New user activating email and link
Posted: Thu Mar 31, 2016 1:03 pm
Hello All!
I have had two separate requests today from people not able to verify the activation link in the activation request email.
Theys email system seems to rewrite the url from :
/index.php?action=activate;u=123456;code=1d2kjfhh8h5hf459ferfhaf4
into:
/index.php?action=activate%3bu=123456%3bcode=1d2kjfhh8h5hf459ferfhaf4
You see the ';' are changed into '%3b'. This urlencoding are a legal action, but not commonly used from email programs - before now C:-)
So - I have changed the coding used by the site to handle this, but have not time ignaff for proper testing of all variants of this.
Be warned of possible other issues - and report back to me if you do find odd things happening
BTW: A new module is now implemented to try to fix the problem with images not showing in correct direction. (up/down et
Will only work on new images uploaded, not the old ones !!
