Hi,
Do you get that message even when accessing the pages using the menu?
If so, open /commentics/admin/index.php and find this section (line 350):
PHP Code:
<?php
/* Check Referrer */
if (cmtx_setting('check_referrer')) {
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])) { //if referrer available
$referrer = cmtx_url_decode($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']); //get referrer
$domain = cmtx_url_decode(cmtx_setting('site_domain')); //get domain
if (!stristr($referrer, $domain)) { //if referrer does not contain domain
?>
<span class='negative'>The referrer has external origin.</span>
<p />
You have arrived at this page from outside of the admin panel.
<p />
Please access this page through the menu above.
<?php
die();
}
}
}
Then comment it out like this:
PHP Code:
<?php
/* Check Referrer */
/*
if (cmtx_setting('check_referrer')) {
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])) { //if referrer available
$referrer = cmtx_url_decode($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']); //get referrer
$domain = cmtx_url_decode(cmtx_setting('site_domain')); //get domain
if (!stristr($referrer, $domain)) { //if referrer does not contain domain
?>
<span class='negative'>The referrer has external origin.</span>
<p />
You have arrived at this page from outside of the admin panel.
<p />
Please access this page through the menu above.
<?php
die();
}
}
}
*/
You should be able to navigate the admin panel now. Then go to Settings -> System and make sure that the 'Site Domain' setting is correct. It should look similar to this: commentics.org
If it was incorrect and you corrected it, you should now be able to uncomment the previous code.
