Hi,

When someone tries to register on my site the registration using highslide no longer works! After details are added it just goes to the front/home page.

http://www.sffmedia.com

I don’t get the usual activation message and the users details do not appear in the Administration section. I can add a user through the back end though manually though.

Has anyone come across this before?! Help much appreciated!! :((

Thanks!

John

Here’s the problem…

Your ACTION in the form is directed incorrectly.

You have:
<form class=”form-validate” name=”josForm” id=”josForm” method=”post” action=”/component/user/”>

You should have:

<form class=”form-validate” name=”josForm” id=”josForm” method=”post” action=”index.php?option=com_user“>

To correct – find the following file and make sure THE AREAS IN RED read as the do below:

COMPONENTS > VIEWS > REGISTER > TMPL > default.php

Around line 17 you’ll find the line:

<form action=”<?php echo JRoute::_( ‘index.php?option=com_user’ ); ?>” method=”post” id=”josForm” name=”josForm” class=”form-validate”>

Let me know how it goes.

If you can do a search and replace for the entire ADMINISTRATOR and COMPONENT folders you might want to search for “josForm” to flush out any other areas where the above code has been disrupted…as there are several parts to this form (password reminders, user name reminders, user name resets, etc.)

Good Luck.
John.

Thanks for the fast response jbrett,

Unfortunately though, I checked the file you pointed to and the highlighted red text in line 17 looks exactly like you’ve posted here:

<form action=”<?php echo JRoute::_( ‘index.php?option=com_user’ ); ?>” method=”post” id=”josForm” name=”josForm” class=”form-validate”>

It’s a strange one as I can’t think of anything I did to cause it to stop working. :confused:

Not sure if this will help, but here’s the code for the entire file.

Your assistance is much appreciated,

Cheers

John

Thanks hainn84,

Working great now. I really appreciate the extra effort you went too. 😀

The only thing that’s not working exactly right is that when you register using Firefox 3, the “Thank you for registering, we’ve sent you an activation link,” etc. message doesn’t display, but I’m not to worried about that as they still get an activation email and turn up in the CMS.

Cheers!

John
