Whitelist error problem

[hpdsoundoff]

I've already searched other helpful threads for this problem, but to no avail.

Here is my problem:

When I try to log-in to my forums (http://www.hpdsoundoff.com/forum/index.php) I get the following error message:

In order to accept POST request originating from this domain, the admin must add this domain to the whitelist.

I cannot even access my admincp!

My home page is www.HPDsoundoff.com and there is a link to the forums from there.

From reading the other related problems with this error, it seems easy to fix once I can get into the admincp area.

Thank in advance for the help!

Fill out a support ticket at:

Be sure to include the login info to your Admin CP, phpMyAdmin and FTP. Please also include a complete description of the problem.

They couldn't resolve my problem.

How can I edit the whitelist without accessing the normal usercp? Can I edit the file? If so, which file and how?

Thank you!

I've taken over your ticket and responded there.
The forum should work again now.

Colin...

I received the same error today when logging into my forum at www.fire-forums.com/forums

I opened a support ticket and received a reply from a V Bulleting Tech stating it is not a V Bulletin issue but instead a problem with my hosting company. I have no idea what is going on but I see you repaired a forum for someone else. Is it possible for you to look into my situation also?

I've responded in your ticket.
What I did is simply turn off the post referrer checking system, by adding this line to the config.php file:

define('SKIP_REFERRER_CHECK', true);

What specifically is causing this whitelist error message? Has someone hacked the forum? I haven't changed anything and this started happening. Also something else strange happening is there are a lot of redudant guests online w/ the same ip address since the whitelist error starting appearing after attempting to log in.

I Have a ticket in at the moment. Waiting for a responce.

As Colin F said adding:

define('SKIP_REFERRER_CHECK', true);
After the <?php line
Fixed it.

Where can I add a domain to the whitelist? Thanks!

I moved my forum to a subforum and got that error message.
I added define('SKIP_REFERRER_CHECK', true); to my config file and it's working. Just curious what that is all about.
