RedZone Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 If you look at the image below there is a double link? Atleast thats what you can call it. I logged in and went threw the redirect page and then url showed. (http://forums.invisionpower.com/index.php?http://forums.invisionpower.com/)Is this a bug or just a normal working setup that IPB has setup?

Lewis P Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Don't know what to suggest. Doesnt happen for me. Have you cleared your cache etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZone Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Yup! I'm using the latest version of Mozilla Firefox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Working4computers Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 I've experienced this before; though I've never reported it. Maybe something related to cookies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZone Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Or maybe something with the redirect and the cookies together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Ryan Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 No its maybe a cookie issue or a bug issue, because it happens to me too. I just never really thought of posting, and I am using firefox, and thats the exact same URL I get sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZone Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 So good. I'm not the only one with this problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon C Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 I have seen this before, but the only time I've ever seen this was when I first logged into the forums and after it redirected me to the board index. It doesn't happen that often anymore, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Garcia Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 I believe I remember this since the good old IPB 1.3 times. I don't believe its a bug though, just something I can not explain ^_^ . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam A Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 It's to do with the way IPB uses the referring URL when you login, could be a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 It doesn't cause any detrimental effect - not sure why it would need to be categorized as a bug.IPB tries to capture the url to send you to when you go to login. In one or two cases it captures the full url to the board, and puts that in the URL. It doesn't hurt anything though. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolakTom101 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 This also happens on other websites like I noticed on Web Hosting Talk twice so it is in vB too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfarber Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Well, we could spend our time trying to remove that from the login url, or spend our time fixing REAL bugs and adding the new features people want to see in the product. You tell me which is more worthwhile. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
