vB6 quirk?

[Wayne]

In version 6.0.8, has anyone encountered issues logging into forums with custom templates? When I attempt to log in, nothing seems to happen—it still shows me as logged out. However, refreshing the page usually resolves it.

It's a very minor inconvenience, but I'm curious if anyone else has experienced something similar.

Hmmm.

I've not encountered this one yet.

Has that happened here and on OTF?

[Wayne]

It happens on OTF and one of my professional forums. Not a one-off, but consistent on both.

I ask because I wonder if the themes need to be updated for 6.0.8.

I don't think my themes have been updated for it.

My XenForo themes usually get an update after a new version of XF has been released. I didn't know if that's a routine thing with vB as well?

[Wayne]

I bet that's it. I'm not sure how often creators release updates for themes.

[Shawn Gossman]

I'll have to ask mine in a support thread or something and see if they need to update.

I paid for this theme and the one on OTF so I'd hope they'd keep them updated with the versioning.

I've seen similar after upgrades and style updates, refreshing your browser with a Shift-F5 so it will reload without using cached data a few times usually clears it up for me. I've had regular users who have logged in just after an update comment after similar experiences but it usually fixes itself within a short time.

Thanks for the tips my friend!
