Are you using bridge 2.0.2 or 2.0.2.1? The latter should resolve the issue.

Organic -

Did you try Stef's solution? I went down that road instead of making the php changes ... and it's seems to have addressed the issue. I tested JSMF 2.0.2.1 on my test server and it didn't have any issues either way ...

This problem does seem to be very quirky as has been noted here:

http://www.joomlahacks.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,94/topic,4589.msg20291#msg20291

Having said that, the solution posted by Stef does work with some revision in my case.

I found that topics with 12, 9, and 8 posts showed a blank page for admin and some users (once logged in) - when I reset the # of topics per page to 10, it helped but didn't resolve the issue. I had to set it to 8 - but now everything seems to work.

Very strange stuff indeed.

Anyone have any ideas why? And if there is a code hack to make this work?

Allan

Yes, Super, I realize there is no dev support ... and I know you've repeatedly posted this ...

I am being optimistic that someone with some user input (like I've tried to provide) might be able to make this work ... at least until there is another reasonable option out there (and no, Fireboard is not an option).

So now I am really confused ...

Tried to replicate this issue on my WAMP server ...
J.1.0.14
JSMF 2.0.2.1
CB 1.1
SMF 1.1.4

... with PHP 5.2.5.

No difficulties with the "admin" account!

Anyone?

Similar problem here ...

J.1.0.15
JSMF 2.0.2.1
SMF 1.1.4
CB 1.1

and PHP 5.2.5

This is happening intermittently to both registered users and admin. I have some registered users that can view all posts of all topics (as normal) ... I have some registered users that can't view posts in certain (unspecific) topics ... and admin is the same. It seems very unspecific and inconsistent to me.

Will the fix posted above address this?

Thanks!

Allan

Thanks for the input (and summary) locutus!!

Now can anyone confirm this using CB 1.1?

Allan

So now I have read two completely different answers to the same problem ...

Could someone please summarize or confirm?

If you are using J1.0.15, CB 1.1, SMF 1.1.4 and JSMF 2.0.2.1, then the password/login problem is resolved? Or not? From the majority of posts, I am thinking YES ... but can someone please confirm?

Should I do a CB synch of users?

Order of upgrade:
- unpatch JSMF 2.0.2
- upgrade to J1.0.15
- patch JSMF 2.0.2
- add patch to upgrade JSMF to 2.0.2.1?

Thanks!

Perhaps the first question is - is this an issue with the bridge, the template, or SMF? Having thought that it might be the bridge (though certainly having a great degree of uncertainty!) I posted it here.

So ... do we know this is an SMF issue? 

Allan

I have recently installed the latest JSMF bridge (RC3_1) (using with Joomla 1.0.11)and have not had any difficulty while using the default SMF theme. Great piece of work and very straightforward install!

I installed a new SMF theme (orange-lt) to better integrate with my current site template (wrapped). When I go to the forum, it operates normally - but is now shifted far to the right - so that the left edge of the forum display starts at the end of the far right edge of the top/horizontal menus. I can login normally, but the whole forum is shifted to the right ...

I turned on debugging in the JSMF bridge, and this is a sample of what I got ...

Error loading buffer cache
Error loading headers cache
Error loading keywords cache
Error loading css cache

All other items are marked "found and replaced".

All of this is on a local test site.

Is this an issue with the template? SMF theme? Bridge? Lousy luck? 

Thanks for any help you might have ...
