Topic: Main site bug reporting

I see this* with Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.13) Gecko/20061201 Firefox/2.0.0.13 (Ubuntu-feisty).

*This being overlapping text on the homepage in the "recent tutorials" section.

Possibly you have a minimum font size set?

[Daniel0]

Or perhaps you don't have the font that is used. It's using Arial, I can't remember if that ships with Ubuntu.

It doesn't. You have to install a package called microsoft base fonts or something.

If I go to the main phpfreaks.com page, login, navigate to the forums, and then click the header image link to navigate back to the main phpfreaks.com page, the page doesn't seem to know that I am logged in. It says "username" and shows "*****" in the un/pw fields. It shows my username in the forums if I go back to the forums again. Just when I go to the main site home page, it can't tell. I thought I remembered someone saying that they were using a single login system now, so to me that seems out of wrong/bad/something.

Hope that makes sense.

That's strange. Does anyone else have that problem? It works for me.

[448191]

Exact same here.

It does the same for me. When I click on the image link at the top it shows me as logged off.  I'm using FF3 also.  Yes, cookies are enabled, etc.. my bookmark is  /forums/index.php and I'm always already logged in.

[Daniel0]

That's strange. I haven't been able to reproduce the problem. I tried to remove the session id regeneration at each request. Let me know if that fixed it

Edit: Nevermind. That broke logins entirely. I'll try to figure out a solution to this.

[Daniel0]

I made some other changes instead and I disabled the cron job that is clearing old sessions. I hope that resolves it.

[Crayon Violent]

Nope, still doesn't work. 

I logged out of everything, cleared all my cookies.  If I log in from main site and then go to forums, I am not logged in on forums. 

Logged out of everything, cleared all my cookies. If I log in from forum and then go to main site, I am not logged in at main site. 

[Daniel0]

Oh, well I never meant it to do that. I thought the issue was that your main site session unexpectedly expired.

[Crayon Violent]

Oh.  Just seemed that when everybody was talking about login integration, that if I logged into one, it would automatically log me into the other.  I mean, it makes sense to me to do that...did you have some reason why it's not like that, or is that on some to-do list?

[Daniel0]

No particular reason. I just didn't think it mattered that much. I suppose it could come on a todo list.

[charlieholder]

Sorry to have caused unneeded work and stress. Crayon's thoughts are exactly the same as mine. I will dismiss my bug and recast it as a proposed feature!

Just noticed that News section (aggregated from php.net and other sites) has not been updating for like... half a year...
