viewonline.php linked url

Worker Joined: Aug 06, 2004 Posts: 192

If you goto viewonline.php and a user is viewing a forum you will see the forum name. The url is wrong however. For example:

modules. php? name=Forums&file=modules&name=Forums&file=viewforum&f=50

Notice the extra file=modules&name=Forums&.

This is because append_sid is applied twice to the location in viewonline.php

Code:

$location_url = append_sid("viewforum.$phpEx?" . POST_FORUM_URL . '=' . $row['session_page']);

and

Code:

'U_FORUM_LOCATION' => append_sid($location_url))

To fix this change:

Code:

'U_FORUM_LOCATION' => append_sid($location_url))

to

Code:

'U_FORUM_LOCATION' => $location_url)

I have checked many of the big nuke site and the bbtonuke 2.0.10 port and they all have this error in it. Check you viewonline.php file:

If you have these two lines of code you have the error. It will only show when somebody is view a forum and the name of that forum is displayed on the Who's Online Page.

Code:

$location_url = append_sid("viewforum.$phpEx?" . POST_FORUM_URL . '=' . $row['session_page']);

Code:

'U_FORUM_LOCATION' => append_sid($location_url))

You can also see that Chatserv has fixed it in the last CVS on bbtonuke.
