Wittenberg upgraded to SMF 2.1.2

@Lüc unfortunately I am still getting a 403 Forbidden message when making changes to my profile.

@Lüc unfortunately I am still getting a 403 Forbidden message when making changes to my profile.

This is the first I hear of it. Do you mean *any* changes to your profile, like, just hitting "change profile" to save does that? Or does that trigger only when you change a specific field?

[Sir Lüc]

Oh, Btw! I totally forgot. A big reason why I insisted on doing the update was because SMF 2.1.2 adds Two Factors Authentication (2FA) support. I strongly recommend enabling this feature, on Witt and anywhere else that supports it (also, prefer using authenticator apps to SMS codes).

I tried replicating his error code once but didn't have an issue. I think, if I remember correctly, he is trying to update his picture?

Yes, that is correct! For some reason, when I go to update the profile pictures it tells me it is verboten. I am going to try and edit something else now as a test.

Thanks for the reminder. I've implemented it on my account.

Just tried to edit my signature and that failed as well unfortunately.
Something else I wanted to broach, is it possible to have a nonbinary option for gender? We currently have male, female, and none.

Witt really doesn't want to update the "Stoic Brenier pose" 😂

I think so, but I took a look and I'm not sure how to implement that. Luc might know.

[Sir Lüc]

Very weird that you'd receive a 403 from editing any field. I could have understood if maybe folder permissions were wrong and it wouldn't let the software save your picture, but I don't even think that would be a 403, PHP would complain, not your browser. The error log has nothing related to that either.
I'm at a loss, honestly, especially since nobody else seems to be able to replicate it. You wouldn't happen to be using any uncommon extension, or maybe a VPN? Also perhaps post the exact address that triggers the 403?

As for an option for nonbinary gender, I did randomly spot while updating mods that SMF changed how it handles gender, so it was just a matter of minutes to add it. Thanks for bringing it up! (I also changed "None" to the more accurate "Not specified"? Like, agender is a thing, but I don't think that's what SMF meant.)

[Sir Lüc]

Stumbled on a possible fix for the 403. Try again, @Breneir Tzaracomprada ?

[Sir Lüc]

One more thing: alerts for quotes and mentions are on the topmost bar. You don't get a popup notification though. (Maybe you need to enable them in your browser?)

I'll try to make them more visible in the new theme.

Thanks Luc. Testing now.

[Breneir Tzaracomprada]

Excellent, it worked Luc!
