ok i have been running into some weird issues lately.

no when i make a new node in a old forum like node number id 1 or id 6

atm we are like at id 774 or something

so when i make a node in one of these old sections the node duplicates itself also
there is this:

http://portalcentric.net/forums/forums/site-announcements.9/

see how it duplicates forums

forums/forums

all other nodes the newer ones have just http://portalcentric.net/forums and then the category name/forum node

and these where when i make new sub nodes they duplicate in.

now i had this weird bug in an olde version of xenforo and back then still sorting out my htaccess rules and friendly names

but for some reason these old nodes have stuck with this bug..

re creating the section from scratch obviously fixes this issue but wish there was some easier quick way to fix it.


i have also had issues where users get errors editing some of there threads in such nodes a permission errors so i assume these nodes a corrupt in some way..

and now i am getting issues with some new nodes that are created for most users the thread appear fine but for some users as you can see in this image the bbcodes do not phrase at all for them in these new sections:

but it appears normal to other users...

so i am unsure what is going on. maybe my db needs so fixing... or something...

because this user has a lot of threads and i re creating the account and migrating all these threads will be a pain.

there has to be a way to fix all this...

all these random issues
 
Sort by date Sort by votes
and now for some reason i do not see bb codes phrasing in this new section for me:

on my account but it doesn't effect non super admins

shows fine for them

using PHP 5.4.30

for some reason all my forums have forums/forums issue

It shows as forums/forums because you have installed it in the /forums directory.

As this link (and others) demonstrate: http://portalcentric.net/forums/members/

Forums use the /forums route.

I didn't really understand the other issues but if it appears fine for other users but not you, then the problems are localised to you.
Click to expand...

so why does it show the 2nd forums route?

i just want it to be /forums not forums/forums

it has to be some kind of htacces mod rewrite rule doing this or option within xenforo

as for the issue the bbcodes are not phrasing for the super admins user group in certain forums/nodes not all of them jsut some of them. i have tested it on amny computers and my friend had tested them on his same issue..

and when i create new node it duplicates itself create 2 of them instead of one.

i had all the links once with just forums and when i created nodes it worked fine but now that all my nodes = forums/forums when i create a new node or sub node it creates 2 copies of its self.

and i want it back to the original /Forums link not doubling it up...

here is what i have in my htaccess file within the forums folder..

and where it say RewriteBase /forums

i noticed when i hashed that out all the nodes/forums did not work it said link no longer exists as it looks for the forums/forums path but i dont want it to be that i jsut want it to be /forums

and the RewriteBase /forums also fixes some other links like forums registration link and other little things..

there has to be a way to make the path change to just forums...

+ i have this set not sure if i need it or what it does...

well the thing it i always had the forums installed in the forums folder but before i moved servers the path was always /forums never was /froums/forums before and it was still installed in the forums folder so there was something on the old server the hid the forums folder name and kept the path simple.

but thats not a major issues the main issues is that when a new node is made now it duplicate's itself and some people like the super admins that are in the config file have issues seeing phrased bbcodes.. i seen this issue before and i had to re create all the nodes to fix it.. but doesn't explain why this happens in the 1st place..
