    Login error Odness

    A member on a forum i help run received this error whilst on her laptop, I have never seen it before and due to the way its displayed it doenst look like a default vB error or a error in the code.

    So anyone have any ideas whether this is related to vB or would it be a problem on he laptop maybe?

    "POST requests from foreign hosts are not allowed"

    This error appears to be related to a hack you installed. Please see this thread:

    Im using vbIndex at www.site.com (http://www.site.com) and vBulletin at "forum.site.com" and therefor i get the message "POST requests from foreign hosts are not allowed." when someone tries to login from vbindex page. Is there someway to solve this? Maybe a settings in the admin cp for allowed sites or

      Is the login form on a separate (sub)domain? You can edit the init.php code to allow certain (sub)domains to do POST requests.

      No, the latest version of vBulletin includes referer checking on POST requests, and will produce this message if the check fails. It should be limited to certain actions (posting threads, sending private messages, etc), but instead it applies to everything (including logging in from a separate domain).
