozilla?

[btappan]

for some reason when a user logs in on the index page and they are redirected, the log in box does not show their avatar or welcome or anything. they are logged in, but the login box does not update to welcome them, it still shows a blank username and password field. This only happens in mozilla, anybody got any idea why?

In your adv_portal_welcomeblock template, look for:

<input name="vb_login_md5password" type="hidden" />

Right below that, Add:

<input type="hidden" name="forceredirect" value="1" />

Let me know if that makes any difference.

hey, thanks for the reply but it still is not working. now I get the same "thank you for logging in ......." box that says proceed at the bottom like when i log in to my admincp. then I am redirected to the index page where the login block has still not changed to the welcome block. :confused:

I discovered it is also a problem with my other blocks, if a user is logged in, the block i titled "attention new users" is supposed to go away, as it is not shown to registered users. it works fine as well in IE. even if i login via the navbar on the forum pages, and it shows me as logged in, when i go back to the homepage, the content has not changed. I looked at some other VBA sites last nite to test this and theirs worked! so this problem is exclusive to me? should i try uninstalling VBA and reinstalling?

I actually run into this problem on other people's sites. I've played with a bit on my own site and didn't have the problem initially, but I think I may have it now.

Any solution to the problem? I am getting the same problem on my site (www.msdhw.com). -Ivan
