1st problem

A very severe problem with the cell alignment in the Admin Control Panel -> User Settings page

2nd problem

During the initial set up of the forum there is a problem in the file function_session_data.asp where it points at line 626. It says the Mid function returns an error.

We are not able to recreate any of these issues in the lab. Try reuploading the original files again and see if that fixes your problem.

It has to do with the IP address. When the IP address is 127.0.0.1 it return an error by the Mid function.

I got it to work by making changes to the particular line of code. I changed the code

From

Len(strClientIP)-6

To

Len(strClientIP)-5

It work but after that I had another problem. Display IP Addresses to Moderators: does not work. Neither Yes nor No work. Moderator still cannot see the IP. I don't think it's related though. Please look into it.

We are aware with the new session system with shorter IP addresses such as localhost 127.0.0.1 which causes the error you mention and have fixed this for the next release which should have out next week.

Not displaying IP addresses to moderators would not be related as this has nothing to do with the permission system and will have to look in to this.
