Maybe this could be a database error? I took this database from the previous website under a different domain. Is there something in the MySQL dump that I need to fix? like replacing the old domain entries with the new domain? It is really wierd because it has just recently started doing this after over a week of no problems.

No, no firewall, and cookies are enabled. Nothing has changed with the server side or client side. Now it seems to be working ok. But then it will start to mess up again.

I think I have posted this somewhere before then gave up on it. I have two websites (www.blackmoonskeep.net/shoguate and www.shogunate.net). My blackmoonkseep.net/shogunate works fine as far as logging in (the site was turned off because I thought I had my other site fixed) and www.shogunate.net was working just fine until tonight. It sends me into a login loop. Both sites are on the same host so the set-up hasn't changed. I did a fresh install of XOOPS 2.0.6 and restored a MySQL dump from my first site. All was working great, but now it just loops me back. Not sure if anyone else has had this problem (I think there were a few) and don't know if anyone figured out what was wrong. Any ideas???

P.S. When I am able to log in, it will let me on the site for a while then log me back off. Then I have to go through the loop again or just wait for a bit and it logs me in with no problems.

I corrected the sizes, took out the <br> (I still don't know how that got there) and changed the padding px. It works great! Thanks!!!!!

I don't know what the <br> was for, but I removed it and I still have the space. Something in my CSS possibly?

My CSS:

I am sorry, the correct website will behttp://www.shogunate.net. I have my new theme selectable by webmasters only in the Themes block so none of the current users will be able to see the theme until it is done. I did fresh-install this site and fresh installed the =FC= (4thefort) templates. The theme I have up right now is the theme that came with the =FC= template set. Since you probably won't have access to the site since it is user group controlled, if you can look at the current theme and css and tell me how to eliminate that gap between the Login Block and the Main Menu Block.

The new theme I am working on is just a dupe of the =FC2= theme currently installed with some replacement graphics. I also changed my url in my profile, sorry about that. If you need me to set up a user to allow you to view my theme, let me know and I can pm you the info. thx.

Is it possible to edit the templates or blocks so that all my left blocks are actually ONE block? I posted previously that I want my blocks to "run together" graphics-wise, however, if I am able to put my Main Menu, User Menu, Who's Online and Recent Screenshots into 1 block instead of 4, it would be easier. Can this be done, and if so, how?

I have edited my theme so that all the left blocks "run together" graphic-wise, and same with the right blocks, however, I still have a space between the blocks, say between the Main Menu and the User menu. I have looked in my style.css and theme.html and even the html files for the right and left block themes. I am lost, any ideas?

how am I able to change the max size? I tried changing it to 300k instead of 100k but it doesnt change. chmod problems? bug? just an internal limit?

thanks.... I have edited the code, but havent edited the theme template. will check it out. :)
