cant join or update a profile since upgrading to 7.07

No matter how hard i try I can not join my site or save an updated profile. both pages just sit there and dont react to the save button. Ive cleared cache, tried IE and firefox and even my galaxy tab to no avail. Ive added nothing at all to the join page except Deanos facebook mod and that worked perfect. Any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance.

Jim

Must be somebody out there with some ideas for me to try. This is so frustrating ask new ppl to join then finding out they cant. Since my last post ive disabled the spam and ip filters and unticked the databse cache and STILL no luck. I tested all of the upgrade on a test site and all worked well. I then upgraded from 7.00 to 7.07 un my live site and this is when problems started. I spent many hours trying to solve this problem and really need to be pointed in the right direction.

Thanks in advance

You will need to check your php error logs for clues.

I suspect one or more of the files in the inc or inc/classes folders did not get over written with the updated files from the patch. But without an error it will be difficult to tell which one.

If you uploaded via FTP then also check the FTP logs for indictions of transfer errors.

Hi deano

Ive copied all the inc/*.* from 7.01 - 7.07 one version at a time and then tried to join my site without any joy. Ive looked through the ftp logs without success. Im on a shared server so assume i wont have access to the php logs?

Btw ive cleared cache everytime ive uploaded the inc/directory from v7.01 - v7.07 and still nothing. I just cant work it out.

Anymore ideas of where to look?

Btw thanks very much guys for trying to help me out, I appreciate it.

Thanks

Jim

I successfully joined using Deanos FB connect on your site, but cannot edit the profile info once joined.

the "Edit Profile Privacy" block does work..

Hi Newton27

Sorry I forgot to mention that you can join my site using the fbconnect. Its trying to use the normal join button that doesnt work and as uve noticed, you cant save your profile info once registered. Even as admin you cant edit this info.

Im still working on trying to fix it and know I will reach the promised land sometime:-)

Thanks for your efforts

Jim

I see this error when trying to join your site;

Fatal error: Call to undefined function DontUsedNickName() in /home/slim0007/public_html/inc/classes/BxDolProfileFields.php(372) : runtime-created function on line 1

Check to see if the nickname restriction mod you added is causing issues with your join or edit page.

 uninstalling the mod should take care of it

Thanks for your response guys. After reading your replies i have been able to register and to save profile info after editing it. The problem was down to the nickname block as used in join form. This has always been used on both test and live sites and ever since i first started using dolphin, so am lost as to why its a problem now.

If i add the nickname back to join or edit profile then neither will work. If you check the advanced settings in nickname block it has the following inside it.

return ( DontUsedNickName($arg0) and preg_match( '/^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$/', $arg0 ) and !file_exists( $dir['root'] . $arg0 ) );

This is where the error lies but where im lost is that this has always been part of my site without any problems. Can someone check the advanced settings in nickname block. ie: builders, profile fields,join form.and compare the above to yours?

Many thanks guys for all your help. Im almost there now. I really need to sort this as the nickname block is part of using my site and useless without it,

Sorry forgot to mention that if you use the nickname block but remove the

return ( DontUsedNickName($arg0) and preg_match( '/^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$/', $arg0 ) and !file_exists( $dir['root'] . $arg0 ) );

Then you can still register and use the site. Its the above that is causing the problem but not being a coder im not sure whats wrong. Im sure the above is error checking to make sure u dont enter a duplicate nickname etc.

Almost there now. Just need to resolve the above and im on my way.lol

Thanks to all those that have helped me reach this stage.

Jim

 yes but it stoped working after the upgrade what mods are u using for the nickname restriction im 90% sure there is one file you need to edit for the nickname restriction to work,maybe you skiped that part when upgrading.

Hi prolaznik

As far as i know im not using any mods for the nickname restriction. Obviously something within that nickname block is conflicting to cause this error ive got, but ive no idea what it is.

All i can say is that when i remove the following it works great, meaning the something in that script is wrong or is causing a conflict with the registration process,

return ( DontUsedNickName($arg0) and preg_match( '/^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$/', $arg0 ) and !file_exists( $dir['root'] . $arg0 ) );

When the above is removed all works great so its obviously the reason for the error.

Yes you are using a mod. The function in that field you removed. DontUsedNickName is part of this free mod.

http://www.boonex.com/m/NickName_Restriction_2010_01_18

It has a source code part to the mod with a change in inc/design.inc.php

The upgrade to dolphin 7.0.7 over writes that file thus is the cause of the undefined function error.

Source code mods that were made to files replaced during a dolphin upgrade need to be reapplied after a upgrade to dolphin.

 if you don't reinstall the mod, then don't remove it just change it to

return ( preg_match( '/^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$/', $arg0 ) and !file_exists( $dir['root'] . $arg0 ) );

Guys, You are stars and I thank you all for your patient and your help.

Deano, you was right. A long while ago I had installed that mod. I simply updated the design.inc.php as suggested and then put data back into nickname block and all works well.

Thank you all and I hope this thread may help someone else out as well.

I owe you all a big drink and if any of you travel to england, Let me know and I will buy you the biggest jug of beer I can find.
