Hi, thanks for that, but I could not see the fix to repair the CTracker error I get when I want to do a mass PM or email.

Can you point me to the right solution?

Thanks

in the first post there is a Knowlege base link that explains how to fix the CTracker blocks

A few members have reported that the fix for mass email does not work, however I have applied it to 9 boards and it works fine for me

Code: Select all

##-----[ OPEN ]------------------------------------------#/forum/admin/admin_email_users.php  ##-----[ FIND ]------------------------------------------#define('IN_PHPBB', 1);  ##-----[ AFTER, ADD ]------------------------------------------#define('CT_SECLEVEL', 'LOW');$ct_ignorepvar = array('send');  ##-----[ SAVE/CLOSE ALL FILES ]------------------------------------------## EoM

*note CTracker always suggests ('CT_SECLEVEL', 'MEDIUM'); Sometimes MEDIUM does not work, so replace with ('CT_SECLEVEL', 'LOW');

I'm one of those users...on my board this fix won't work. But, I have to say that I don't get the "usual" pink box from CT. When I try to add a user to the list of people to send an email to, it says "Hacking attempt!" So, is this really a CT error?

I searched all files of my forum and about 20 or so contains this message "Hacking attempt!" I don't know what's going wrong, but I know it's rather anoying <img>. I would really appreciate if someone could look into this further, because I don't know why the forum gives me this message when I just try to add a user to the email-list.

Thanks!
Ezra

Hacking attempt is not a CT message, it is a php warning and often is the result of incorrect cookie settings. When your cookie settings are wrong, it causes you to access files either differently, or in a logged out manner. I do not know how to describe this better, but you should use the cookieMOD from the download section, then delete your browser cache. You could also try changing your email settings in acp/general admin/configuration. If your using php mail, try using smtp.

Thank you for your support Helter.

It worked a treat.

Aarghh! This is driving me crazy. I used the cookieMOD, cleared my browser cache...still the same message "Hacking Attempt". So, I tried to switch the email settings to smpt and back to php....same result. I really don't know what's wrong here, I just know I don't like it <img>

If you have another idea of what it may be, please let me know... I just don't know why it's not working here. I have a standard IM141, no mods added or anything.

Thanks anyway for your help HS! I hope you can come up with another solution for this.

I seem to be having the same problem too. I installed the cookieMOD but still get a message saying Hacking Attempt.
