However, from what I've read above, I don't understand what's happening either.

Maybe you can temporarily modify the code in functions_login.php and in verify_strike_status() and exec_strike_user(), put in code to log all info to a file and include the $_SERVER fields as well as the IPADDRESS and ALT_IP, then maybe you can figure out why it's happening.





No, this is the site for modifications, and it's supposed to be a community. It depends on people helping each other out, so unfortunately you aren't guaranteed to get an answer to a question (but we try). You can post at vbulletin.com (and it might be a good idea because not everyone from there participates here), but I think unless you have ticket support and you put in a ticket, you're not guaranteed an answer there either.

Thank you very much for your reply, I'll see if I can do some modification and figure out what's happening, and I'm indeed sorry for the confusion about the support forum - I'll make sure to post in the right place next time.

Thanks.
