Badnav issue

[xpd]

Hi,

Been running the game (1.1.2) for a month or so without any problems... but now when I try to use my admin account i get the following :

"Click here.

If you cannot leave this page, notify the staff via petition and tell them where this happened and what you did. Thanks."

If I click the "Click here" it takes me to my MOTD page and thats it.

I have added a few modules but never had any problems until now - even deleted the most recent one just in case its causing the problem. Other user accounts log in fine without any issues.

Ive seen a couple of posts saying to modify the badnav.php file but it appears to have changed since those posts so im not sure if my modifying it will help or make things worse

Any ideas ?

Thanks!

Modifying the badnav.php file would only make it worse.  You should never need to modify a core file as a fix to a problem, and modification of core files is recommended done only by those conversant in php and LoGD coding.

Check out the best practices article in the Dragonpedia, and setup a second admin account for yourself, if you haven't already done so.

Thanks

Added my "play" account as an admin as well as a friend so should be right now

Ill have to get another install running to test modules on to hopefully avoid any further issues

For some reason when I switched to a Linux server from my Windows server half of my mods didn't work and caused badnavs. no idea why that happened but I'm back on a Windows server now and every mod works.
