Adming login refreshing

[John Diver]

Hey, I have a test server on my windows laptop and just put it on today to do edits offline - Problem is once I logged out of the admincp I cant get back in - It just keeps reloading the login page. The forum is fine. Anyone know whats wrong? Thanks

Are you running Cloudflare? If so you'll need to get them to exclude the admincp.

Hey Mark, I just have it running like a normal install through XAMPP Thanks

[John Diver]

As a side note, I get this when posting a message here:

/create-content/text in url and
{"nodeId":4357387} in the main window without going to the message

[John Diver]

Can anyone help with this please?

Thanks

With which question ?

[John Diver]

Just the one question, admincp isnt logging in.

The other post was about this site giving the {"nodeId":4357387} in the main window without going to the message
Thats not on my forum, its on vbulletin.com - I also got a few other similar errors when posting here

What's the URL to your forum?
The two licenses attached to your forum account have URLs that do not work (these should be updated as not having a correct URL is a license breach and risks takedown requests for your actual URL going to your hosts, as it won't show as licensed on our system).

Hey Mark,

I have to update that, totally forgot to be honest.
This isnt online though, its on my windows laptop using XAMPP to test before I put anything live.

Ok...thanks.

What version of vB are you testing, and what version of php is running on the XAMPP instance?

The php version requirements become fairly stringent in the latter 3.8 versions.

Assuming your local test forum is a local test url, I would guess your cookie settings are wrong, you will need to use tools.php to fix that.
