Fixed Registration Error Msgs on New Page

[Mr_Bob]

I just noticed this on my own board and tested it on xenforo.com. When errors are encountered during the registration process, the registration form does not reload and rather the user is directed to a new page without the registration form. Maybe this is as designed? But, it seems out of the ordinary, so just in case...

To reproduce: (XF 1.1.4)

• Use an illegal username (like admin)
• Do not fill out any other field, except for the verification question and terms agreement.
• Click Register

are you using the latest XF-version ?

The registration-form is actually reloading fine on XF-version 1.1.1

 

[Mr_Bob]

Yes, this is with XF 1.1.4. I edited my first post to clarify this.

Somehow I managed to wipe this line out...

In library/XenForo/ControllerPublic/Register.php, find:

if ($errors)

Add this above it:

$errors = array_merge($errors, $writer->getErrors());

Have you added this to the existing zip file, or should we go ahead and make the change pending the next release?

 

[Mike]

Make the change. Package updates are very rare and are really only done immediately after a release.

Gotcha. Under de hood I go.
