Still cannot 'mark forums read'???

[gertrude]

When I try to "mark forums read', I get a message that says something like "can't do that. You have an invalid security token".


ADMINS!! any ideas?????

[Sam Edwards]

Im afraid I dont have a clue gertrude but I will see what I can find out for you.

[joemac]

Working on it.

I often find that when I arrive at the TCB home page I cant use the mark forums read, profile buttons etc...

So I have to click on the unread posts then access those buttons from there (took 2years to work that out).

Working on it.



In your forumhome template, find the following code:
Code:
<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]do=markread rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[mark_forums_read]</a>
Replace it with this:
Code:
<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]do=markread&amp;markreadhash=$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[mark_forums_read]</a>
In your navbar template (twice), find this code:
Code:
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]do=markread" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[mark_forums_read]</a></td>
And replace with this:
Code:
<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]do=markread&amp;markreadhash=$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[mark_forums_read]</a>

Thanks ExZim,

Gertrude, the problem should be resolved - please let me know if this is not the case.

[Shayne]

Actually, that didnt work. I'll need to investigate further and find the rogue addon that didnt like the latest upgrade.

[gertrude]

I am thinking that the problem could be that I've updated my ZoneAlarm. It is the only thing that has changed..or not changed..recently.

Will try to upgrade, then let you know.

Boards, tried all those things...no joy, I'm afraid. :smiley13:

[Belladonna]

No Gertrude, I am having the same problem and am using the same computer, browser, etc. Thanks for the efforts though Shayne and Joe xx

[jiggs]

TN can we sue them?

[Belladonna]

TN can we sue them?

Eish, don't even joke about suing Jiggsy!!! I heard that's how one of the other Zimbo/Rhodie sites got shut down!!! Don't know how true it was, but the site concerned was buzzing one day and gone the next with no explanation!!! :smiley19:

[Tricky Nicky]

TN can we sue them?

@ Jiggs - LOL! Sure, I will get right on it for you! :smiley36: :smiley36:

[joemac]

Mmmmm, the 'upgrade ' has made all sorts of interesting changes. Fix one thing, another breaks. Sigh.....

[joemac]

Okay, try now.

[blueheeler]

Okay, try now.

Nope!

[jiggs]

and it tell you to inform the administrator that it is buggered but wont let you do that either

[licorice]

Yup, I cant either,
I get this message

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was invalid.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator (http://www.thechiefbaboon.com/forums/sendmessage.php) and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

[gertrude]

Still not working, Joe

[Belladonna]

Sorry to be a pest, but is this going to be sorted out?? I am really struggling now because I have limited internet access over here and am finding it hard keeping track of which ones I've read but have new posts since logging in and which ones I haven't!!! Wish I could read them all like I used to do, but ....

[Shayne]

Do you get this message?

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator (http://www.thechiefbaboon.com/forums/sendmessage.php) and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

Also are you using green or blue baboon?

[Belladonna]

That's the message and I am using the green Baboon. About to change over to blue in case that sorts the problem...

[Belladonna]

Right changed to blue and still can't mark forums read :(
