Problem with change settings in Front End User after upgrade

[Gillian.Hesse]

Hi there,

I just upgraded to CMSMS 1.2.4 today, and Front End User was automatically upgraded to version 1.4.2.  I was using 1.3.1 previously.

I am having a strange problems with the "Change Settings" option.  With my old change settings template every label and control is now nested within a link that points back to the change settings page.  As a result I can not change any of the text box values as clicking within them just sends me back to the page afresh! 

The html code produced for a control looks something like

Code: Select all

<a title="Click here to adjust your password or other information" href="http://www.fexchange.net/index.php?mact=FrontEndUsers,cntnt01,default,0&cntnt01form=changesettings&cntnt01returnid=85">
<input id="cntnt01feu_input_place" class="place" type="text" maxlength="255" size="30" value="Nijmegen" name="cntnt01feu_input_place"/>
</a>

My first thought was that it was something in my template, but I couldn't find anything. So I replaced my template with the default.  At first this looked promising as I could actually edit the text input boxes, but when I looked closer there were still loads of these "Click here to adjust your password or other information" links, just not within the table that the controls are placed.

I have no idea where the links are being generated.  I have used print_r to look at the controls, but found nothing.  I did note that this is the same link that is used in the change settings options in the login/logout area.

I tried to revert back to a previous version of FrontEndUsers but the modules list (in the extension menu) does not provide an unistal option for FrontEndUsers. 

Any ideas how to fix to link problem, or revert back to an older version?

Thanks

Hi there,

Just an update.  I have removed the current version of Front End Users (1.4.2) and reinstalled previous versions starting with the one I know works (1.3.1), using the default Change Settings template.  The change settings works as expected (i.e. no unexpected links in the generated html) for 1.3.1, 1.3.3 and 1.4.  It is just with 1.4.2 that these funny links are added.  It is easy to spot because the title at the top of the change settings page should just appear as "Settings" in plain text, but in 1.4.2 it appears as a link.

I think this must be a bug, but I'm surprised that no one has posted anything about it on here - or maybe I've just missed the posts some how.
