WARNING: This mod requires you have SSL working on your site. If you do not, enabling the functionality will BREAK login.

I'm guessing you enabled the functionality, not just installed.

Did you make sure SSL worked on your website, or did you just enable the mod without checking?

To disable, you'll need to manually edit the SMF settings table in the database. You can do this with phpMyAdmin. Once you have the right database selected, go to the SQL tab and run the following query. This assumes your table prefix is "smf".


UPDATE smf_settings SET value=FALSE where variable="use_secure_login";

Its not Working, It says this:

Error

SQL query:

UPDATE smf_settings SET value = FALSE WHERE variable = "use_secure_login"

MySQL said: Documentation
#1146 - Table 'b24_897878_smf.smf_settings' doesn't exist

What do i do now?

青山 素子

Maybe you have a different prefix? Adjust the query to use that.

Ya it would work if i can get into my PHP Admin now.

I have a table prefix its smf_

Is that what a prefix is?

Looks like it wiped all of your tables. (re: the other topic)

That mod doesn't affect the database when running (only uses the normal SMF function for adding a setting), and that query was tested against a test install before given (and worked okay). Can anyone confirm that this mod is responsible?

I did not touch my database at all, since I started. It had to have been.

Sfx23, i don't think this mod will modify your database in any way. Maybe something was messed up elsewhere?

青山 素子

I see the user posted in the topic for the User Control Panel mod. Perhaps it was some odd combo?

 Hi, I just updated to 1.1.4, and this doesnt want to install, Im not thinking too much has changed in between the two versions, can I just modify the package-info.xml to 1.1.4..is thats all that needed?

Sorry to bother, if it was a cosmetic mod, Id go for it without even asking.

For some reason this mod was extremely hard to find through google on my pc, yet I stumbled upon it with google/pda, only a shame I updated 10 minutes before I found it....well not really a shame..needed updated, Id just like to have checked it out tonight, without bothering you all.

青山 素子

It should work without changes on 1.1.4. I'll be trying to get an official update out sometime this weekend.
