Subject: Upgrade to last devel show weird behaviour
I had to upgrade to latest devel version of UNB cause our forum was hacked due - possibily - to the recently discovered security bug.
Before deploying the new code to the production server, we installed the new software in a test environment, especially because we had to update our customized layout.
But the upgrade in the test environment shows some weird behaviour:
- logout button reloads the page keeping the user logged in
- posting a new thread and replying to an old one also reload the page without creating the new thread or replying. The "preview" button works properly.

Any idea what could be happening?
Thanks

Just to be clear: all this happens with the "default" UNB layout and not with our modified Layout.

Can you monitor the HTTP headers in your browser to see if the cookies are set correctly? A faulty PHP source file may lead to HTTP headers being discarded (a common PHP problem) and then you might not be logged out.

This may also be due to a cookie confusion in your browser. Please try to leave the UNB site, clear all cookies for that domain (or eventually all domains), restart the browser and try again.

- posting a new thread and replying to an old one also reload the page without creating the new thread or replying. The "preview" button works properly.

This needs more local interactive debugging.
