I have Zone Alarm Pro and I don't have any problems getting into this site or my own or any others. However I still have the Register.php problem..no server found error...then when I reload a few times, it finally loads. Its gotta be an IE6 bug. But I seem to be one of very few that get this error. Anyways, I have Zone Alarm set to High Security for Internet Zone and Medium Security for my Trusted Zone. These settings should work for you in addition to any 3rd party cookie settings you adjust in windows. If windows cookie security settings need to be adjusted for any site to work, then XOOPS needs a fix for this.

Try that hack : here


Thanks, trollix, a useful thread.

I'm surprised by this - it effectively means that anyone running a firewall (most people?) isn't going to be able to register / login in to a XOOPS site without turning off their (default?) firewall settings. I guessed it was my firewall causing problems - most users won't and will just give up assuming 'crap site'.

I know little about PHP / mySQL but I do know the vast majority of sites allow me to register / logon without disabling my firewall.

I was hoping XOOPS was going to be my CMS of choice - but looks like it's not ready for the big time?

I know how to use my firewall, thanks. XOOPS does not appear in the site list - I assume it's identified only by its IP. Why?!

I'm registered at _many_ forums and XOOPS is the first one I've come across that requires me to disable "Block 3rd party cookies" and "Remove private header information" to make it work.

This is not a problem of XOOPS. If you use a Firewall you should know how to use it!

You can grant access for every single site or do it like you did, deactivate this function.

After a bit more playing - I need to run ZAP3 with "Block 3rd party cookies" unchecked to be able to login to my XOOPS account.

This doesn't seem too clever. Any developers like to comment?

Thanks.

Hi

I'm unable to login to my account with ZoneAlarm Pro 3 running (I was also unable to register with it running). I've not experienced this with any other sites.

Any ideas?

Thanks

David.

What would be real cool if there was a admin setting like 1-require email activation 2-activate immediatly 3-activate manualy by admins. That requires a bit of a redesign to the system and it would be up to the developers of XOOPS to decide if they want to put effort into that. Most communities would choose you to have a valid email.


Yes, i really like those options to be included in XOOPS too, and will be in the next release

I only want valid email activation only, hence I do get lots of bogus accounts that are not activated.

I then have to go and manually delete them.
