When I click "login" the login box pops up but it says "error" and nothing else.

But when I click on Register and then go and try and click login again it works.

What causes this?

My forum is FreelancerForums.net [nofollow]

Diego Andrés

It's caused by the URL, make sure you keep it consistent.
Your actual URL is https://freelancerforums.net/index.php, but the link you provided is without it.

You could add rules to your htaccess file to force the same url across your domain.

Is there a way to remove the "index.php" in the URL?

Or what would I add to the file to do what you suggested?

Diego Andrés

No sorry I didn't mean that.
I meant the https, sorry for the confusion.

When using http, it's going to give you issues because the forum is set to use ssl.

Oh okay, so I can get with my host about forcing https on the domain?

Diego Andrés

Probably, but you can add a rule to your htacess file.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

I copied it from a Google search, I'm on the phone now but looks about right.

As for removing index.php

Don't

It will cause more issues than the worth of the edit

This is how I did mine, similar to that...

Quote# Always use https for secure connections
# Replace 'www.example.com' with your domain name
# (as it appears on your ssl certificate)
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]

I tried it and it didn't work.

You cannot view this attachment.

Quote. I installed the mod and encountered a problem.

If you enter like www.websitename . com Ex. www.siambot . com
I can't log in

But if I type a name without www. followed by the website name Ex. siambot . com
I can log in.

Where do I need to change the code to allow logging in both ways in Ex. www.siambot . com and siambot . com? 

I edited in setting.php error 403 disappeared but buttom log in it error
