FEU, logged out if submitting form

[Cognatus]

This is a retake of a problem I'va tried to ventilate in this forum earlier (http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/viewtopi ... =7&t=70571). I have started things over to simplify debugging.

----------------------------------------------

I use this template:

----------
You may see the page here:

http://www.dombok.se

You may use self registration to register as a user here:

http://dombok.se/index.php?page=registrera-konto

(In swedish but it's nothing but the usual self reg...)
----------

I have set four pages as Protected Content, will show in menu when logged in.

I have placed a very simple form in one of the protected pages via an UDT:

Code: Select all

echo'
<div Id="uploaddiv">
<form action="http://www.dombok.se/index.php?page=registrera-post" method="post" Id="upload">
<input type="hidden" name="upload" value="upload">
<table>
<tr>
<td width="100px">Datum</td><td><input name="Datum"type="text" ><br /></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td></td>
<td><input Id="sokid" type="submit" style="width:auto;"  value="Spara och lägg till en ny"><input Id="rensa"  name="Rensa" type="button" style="width:auto; margin-left:10px;" onClick="location.href=\'http://www.dombok.se/index.php?page=registrera-post\' "value="Rensa" /><br /></td>
</table>
</form>
</div>
';

----------


Problems

1. If I try to submit this form I get kicked out of the session now and then, independent of what browser I use.

One way that I regularly can reproduce this is if I login from FF (usually I can submit the form, but not always) then logout, open Chrome and login and try to submit the form, kicked out.

2. How do I set up FEU to remember that I'm logged in even if I close the browser? If I login now, close the browser and open it again I can't access the protected pages.


As you may underastand this is not my comfort zone but I try to read all available instructions, but it's easy to overlook things.

2. Users & Groups -> Frontend User Management -> Settings (at the top) -> Allow users to login more than once: [tick]

You will also see Session Timeout (seconds) on the same page.

If I tick "Allow users to login more than once" I can login again sending credentials once more, but I'm not automaticly logged in when I reopen the page (as for instance in this forum). Is that feature not supported in FEU?

[paulbaker]

Just tried logging in, closing browser and reopening on the same page - I stayed logged in. This was an instance of FEU on a live site. I ticked "Remember me on this computer" when I logged in (a tick box that was in the standard templates if I remember correctly).

[Cognatus]

I have tried ticking the box, makes no difference, I'm not logged in when I reopen the browser and the page again. What can I do to check whether all necessary cookies are available?

[Cognatus]

I have now spent some time to test FEU logging in and out, switching browsers, ticking boxes, you name it to see if I can get things to work. No luck. But a couple of questions has arisen...


A. In the FEU settings I set the "Use cookies to keep logins alive" to Yes, save, switch to another module, go back to the FEU and verify that the change is done. If I then tick the box "Allow users to login more than once" the previous setting resets to No. Is that the correct behavior?

B. I have never been able to tick the "Remember me on this computer" in the login dialogue and find it there again when opening the same page.

C. If I have set FEU to not allow users to login more than once, login, close the window, open it and try to login again, I get the information that the user is already logged in. Additionally I see some faulty code (/>) next to the checkbox for "Remember me on this computer". See picture. Is it possible that the Swedish language settings is messing things up?

I just tested this (as it seems like it could potentially be a simple error in the code)... but I could not reproduce it. The input field is a dropdown with 2 elements (yes, no). and works properly here.

B. I have never been able to tick the "Remember me on this computer" in the login dialogue and find it there again when opening the same page.

This could be due to an HTML error in the form. In the past the sample forms had some errors in them. Or maybe your code above or below the call to FEU is invalid or causing errors. You should:
1. Make sure your HTML validates
2. Look for javascript errors.

C. If I have set FEU to not allow users to login more than once, login, close the window, open it and try to login again, I get the information that the user is already logged in.

This is correct behaviour.

See above. Check for validation and and javascript errors.

[Cognatus]

It's obviously something wrong here (at the swe translation of "Remember me on this computer row"):

How do I fix that?

[magallo]

Could it be an overlooked "/> in the login template inside FEU ?

[paulbaker]

Is it possible that the Swedish language settings is messing things up?

I guess so, perhaps a stray " in a language file? You could test that by temporarily changing the language to English.

[Cognatus]

Changing language didn't make any difference.

It looks like this in the Login Template:

Code: Select all

  {if isset($prompt_rememberme)}
  <div class="row">
    <p class="col-md-4"></p>
    <p class="col-md-8">
      <label><input type="checkbox" name="{$actionid}feu_rememberme" value="1" {if $rememberme==1}checked/>{/if}/> {$prompt_rememberme}</label>
    </p>
  </div>
  {/if}

The "checked" part is looking strange...

[Cognatus]

A control question...

In the FEU settings there are two tabs, the last one named Builtin Authentication has a blue field with following info The following settings are only applicable if using the "Builtin Authentication".

When looking at the preference tab I only have FEU Standard Authentication in "Authentication Module/Method:", is that synonymous with "Builtin Authentication"?

[paulbaker]

Change checked/> to just checked

[Cognatus]

This could be due to an HTML error in the form. In the past the sample forms had some errors in them. Or maybe your code above or below the call to FEU is invalid or causing errors. You should:
1. Make sure your HTML validates
2. Look for javascript errors.

http://dombok.se/index.php?page=inloggning

This is what I get when validating at W3.org:

Line 5, Column 52: Bad value for attribute dir on element html.

Code: Select all

<!--[if (gte IE 9)|!(IE)]><!--><__html lang='' dir=''><!--<![endif]-->

I guess that error is not involved in my troubles...

Debugging javascript is nothing that I'm capable of.

[Cognatus]

I captured my screen while fiddling around in the seetings of FEU. As I mentioned before, if I change the settings for the cookie to Yes and save, then switch to the other tab and save, the Cookies setting is reset to No??
