A Forum-error ( PHP ) ?
it's very boring to have to enter my login and password all the times I access this forum. Is there any solution? The link I put int the previous post does not help anything?
A Forum-error ( PHP ) ?
Kleyber, I have not found a solution for it yet. I was thinking to install the most recent phpbb in a different folder of the server and then try to import the entire SQL backup file. But I guess that all the addons that we have currently installed on our forums, should have to be ported to the new phpbb version and...

Antonio, The link I put in the previous post does not show you anything about this problem? I hope you can find the solution.

Doug, You can hide it ( oDlg:Hide() ) and later on show it ( oDlg:Show() ) again instead of end it. You may need to create it as non modal, and to simulate modal behavior, disable other windows and dialogs doing oWnd:Disable(). Later on enable them doing oWnd:Enable()
