Thanks Dave and Glenn! I can't wait to get working on it and am really glad there's a solution!

Only problem is, i'm still yet to get the software working. My host suddenly withdrew a file which stopped it working and i've asked them to look into it. Now i'm getting the same problem seen on the forum before, posted here: http://www.interactivetools.com/iforum/Products_C2/CMS_Builder_F35/Please_disable_the_magic_quotes_gpc_setting_in_php.ini_or_with_.htaccess._P58374/

So, I've searched my hosts support database which tells me i cannot change the php.ini file for security reasons.

The hosts i have used to try and get this uploaded are streamline.net and ipowerweb.com and neither seem to work! I think dreamhost.com are going to make a fortune out of us CMS enthusiasts! I just hope i can get my money back from the others!

Fingers crossed it will work first time!

Nikki,

You were having the 'mysqli extension missing' problem before right? And now that's fixed and you're getting a 'disable magic_quotes_gpc' error?

If you host was working before and then they changed something that broke their PHP then it seems reasonable that they should fix it.

What hosting provider is this error on? Do you want us to try to assist with that? Some hosting providers let you tweak the php.ini settings by having a .htaccess file or other means. With .htaccess it looks like this:

<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off
</IfModule>


Let us know what's up and how we can help!

Hi Dave,

Yeah that's right. There was already a .htaccess file with the code you mentioned on my server but it was removed. I've uploaded it again but still no joy? Any ideas?

You should already have my ftp details if this helps, from our previous emails (ticket no: Sales #RZO-352509).

I've got to get this site up and running for Monday coming so i'm really keen to get working on it.

I also need to purchase another licence and would ideally like to keep the same host for familiarity when creating my second site - obviously, only if we can get it to work! Its streamline.net that are hosting the site at the moment.

Thanks for all your help [:)]

Thanks, I'm going to research this. If nothing else maybe I can update the software to work around the issue.

What version are you running? You can check here: Admin > General > Program Version.

Hi Dave,

I believe i'm on version 1.6 however i can't check from admin as i can't log in!

- the message is showing here too.

Jake emailed me Tuesday to advise you had done a workaround for me and it was all working fine but then all of a sudden it disappeared! Its very strange.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Right, I remember. Your host must be up to something. Have you heard anything back from them? (I'm researching the work-around now).

No not yet, they said it can take between 24-48 for a response which really isn't ideal given my deadline!!!

thanks Dave :)

Hi Nikki,

I have a code fix that should work around it. I'll post it (or login and update it for you) tomorrow. Stay tuned for that and let me know if anything else comes up.
