Login problems...

[ADMINGUYF]

Everyone,

I am aware that there is a login error. In fact, I myself logged out so that I can try to log back in and see what's happening--and now I don't have access either. :-D

I believe WP did something to the coding when he moved the links menu, and have contacted him via the MAAC PM feature as well as on Facebook, so that he can take a look. I've also put a post on the Proboards support forum, in case it's a Proboards glitch. Please hang tight while this gets sorted out.

Also, to prevent this from happening in the future, the next time you guys log on, in the menu where it asks you how long you want to be logged on for, choose "forever". The login issue we're having now does not affect anyone who logged in "forever", including myself, until I logged myself out (stupidly!).

Hey All,

Apologize for that. It was a silly careless syntax error on my part. It's amazing the difference code can have when you don't add a single character. In this case it was a '}".

When I didn't close the "Links of Interest" code statement, the end result was basically an infinite loop that didn't recognize logging in.

To make matters worse I was in the middle of hosting a BBQ (debuted the new grill so I wasn't exactly responsive when the problem occurred.

Anyway, I apologize for the issue, and won't make that mistake again. I literally haven't made that mistake since Computer Science 201 back at Siena. [Insert bad Siena education joke here].

Apologies again!

widespread, you really are becoming a pain!
Your helpfulness and concerns for this board are making it exceedingly difficult for some of us to maintain our intense hatred for your alma mater.
Thanks much for all your help!

It's impossible not to make an error while writing code. If that's your only error since CS 201, then you got a very good Siena education or you are a genius ... or both. Thanks again.

Well, we know it's not the former.
