Moderate.php

[Terrablade]

im getting this error https://imgur.com/bwr4jQY
moderate.php is inside modcp folder. What could be triggering this?

[kh99]

Did you maybe specify a different folder for modcp in your includes/config.php? Edit: Oh, well, I guess that wouldn't make any difference if you're going directly to it.

Is that the only script that has a problem?

[Terrablade]

The one and only. file in proper place proper permission and proper folder name both up and in config.

You have something changed in the template, if you look at your url it shows/moderate.php/?do=message when it should look like this /moderate.php?do=message..... see the missing forward slash after php in the second one?

I'm guessing you've edited a template or added the url somewhere yourself and added the forward slash :)

[Terrablade]

weird I have not touched anything of what you suggested :/

[kh99]

You erased the url in the picture, did it have /modcp/ in it?

[Terrablade]

no it didnt

[ShawneyJ]

could this possibly have something to do with any seo products installed? its just a thought.

what happens if you go to forum root and click moderator.php and open from there?

[kh99]

no it didnt

OK, well, wouldn't that be the problem? There is a moderator.php and moderation.php, but I don't think either of them have a do=message.

Anyway, I guess we should have asked this first: What did you do exactly to get that error?

[Simon Lloyd]

His url should have looked like www.mysite.com/modcp/moderate.php?do=messages i think the problem (if the OP hasn't messed with any templates...etc) might be in his .htaccess if it's adding a slask?? :confused:

Edit: code snippet from moderate.php// ###################### Start message moderation #######################
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'messages')
{

[kh99]

What I was saying is that the url should have included modcp in there somewhere, but apparently it didn't, so I think that's the problem. To be honest I don't think the extra slash matters.

I was also saying that another possiblilty is that the file name should have been moderate.php or moderator.php since those are files that aren't in modcp, but I guess that's not likely, especially since neither of hose has a do=message section.

[Simon Lloyd]

So, that means he either doesn't have a modcp and the files are in the general forum root, the url has been edited for display here and not been reconstructed properly or a template has been trashed somewhere.

(I did get you Kevin, i was really pointing out for the OP's sake how it should have looked and where he can check to see if the ?do exists, just didnt explain myself well :()

[Terrablade]

modcp exsists not with such name tho. I have not changed anything in any template regarding that. Moderate.php IS inside the modcp folder. clicking here http://prntscr.com/3wssk8 triggers that error page. Im using fractalizer mod but i never had this problem before.

Adding the mod folcer before the /moderate.php reslts in the same error of page not found

[Lynne]

If you are clicking a link in that drop down, it should go to moderation.php (which is in your root directory, not the modcp directory), not moderate.php.

[Terrablade]

fractalizer is the one acting there I believe. and in fractalizer code is moderate.php not moderation.php.. all other links work fine but the visitors message one

You are right lynne all the others point to moderation.php, why is this one pointing to moderate.php?

[Lynne]

I don't know. That very odd. Is it a modification doing that? Have you tried disabling modifications to see if it still does that? Or tried a default style?

[Terrablade]

Fractalizer is the only mod im using that deals with that. It enables those options in the notification area. It happens in default skin too

[Terrablade]

so noone else? this just happens when trying to go here http://prntscr.com/3z8cba
please need guidance/

[Simon Lloyd]

Have you tried what Lynne suggested? that mod will be available in all skins, you need to disable the mod or hooks system in order to prove it isn't native vb that has the issue, if you find it goes away when the hook system is turned off you need to seek support in the thread of whichever mod is causing the issue.

[Terrablade]

this is what the mod calls for

'visitormessage' => array(
'link' => $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/' . $config['Misc']['modcpdir'] . '/moderate.php?do=messages',
'count' => 0

When i click on it it takes me to http://www.sitename.com/moderate.php/?do=messages and page not found.. Is that / after moderate.php causing the issue? If so why is it adding that extra / ?

[Dave]

It might be an accident by the mod author? Well you can always remove the last slash and see if it works fine afterwards.

[Terrablade]

by doing so the page adds the / again.. I dont understand

[ozzy47]

Since it seems to be from the mod:

Questions/Problems regarding modifications/styles need to be asked in the modification/style thread. That is where the support for modification/style is - not out here in the main forums. Please note that if a modification/style is unsupported (or even if it says it is supported), you may be on your own if you chose to install it.
