"Reply with quote" points to the wrong login page.

When not logged in to the forums and reading a thread, then clicking on “Reply with Quote” the login page points to the old authentication system rather than https://forums.opensuse.org/ICSLogin/auth-up and subsequently any attempts to login via that form will fail.

Not a big deal, just something I noticed while trying to reply to a thread.

Thanks Miuku. AFAIU, it has already been reported and the relevant team notified. :slight_smile:

There is another thread about this.

AFAIK, it does not refer to the old login method, but to a direct vBulletin login, which is not used by the forums and thus fails.

There is a bug report higher up in the SUSE organisation. There are more things to sort out after the move, thus I assume it will take some time before being solved.

Yes, I suspect so.

I (and I suspect others) get “You are not authorized to access this page.”

You may need to login ( same creds as the forums. But here’s the content:

Hi
On forums.o.o the Reply-with-quote ( bottom right of posts ) shows when not
being logged in, but then leads to the VBulleting login. The Reply button does
not show.
Proposed fixes:

  1. Hide butten from non-logged in users

or

  1. Make clicking when not logged in use the new login system

The page indicates that I am logged in.

So there are now two places where it is reported. That must increase the speed :wink:

I like your logic. :smiley:

Without a doubt, it was just something I spotted and thought I’d bring up in case if it was accidentally forgotten while doing all the migration work.

As I said, it’s a very minor little thing :slight_smile:

Oh yes, we appreciate. Better two reports then none because everbody assumes “that will be done by another one”

And it is also not unimportant to get an idea about how many people stumble into it.

Don’t think it’s related. I noticed the Reply with Quote showing when nog logged in years ago, but I did not try it. Just looked at the top of the page and saw I wasn’t logged in anymore.
