Fixed bug #898776: XOOPS module resolution for www.host.com and host.com (wulff_dk)


Just noticed that if you had set your URL to domain.com in the mainfile and if you tried to login via www.domain.com/user.php, you would end up with no admin menu after the login.

While using the previous trick by wulff_dk
[url=http://xoops-tips.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=4]
yoursite.com vs www.yoursite.com[/url]

has no such effect.

i suppose the easiest way to get round this is as i did on my site..

i installed using www.domain.co.uk

i then setup in my control panel for the server..

www.domain.com this will redirect to www.domain.co.uk

domain.co.uk redirects to www.domain.co.uk
domain.com redirects to www.domain.co.uk

of course you can do these anyway round if u wish..

that way it makes no difference what url a user types, they will always be redirected to the www.domain.co.uk address by using the dns settings..

on my previous site b4 changing to xoops.. i had my forum at forum.domain.com

so i created this in my new server host control panel and setup a redirect to point to (forum.domain.com) redirects to www.domain.co.uk/modules/ipboard

this way any1 still using the forum.domain url can still reach the forum with it..

m0nty:

I do not have any problems using both www.domain.com and domain.com as URLs. Both will reach my site.

The bug I am reporting:

if I were to login with 2.0.7 via www.domain.com/user.php while domain.com is the URL in my mainfile, I would login WITHOUT the admin menu. I would have the admin menu if login via domain.com/user.php

This is NOT the case with previous hack.
