Got it.</p> <p>I see now that it's still broken. Are you sure there is nothing causing a meta redirect? The only thing that stops the looping for me is to disable meta redirects in my browser. Other than that, it loops forever. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/infinite-loops-on-posts-and-profiles#post-17279 Mon, 14 Jul 2008 19:01:08 +0000 Anonymous 17279@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hi Chris, </p> <p>Appreciating your continued interest in this.</p> <p>By "switched it over" I meant on the setting for Pretty permalink type:<br /> The normal way to get this working in IIS is 'none' as it doesn't like url rewrites, so when I switched it over I meant I temporarily turned the setting to 'Name based' purely to stop visitors setting the forum into an infinite loop and using a ton of bandwidth as this goes straight to a 404 page not a loop</p> <p>So the loop occurs when the permalinks are set to 'None" as can be seen here:</p> <p><a href="http://www.louisecooper.com/journal/messageboard/topic.php?id=38" rel="nofollow">http://www.louisecooper.com/journal/messageboard/topic.php?id=38</a></p> <p>That is the query string format that normally works in IIS.</p> <p>As for setting the permalinks to true or slugs specifically I'm not sure how to do that.<br /> But I am not using the pretty permalinks normally, I only had it set to that when you visited yesterday so that my bandwidth wasn't wasted.</p> <p>That make sense?<br /> Hope so.....</p> <p>So if you visit right now:<br /> <a href="http://www.louisecooper.com/journal/messageboard/index.php" rel="nofollow">www.louisecooper.com/journal/messageboard/index.php</a></p> <p>It is set as it should be, complete with loops on topics.... </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/infinite-loops-on-posts-and-profiles#post-17277 Mon, 14 Jul 2008 16:25:20 +0000 chrishajer 17277@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>But it *isn't* just using the normal query strings, I don't think.

If I disable "meta redirects" in FF with the web developer toolbar, it does not keep redirecting, it just dies. Are you trying to redirect people from the bbPress profile page to the WordPress profile page, and somehow that is typed wrong? Like in journal/messageboard/profile.php there is a redirect that sends the browser to WordPress journal/wp-admin/profile.php and it's not working for some reason?</p> <p>2. There is some weird test cookie stuff being sent, although I doubt it has any effect on this problem. Never know though.</p> <pre><code>wordpress_test_cookie WP+Cookie+check <a href="http://www.louisecooper.com" rel="nofollow">www.louisecooper.com</a> /journal/</code></pre> &nbsp;<br /> I suspect it's something with a refresh bouncing the user back and forth. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/infinite-loops-on-posts-and-profiles#post-17246 Sun, 13 Jul 2008 08:19:34 +0000 Anonymous 17246@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Ha, yeah I switched it over to make it stop looping to save bandwidth....Just before you messaged rather typically....</p> <p>I will set it going now and will leave it live for the day.</p> <p>If someone could have a look that would be awesome.</p> <p>Thanks </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/infinite-loops-on-posts-and-profiles#post-17234 Sat, 12 Jul 2008 20:21:25 +0000 chrishajer 17234@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I don't get an infinite loop, but everything I clicked on in the message board resulted in a 404 error.

The new site will have it's own login and registration but I would like to enable single sign on for both services.</p> <p>The proposed solution for this is on registration, register the user on my site then process a registration for bbPress using the same details. Similarly, on logon I will have a script to logon to an ASP session and then to a bbPress PHP session. (both my site and the bbPress forum will be on the same domain).</p> <p>Heres the question. How can I do this? Is there a page I can submit form information to (using AJAX or similar) on registration? Is there a page I can submit login information to to write a PHP session? I'm not very fluent in PHP so if someone could help me out here I would be very grateful. </p>
