Full Version: Password Error

Detailed description of your problem, including steps to reproduce if necessary: Well, I installed the Plugin Uploader modification before( http://mattrogowski.co.uk/mybb/plugins/p...n-uploader ), and it seems to not work now. I had to delete my forums last time due to issues, but I have reinstalled several times and tried adding the Plugin Uploader mod again, but everytime it turns out successful. EXCEPT, I cannot use the password function. It makes you set a password for security reasons, once I do it says its successful and such, I'll go and try to upload a mod, and it says "The password you have entered is incorrect. Please try again.". Although I am POSITIVE it is right, double checked multiple times. Not sure whats wrong, may be because before I had myBB installed at ww.eclipseart.net and not www.eclipseart.net/forums. I wouldn't think a different directory would matter though, would it?

Maybe try going into the mybb_pluginuploader table. Delete the field with _password in one of the columns. This will force a reset in the ACP, which may help.

We'll see if anyone knows more about this, but I really only have general troubleshooting for this problem...

It let me reselect my password. It still says it's incorrect though. I used a simple password "lol". Yet it still didn't work. Not sure what it wrong, need a MyBB expert to help me. Toungue

THANKYOU... I knew it wasn't anything very big, I just successfully uploaded a plugin, so it was just my cookies. THANKYOU. Marked as BEST answer. Wink
