Hi Steven,
So... I finally finished my site redesign and everything is live. It turned out even better than I could have imagined! Anyway, Commentics survived the move over from the sub-domain I developed the site on just fine. At first I was getting the "The referrer has external origin" message and I couldn't do anything in admin, but I found this solution here at the forum:
Temporarily remove the following from /upload/admin/index.php:
So, I did that and I was then able to update my domain info in settings. Everything worked perfectly then. Well, then I added an SSL certificate and changed all of my internal links from http to https and put a permanent 301 redirect in my htaccess file. Once I accessed Commentics admin again, I realized I had the same problem with the "The referrer has external origin" message again. So, I repeated all of the above steps and once again, I was able to update my domain info in admin settings from http to https. Everything seems to be working fine... I am able to access everything in admin and change settings, etc... Comments are working perfect... The only thing is, for some reason when I hover over anywhere on the admin menu a 404 error message fills my screen as I hover from item to item on the menu... lol
Any help or sugggestions would be greatly appreciated.
