If I'm asked for support my first question is always "did you clear your cache and cookies?" Also, try it on different browsers; the issues you're having could be related to a specific browser. IE, FireFox, Safari, Opera, and Chrome should always be used to test since they represent the lion's share of the market.

I should of mentioned it in the first post but I already cleared cache and cookies and even went so far as to try it on my laptop which uses both a separate browser but also a separate OS.

I'm going to reinstall both mediawiki 1.15 and vbulletin 3.8.3 and see if it persists and I'll post here my results.

For the rifeforum.com/rifeforum.org use case, you cannot achieve SSO using this hack across two different domains. It's just how it works - the cookies are not readable across domains. You will need some sort of federated authorization token to achieve this (i.e. SAML tokens or OpenID). You can achieve it with subdomains (i.e. forum.rifeforums.com, wiki.rifeforums.com, etc) but I have not tested this use case and it may prove buggy.

Regarding the vBa CMPS use cases - while I've used this successfully on forums running vBa (see: http://community.ingres.com) I cannot guarantee compatibility with any other installed products. The permutations of hacks is exponential and there's no way I can reasonably test against everything out there =[

Hi NoeJeko
I have got this hack running on both domains. It is just necessary to login again for the second domain (both domains have to point to the same place on the web server). The second login is even useful as I can use my normal forum username when I use the rifeforum.com domain and a different (pseudo) username with the rifewiki.org domain. By simply calling the domain with the respective domain, I can choose which username I wise to use with the Wiki.

I have solved the CMPS implementation. By adding that code to the CMPS index.php, those using the rifewiki.org domain are simply redirected to the correct rifewiki.org/wiki url.

Can't quite get it work on my GoDaddy setup.

If I add a .htaccess file with just 'php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off' then I get the apache error you'll see if you try the link above.

If I remove the .htaccess file and try to edit a page it'll tell me the token is borked and I can't save the page.

Any ideas on what I need to do?

On GoDaddy, don't put it in the htaccess file. Put it in either the php.ini or php5.ini file, depending on whether you are using php v5 or not. If you don't have one of those files in your root directory, create it and put in only that line.

Thank for the advice - I hadn't even realised the php.ini file was available to use.

I've added 'php_flag magic_quotes_gpc = off' to it, and deleted .htaccess.

Now I still get the error I had before when .htaccess wasn't available:

Quote:

Your edit has been rejected because your client mangled the punctuation characters in the edit token. The edit has been rejected to prevent corruption of the page text. This sometimes happens when you are using a buggy web-based anonymous proxy service.

I also copied php.ini as php5.ini to ensure it picked at least one of them up.

I've actually moved hosts to A2hosting because of various problem with Godaddy.com

Has anyone got this working on A2 or similar, because I'm still getting the same problem as above...

Now works for me.

Using .htaccess file instead.

"php_flag magic_quotes_gpc = off" will cause a 500 error
"php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off" (without the equals sign) works!

Hello

I was not able to brak the bug down to a reproducable point, but as much: Sometimes I won't be logged in automatically (MSIE, Firefox, Opera). Then I change "Disallowed Usergroups" to "1,3,4,8,12" (I'm part of none of them) instead of "1,2,3,4,8,12" (I'm Part of 2, but also have 6,10,11) and can log in.

Now I change back to "1,2,3,4,8,12" and still will be able to log in. (Even after Browser-Restart and delete of "private Data, Cache, ...") on all three Browsers!

Same behaviour with a test user, which has 2 and 11 (Both tested: 2 Primary or 11 Primary). Sometimes it works, sometimes not...

I'm in the process of moving my forum and wiki to a new host, and am having issues with the wiki. I thought I had moved over all MW files successfully, and I also thought I made the necessary changes in the localsettings file, but I get this error when I go to the wiki:

Is there any place obvious I should start to look?
