New Talk to Beta Skin

witnessmenow

Hey Guys,

I just tried to create a new thread in Richersounds forum and I noticed there is a new skin

So i wrote out my post and selected a catogoary and all that stuff and cliked submit. I got "CSRF verification failed - invalid token" received in a kind of pink bar near the top of the page. My post was not submitted.

I thought it may be related to the new skin, so i clicked "switch off beta look", which just brings me to the adverts talk to page with the beta look left on.

I have tested trying to do a dummy thread to adverts forum, same issue.

Any idea what is up?

witnessmenow

Actually, apologies. Its creating a thread I have the issue with

Howdy witnessmenow,

The beta look can't be switched off now, it's gone fully live. Are you still having the problem?

Would you mind visiting http://www.boards.ie/diagnostics and pasting in the System and Browser details? You can leave out your IP address for security

Hey witnessmenow,

Sorry about the delay in getting back to you and thanks for the info regarding your home connection. What I'm suspecting is that your work ISP may have a pool of IPs it uses to send requests to the internet and you've requested the page with one and sent it with the other leading to a security token failure. Is there any chance you could verify this with your network provider? If not then don't worry, I'm going to see if I can change how the token is generated for logged in users to become IP independent.

Unfortunately I would 100% not be able to get any info from my network provider!

If there is anything i can do with fiddler or firebug or whatever let me know.

No major panic on sorting it for me anyways , I shouldnt be on boards during work anyways Im sure you know the way it is :pac:

Boards.ie: Danny

So we've made some changes to how our security tokens are calculated and removed any reliance on remote IP address. I'm thinking this should resolve your problem if you'd like to confirm?
