I was able to edit templates fine.. then all of the sudden it won't let me save (or revert back to original template). I get this message:

In order to accept POST request originating from this domain, the admin must add this domain to the whitelist.

Any clue?

In your vBulletin Options, add your domain name to the Post Referrer Whitelist. That should correct the problem.

I see what you mean.. but it won't let me! I haven't changed anything.. so not sure why it's not letting me save now!

Am I going to have to reinstall and make sure to put in the "domain" before continuing?

Can you not access the Admin CP directly?

I can access the Admin CP.. logging in hasn't been an issue. It's just when I go to save.. and also certain pages are now not showing up -- like "Whats new". It tries to access the subdomain instead of the domain itself?

So your saying that saving settings in the Admin CP still takes you to the domain whitelist message? That's odd. I assume you haven't already tried saving that particular settings just to see if it sticks?

Exactly. For some reason it wants to use the subdomain rather than the domain (???) And I do select "save" anyway - but just get that message and the settings are not sticking.

I almost forgot, you should be able to get your host to add the domain to their whitelist. Or you might have a setting for it if you have cPanel.

But the domain is created via their hosting service. Why would they not be on its own acceptable domain list?

That doesn't mean that by default, the domain has been accepted to allow all POST requests. I had to add mine to the whitelist as well, as I have more than one domain on the server.

NVM. I just un-added the domain from my host.. and then added it back. Re-installed the vbulletin (but did nothing with the databases.. used the same databases). And then while it was WORKING went and quickly added subdomains in question to white list. PITA but I hope it fixed everything in the long run.

Still don't understand why it stopped working to begin with!
