Error when clicking login button

[michaelcrook]

When people try to sign up to my forums, they get "error" when they click on the log in button.  I've looked all over this site and via Google to see how this can be resolved.

It doesn't appear to be a redirect issue: htxxp://michaelcrook.org/bbs [nonactive]

Any help would be appreciated...I've exhausted all other options at this point...no one can log in so I hope I can fix this.  But they can sign up??? 

Thanks.

Topic title changed to reflect subject of topic. Please try to do this in the future. ~ Steve

Because they're likely using https://www.web.com instead of the URL you setup for the forum which is without the www

Okay, how do I fix that?  I'm looking for a config page where I can fix the title, url, etc.  I really like SMF and I want to keep it, so hopefully this can be resolved.  Thanks in advance for the help.

You can add a redirect in your cPanel.
Or add a rule to your htaccess file:

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

Code Select Expand

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


Other option:

Code Select Expand

# 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]

You can change the title of the forum at Admin -> Maintenance -> Server Settings -> General
You will need to use repair_settings.php (available from the Tools section of the downloads page) to fix the URL. See https://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/Repair_settings.php for more information on that.
