The site address is https://www.mesalia.net/forum/index.php
The MyBB version is 1.8.16.
The theme is a 1.8 one.
My site is very broken and I struggle to find where the issue(s) lie. There might be multiple, they may be related. I will try to go through every error I've found step by step as well as tell you everything I've tried to fix this so far.
I started looking into this when the page wouldn't load at all at first.
Chrome...
- Throws an HTTP ERROR 341 upon attempting to post anything, thread or post.
- Used to throw an HTTP ERROR 341 upon clicking any of the subforum links. For some reason this stopped, for now, I don't know why.
- Can't handle editing posts. In order to edit a post 2 times, you need to hit refresh or the editor will show the un-edited post. I'm using the default editor cause any of the other ones I tried from Extend worked 10 times worse.
- Doesn't post in the DVZ shoutbox. This *might* be plugin-specific, can be skipped in that case and I'll bring it up with the plugin author.
- Jumps the login popup to the bottom of the screen, then maybe shows it and maybe doesn't (it varies) then freezes at the bottom of the page.
- Has issues with deactivating and uninstalling plugins in the control panel, I had to attempt it multiple times after it either did nothing or threw me out of the panel for invalid admin session at every single attempt *sweats*.
- Doesn't allow the user to log in and throws either the HTTP ERROR 341 or an authorization error.
- Jumps the login popup to the bottom of the page.
- Throws an error popup complaining on not using the function correctly when trying to log out. Does log out though.
- A user recently expressed issues adding images/pictures to a thread/post.
- Contacting the host. No errors on their side at all, everything working as normal.
- Removed the header image that was admittedly way too large and re-sized in CSS, I hadn't gotten to adjusting the image yet. I thought it was the issue given the HTTP ERROR 341 thrown upon trying to load the page after a refresh or clicking anything on it. Might it have been part of the issue?
- Restarted my computer, yes yes I did try that. You never know right?
- Re-installing Chrome.
- Uninstalling Avast.
- Disabling all Chrome extensions.
- Flushed my DNS.
- Erased the whole internet history, cache, etc, just to be sure.
- Asked my users, confirming the issue lies not just with my computer.
- Uninstalled all site-plugins.
- Updated all outdated plugins to their latest versions.
- Messed about with browser security stuff, no results or changes after allowing the site everything.
- Checked the "find edited templates", couldn't find anything that looked inherently or obviously fishy. But I'm not an expert, I'll admit.
I personally fear the theme is broken after the few latest updates. Though some of the issues don't seem to fit that theory? Maybe it's the JS? Cookie handling? Either way... I need help. And I will really appreciate any given. Thanks in advance.
