MyBB Community Forums

I have two boards, one running version 1.4x and one running 1.2x.

The earlier version is accessed by members of the older OSDate, through the main site. The 1.4 version is direct login to the forums, NOT through OSDate or any other script.

The problem I'm having ONLY happens with Admin, not users, and it happens with BOTH versions.

Every time I login as Admin to the ACP of either of the forums, it creates a NEW Admin user. Within a weeks time, I end up with 10-20 Admin user accounts, and have to manually delete these (unfortunately 1 by 1 in v.1.2).

Only ONE account, however, shows the date of access (always current at that time I've logged in) - and all the rest of the Admin accounts show I've NEVER logged in.

How can I prevent the Admin account being duplicated over and over each time I login?

Thanks!

How do you mean it creates a "new admin user" - There's no way, unless modified by you, that a new user with admin permissions is actually created when you login to the ACP.

Hi, when I log into the Admin panel, I see the # of users, right? Well, when I look at the list of new users, it shows multiple instances of admin

Each instance shows me the Reg date - but the Last Login is Never.

I can delete these extra admins all I want - but every login I make as Admin makes them come back.

I've attached a screenshot of the user list so you can see.

Thanks.

You're not even using 1.4 from the look of that screenshot.

Please RE-read the first posting.
Thanks.

My bad

How exactly does OSDate link with your site?? That is the only thing that could logically be causing this.

OSDate provides the interface to login FROM within the osdate site itself after being logged into it. So the user session gets transferred over to the MyBB forums, without having a double login.

The OSDate sites are using the older version of MyBB.

The 1.4 version I have running separately as a stand-alone forum. It has the same problem happening.

Where do users register, on the forum or on OSDate?

They register in the main (osdate) site. Clicking a link within the site takes them directly into the forum.

Really no different than integrating any other kind of membership site with a forum.

And it's not necessary for me to say this, but I feel the need to, so people won't think "aw, it's just a dating site, not really important"...

My websites are all support groups for a certain people in the community, and on an international level, with members all over the world. And it has nothing to do with dating. I just happen to be using the Osdate script (which has been highly modified for the purpose it's serving now).

So you have some sort of modification/plugin to copy the user's registration from OSDate to MyBB?
