Hi

I read that support for myb 1.6 series has ended but I am really in need.

3 days back, I had an issue logging in to admin cp.

i was stuck in login loop.

searched here, then deleted cookies of my browser, chmod permissions check for settings.php

even deleted settings.php and clicked around so that it gets regenerated.

frustrated with no results, I did home dir backup with mysql db backup.

i then did a fresh install of mybb , restored db, and then too was not able to login to admin cp

nothing that can come to my rescue.

as last resort, I changed hosts, yes, i changed hosts.

even the new hosts could not fix it and I am coming here as a last resort.

the cookie settings in settings.php are fine, as has been instructed by mybb staff and checked by me so many times.

I am not able to login to admin cp and I really dont know what to do now.


i decided to stick to mybb 1.6 series because I use gomobile plugin and google seo and was not sure that these plugins will work with mybb 1.8.



kindly assist me, I really dont know what to do.

i can provide ftp and login details to mybb staff via pm.

I did everything I could and even after that my issue stands unresolved.

kindly help.

Some one please help
I can confirm that GoMobile plugin and Google SEO plugin works on 1.8 version because we have happy clients using both.

Can you expand on your "login loop" perhaps with a video or something?

hi, thanks for your answer.

I have pmed one of the members of mybb staff and he agreed to take a look at it.

happy to be a part of community that listens to the people who use it Smile

They had this in the .htaccess file:

RewriteRule ^(.*)index.php$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]

This was to remove "index.php" from the URL. However this also redirected the admin, which broke the form.

I have changed this line to:

RewriteRule ^index.php$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]

And it now works Smile
