"Open Buddy List" not working

[MangaD]

Hello, it is as the title says. The "Open Buddy List" is not working. Upon inspecting element this is the error message I get:

Failed to load https://www.lf-empire.de/forum/misc.php?...buddypopup: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'https://lf-empire.de' is therefore not allowed access.

*sigh...*

Which browser? Why is it so difficult to provide me with basic information?

Works for me in Firefox 57, @mfc confirmed that it works in Chrome.





Also, while I'm on a rant, go fix the certificate-error with HFE, your sig is bugging me.

Spoiler (Click to View)

For the record, the entire website is inaccessible for me (SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN, certificate is valid for *.alfahosting-server.de, alfahosting-server.de; not herofighter-empire.com).


edit: apparently, Firefox is super-sturdy in remembering sites where even hard refreshes (Ctrl+F5 or whatever) don't help. One gotta hit forget about this site to make it accessible.

It is working for me as well now. Thank you.

I will see what I can do about HFE.

Coming back to this topic, I've just noticed that this bug happens if the url has the www prefix.

Confirmed. Seems like it's got to do something with

{$mybb->settings['bburl']}

plus browsers being very picky about URLs nowadays. Gotta figure something out at some point, running a bit low on time right now...

I believe the easiest way is to just redirect www to non-www. This should also solve a few issues such as mirrored domain. Put this in the .htaccess inside the forum folder:

Code:

# Used to not interfere with the .htaccess from Joomla
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

# HTTPS force
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

# Rewrite www to non-www
# Taken from: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/234723/generic-htaccess-redirect-www-to-non-www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%1/forum/$1 [R=301,L]

Thanks! I added it now, please report back if you encounter any issues
