Nuke 7.5 Security Code Image

Sergeant Joined: Aug 11, 2004 Posts: 75

Not exactly sure when this happens over the last few hours or why but the security code image for my login doesn't load anyloger. I went back through then3 mods and 2 blocks that I added to see that may have been the problem but none of the 5 required any changes to core files. Can someone help? Thanks.

URL Link to security code image changed in 7.5, so that's why some addon blocks/modules cannot displaying security code image properly. You'll have to change the PHP-Nuke scripts, find any occurences of:

Code:

modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=gfx

or:

Code:

admin.php?op=gfx

And replacing them into:

Code:

?gfx=gfx

or

Code:

index.php?gfx=gfx

Looking to that 3 mods and 2 blocks, if they're non-standard script files came with 7.5. It would be much easier if you post URL that showing the broken security code image.

My bad Madman, I did explain it well enough. I had the security code up and it worked. 3 mods, 2 blocks and a few days later, the security code stopped come up. So I look to see if it could have been something in those add-ons and it wasn't. They were just simple add-ons and could have been the problem. I'll put up the login block. Now what puzzles me is the login block that came with 7.5 works fine and the add-on login block was working but not anylonger. It will be a right block under the login that works.

I have no idea what the second login block is, let we assuming it's "Visitor Block", stored as "blocks/block-Visitor_Block.php". Now, edit this file using a text editor and find the following part of code:

Code:

modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=gfx&random_num=$random_num

Replace with:

Code:

index.php?gfx=gfx&random_num=$random_num

If you don't know to find the code, attach the whole block code to this forum so I can find it more closer.

Hey Madman, It is the block itself and the code switching brought up the security code but it doesn't work. I get sent to another login page stating Login was incorrect. Plus no matter how many times I refresh, the security code never changes. The log block is called block-Site_Info_Protector.

Can you send me this "block-Site_Info_Protector" file?
Email me to madman(at)gp4tweaker(dot)vadertrophy(dot)com along with attached block file. I'll modify the security code image to be more compatible with your PHP-Nuke 7.5.

Thanks Madman, it works. I knew that Protector B2 wasn't fully compatible in some ways with 7.5 and Mister at Protector website was busy with scripting of B3. So, I took a change that a brainiac here could help in the mean time. Thanks

Can you send fix to my mail box too????????????

installed 7.4 with patches
installed Approve Membership for phpNuke versions 6.0-7.5

The security code shows for admin but does not show for people who are not admin. Right now I can not add ANY one so there are NO members. Only one admin - thats me.

I looked but could not find the old code to change to new code in ... well now I don't remember what files I looked at. Just a bunch.

Please help. I have been strugglin for days with version 7.1 becuse I was hacked and ended having to delete the whole site and start from scratch. I went with 7.4 even though I paid $10 for 7.5 I was told 7.4 is more stable! Really?????
-- Note added later:
I found the code snippet you mentioned above in the block-Login.php file modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=gfx and I replaced it first with ?gfx=gfx and then with the second index.php?gfx=gfx

It does not work. No one can register. That defeats one of the main reasons I installed this script. I ran into this with 7.1 after I got hacked. and I found that if I set "Your_Account" module to view by registered only, I got this error of the missing security image. When I set it back to view by All users, the security image reaappeared. It is unfortunate that this simple work around doesn't work in this more stable 7.4 version.

Somebody please help!
Thanks

K I'm using 7.0 cause it was a pain as it is to set that up, so I'm not upgrading until I know a little bit more..

But I'm having the security code issue too..

It's only when I view the page as an anonymous user, but when I login to admin.php it shows up fine, and after I login as admin instead of member, I can see the security code in the login block as it should be on the main page..

Also, when I try and register a new account, it says that registration is only accessible by registered members.. Which makes no sense..

If you wanna check it out, http://www.screamingmaggots.com/nuke

Is there anyway to just take the damn security code out? This PHPNuke crap has given me enough headaches.. I just want to make the thing available to the public without any problems..

Thanx..

Try to PM or email Silent-G. A link to your site would be much better rather than talking the problem without being able to seeing the problem itself. Smile

Set Your_Account module to be accessed by all visitors. I can't help you more since I couldn't find PHP-Nuke copyright notices on your site.
