Just testing version 9.63 Access...

1. Login to Admin control panel and then forum statistics. Don't do anything,.. After a few seconds, the statistics page will refresh and I get this message:
Error
Only members with sufficient permission can access this page.
A security error has occurred with authentication.
Please ensure that all cookies are enabled on your web browser, you are not using a saved or cached copy of the page, and your Firewall/Proxy settings are not hiding or masking your IP address
.


2. Found this on line 2360, functions_common.asp

    If Err.Number <> 0 Then    Call errorMsg("An error has occurred during logging.<br />Please check the File System Object (FSO) is installed on the server.", "logAction()_create_FSO_object", "functions_commin.asp")

1. It appears that the meta refresh needs to be removed from this file as a meta refresh doesn't pass across the referrer

2. Thanks, this spelling mistake will be corrected.

Not sure what you mean huntedman? The first is to remove the meta refresh from the admin statistics page and manually click the refresh icon, and the second is a spelling mistake which would not affect the running of the forum.

Hello, I get the same error when I try to remove member permission (click on the icon remove) (admin_remove_permission.asp)
Does Anyone has this problem?

Error Only members with sufficient permission can access this page.

There appears to be a bug that means that you will get this error if you click the delete icon for individual member permissions set on sub forums.

This is due to the XID not being placed in the link for sub forums and so the cross site form forgery checks fails and kicks the admin from the admin area.

Will look at having this fixed for the next release, in the meantime the only workaround would be to make the sub forum and main forum while you delete the members permissions.

Thanks Bruce,
Yes, that's right, this member has "forum moderator" permission on the sub forum. So, to fix this issue, do you mean we have to change a sub forum to become a main forum?

For the moment yes, the workaround is:-

Change the sub forum to a main forum, delete the members permission, then move the forum back to being a sub forum.
