I followed the link and edited my theme template as instructed but the issue still persist. Should I change my theme?

I tried changing the theme to the default but it still displays "Authorization code mismatch. Are you accessing this function correctly? Please go back and try again."

If you can wait a few hours until I get home, send me some temp credentials (I will need admin to edit templates) and I will take a look.

Thanks to everyone that has contributed to help fix the issue. The problem has been cleared. I download a new theme made for 1.8.19 and uploaded it. Wola!... Problem is gone.
