G'day all,

Hoping someone can help me with a bit of a technical glitch. Basically, I can't add or edit any moderators to any of the forums at my site as whenever I click on a Go button in the Forum Manager in the site admin it leads to a blank page.

I'm guessing it's something in moderator.php that's causing it, but I've no idea what. If someone can help point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it, thanks!

Can you log into your admincp or use any other forms in it?
Are all the files in your admincp there (compare with vBulletin default files)?
Did you modify the files used lately?
What did you do before this started occuring?

Yep. The only one I'm having trouble with is the add/edit moderator function.

Yep.

I've added a few hacks to my forum, but none that involved moderator functions.

What did you do before this started occuring?

To be honest I don't recall as it's apparently been like this for a while; it's just gone unnoticed until we needed to add a new moderator.

there is no link between the moderator.php and forum.php file... if you get a blank page when going to the forum page, try looking at all the tools related to the forum... Create a new, or Edit one... if the bug occurs there, you have a code error in admincp/forum.php ... so check what file were edited by all the hacks you installed.

you might also want to just upload the new forum.php file to your webserver and then add any changes that your hacks might need to it again...
That'll probably only work flawlessly if you documented exactly what changes you made...

I've checked the add moderator function in both my existing forum.php and moderator.php files, and the code exactly matches that in the original files so I'm still scratching my head over why this is happening! :(

Have you tried loading the page in anthor browser? I know that is'nt really helpful if you don't have a second one installed but sometimes it dose work.

For kicks I would upload fresh copies of these files and see if the problem dose go away, sometimes that works to. ;)

What exactly have you modified in the admin cp, if anything at all?

Others are having the same trouble with different browsers.

I've added a few hacks, but nothing that modified forum.php or moderator.php
