Vbulletin bug.

[rollsroyce11991]

The vbulletin won't let me log out. When i attempt to log out it says "An error occurred while attempting to log you out." Then it shows me a link that i clicked on and it brought me back to the page i was viewing, still logged in.

i noticed that a bunch of the forum features dont work around here, ie. forum tools, quick links, etc.

I believe you have to be a moderator to access the forum tools, and for quick links i think you specify your quick links under User CP, and before you specify your quick links then nothing happens when you click on quick links. I could be wrong but this is how it is under other vbulletins i have seen.

Well i don't see anything about quick links under User CP, but thats how you do it under other vbulletins i have seen/

Non-mods should be able to access these. I'm noticing the same thing but only about 30% of the time. When I click on 'Thread Tools', no menu appears

Dee's also seeing the problem, but less often (she uses Opera, I use IE). So it does seem there's a bug in vBulletin. Unfortunately we can't upgrade to the 4.x.x series of vBulletin yet because BMO creates forums for new leagues -- and the vBulletiin 4.x.x code doesn't work the same way.

In any case, we're trying to see what we can do to fix this. Until then, I can usually work around it by reloading the page. And mods should be able to work around this by using the 'Moderation' drop-down in the lower right of a thread. I'm not a vBulletin expert, so I'm not sure what other options non-Mods might have.
