New user creation problem with converting older theme

New Member Joined: Jan 19, 2009 Posts: 13

Hi All,

I am in process of moving rebuilding a website using the older Kalgash Dreams theme to RavenNuke_v2.30.02 (was getting hacked too much).

As per advice here DBI layer conversion changes made in theme.php as well as a few other tweaks - all good there.

The included RavenNuke themes work fine, however our previous site has a lot of graphics and content built to match the Dreams theme so I would like to use that.

Everything is looking good so far... except for New User Registration. The registration form displays and performs the data validation. The problem is that "Continue" button does nothing when clicked - I can see the module.php?name=Your_Account on mouseover in IE lower border. I have turned on SQL logging ($loglevel = 1) and there is nothing there at all.

Any advice on where I should be looking for the issue (fyi -I am not too familiar with php or Nuke)?

I got the Dreams theme from here

Try turning on error reporting in the config.php file as well.

Thanks for the quick reply jakec. I do have the error display set to true (and it has been invaluable getting through a number of issues so far).

There is no indication that anything is wrong when I try to submit the new registraiton form... simply nothing actually happens. Cheers.

Can you try clearing your browsers cache and then try again.

Also have you tried a different browser?

Yep, gave that a try. Also tried to register from 2 other PCs with both IE and Firefox on the same LAN. I am running the site installed locally on a Vista PC. I won't publish it until all the bugs are ironed out.

The (non) behaviour is consistent.

It might be a javascript collision. I have heard of this before in the forums, but I cannot recall the fix and unfortunately I have run out of time and need to leave for work...

OK. I have found another problem - it may be related? The "Edit Users" icon in the admin panel Module section is missing. The image file is definately in place and this also works with other themes.

The actual Edit Users function seems to work normally.

OK, I think I have found the issue. There was a javascript file that was called from the theme.php. Something to do with fading links after mouseover.

I have deleted the relevant entry from the theme.php and everything appears to be working. Thanks Montego.
