No one could log in – and then it healed itself

Fri, 17 Jul 2026 16:37:30 +0000

Hi,

For at least 30 minutes today, I couldn’t log in to the admin portal of my forum. When I did, it would just redisplay the login dialog – no error, just not logged in either.

So I tried logging into the main forum from several browsers on 2 computers and those attempts failed too. Once a user entered a name and password, the screen refreshed and they went back to where/how they were.

Even if a non-existent name was entered, I wouldn’t get the usual error message about an invalid user name – just bounced back to the forum page I was at previously.

I saw no entries in the server error log anywhere near the times I have tried to login.

The last change to config.php was 11 days ago and the only change is the $config['database']['hostname'] was updated.

Settings.php hasn’t been changed in over 6 weeks, and the relevant settings for cookies in settings.php looked OK. When logging in and watching the network response, I saw appropriate setcookies for mybb[lastvisit] and mybb[lastactive] but no user cookie. Of course, I realized that I had done this with a non-existent user, so no user cookie would be expected, so I switched to using an existing user to capture that and… just as mysteriously as it stopped working, it started working again. And then I went back to the admin portal and it was back to working as well. No files were edited to get it working again.

Any thoughts about whatever that could have been?

Dave

Hm, wondering...

What's going on with MyBB? Never realized there hasn't been a "General Chat" or "General Discussion Chat" for MyBB on here...yet...Maybe...I could change that with this thread.

PostPusher

Mon, 13 Jul 2026 16:31:47 +0000

PostPusher

PostPusher lets you rearrange posts within a thread without editing the database or relying on dateline tricks. Simply choose an existing post, write your new content, and insert it exactly where you want—before another post, after it, or by swapping positions. It's designed for moderators and administrators who need complete control over post order.

The plugin integrates directly into the showthread page by adding a "Push Post" button that opens a clean slide-out panel. From there, you can quickly find any post by its position number, subject, username, or message content. Advance Mode lets you swap your new post with an existing one, moving the original post to the end of the thread while placing the new content in its position. Permissions can be configured per usergroup and forum, giving you full control over who can use the feature.

Behind the scenes, PostPusher integrates seamlessly with MyBB. It includes CSRF protection, automatically updates thread statistics and reply counts, logs every action for moderation purposes, and performs all operations through AJAX without reloading the page. Templates are stored as files for easy customization, and all plugin settings are managed through the ACP. Whether you're reorganizing a discussion or presenting information in a specific order, PostPusher makes the process quick, safe, and intuitive.

Unable to use TK Thread Author

Sat, 11 Jul 2026 16:30:15 +0000

I installed TK Thread author and as soon as I did I started getting the error when opening the ACP page:

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Failed opening required 'mybb/admin/inc/class_page.php' (include_path='\php\PEAR') in \mybb\admin\index.php:36 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in \mybb\admin\index.php on line 36

I didn't get a chance to login, I hadn't even activated the plugin, and I couldn't figure out how to fix it or even revert. I tried replacing the inc folder which messed up my server config file so I had to start over. What went wrong with that plugin? The instructions say to add a variable to the file postbit/postbit_classic template but I couldn't find the file. It says to only do that if I have a custom theme installed which I don't.

Op can close thread plugin

Sat, 11 Jul 2026 16:15:22 +0000

I installed the op can close thread plugin and it works but I found out that the op can reopen the thread even if I disable that option by simply replying. Is that normal or is something wrong? I have the latest version of mybb and the plugin.
