Getting redirected to Icyboards

Recommended Posts

I get redirected to the icyboards admin cp when I log in. I've had a look through settings, and found these which I think maybe a problem as they appear to point to icyboards.

 

$settings['avataruploadpath'] = "./userfiles/legendsofarda/uploads/avatars";

$settings['bburl'] = "http://legendsofarda.icyboards.net";

$settings['cookiedomain'] = ".legendsofarda.icyboards.net";

$settings['homeurl'] = "http://legendsofarda.icyboards.net";

$settings['uploadspath'] = "./userfiles/legendsofarda/uploads";
$settings['cdnurl'] = "https://static18.icyboards.net/legendsofarda"; (I've changed this one as it's in the guide, but I think the others are wrong, too.)

Thanks for reaching out! Your asking for help may help other people who may be looking on.

 

The settings file that you are looking at is written by mybb. Remember the fields I asked you to change in the ACP? Those will rewrite the settings above.

 

Trying to edit the settings file will just result in it being rewritten with the values that are in the ACP.

 

So onto your problem. I understand that every time you log into the admin cp, you find yourself in the icyboards ACP. What I'm not clear on is if you are clicking on the ACP link in the userlinks and that link is redirecting you to the icyboards ACP, or if you getting to the right login screen!

 

To test, manually plug in your ACP address and attempt to log in. Your ACP is just your domain with /admin on the end. So

 

yourdomain.com/admin/

 

Let me know whether or not you're successful. If you're not, give me a few hours to get to a computer and I can help further!

Thanks. I've managed to get into it, so it must be a problem with the links somewhere. I can't find those things in the acp.

 

When I click on configuration or any of the other links, I keep getting directed to the log in page - http://forum.legends-of-arda.uk/admin/index.php?module=config

My  host has sorted it out now so I can log in and go into configurations, etc. I've found site details and the settings.php looks ok now, but I still have these which I'm not sure are right. Will leaving them mess up uploads?

$settings['avataruploadpath'] = "./userfiles/legendsofarda/uploads/avatars";

$settings['uploadspath'] = "./userfiles/legendsofarda/uploads";

 

Edit: The log in isn't stable because I even after sorting the site details out, I still have the same issue and my host won't help me with it.

So to confirm @Icewolf what is your domain for your forum?:

http://legends-of-arda.uk/

????

Also, can you download your settings.php and your config.php, please remove any passwords and upload them to your post so I can take a look?

  • Thank you 1

The url for the forum is http://forum.legends-of-arda.uk/ as it's on a subdomain. I don't know what's causing the issue as at first it seems fine when I'm on the page, but when I close it, and then go back to it later, I can't get back in again, or I get the issue I described. 

settings(1).php

config(1).php

Can you please submit a ticket @Icewolf I won't do this for everyone but I want to see the issue. We will need admin access and FTP access.

This may not have anything to do with it, but worth a shot anyway...

 

Are you using the theme from the IcyBoards version of the site? If so, can you check your login and index templates and make sure there are no references to icyboards there? (EX- index_loginform)

And the headerinclude (under "ungrouped") for references to icyboards?

 

Or try using a default/alternate theme to see if the issue happens there too?

In the end this ended up just being a cached files/cookies issue. Possibly from the domain move etc. Once the cached files/cookies were cleared the redirection/login issue was resolved.
