Settings Revert to Default

posts: 3 United States

I recently installed TikiWiki 1.7.7 from the zipfile off of freashmeat onto Apache/WindowsXP. I installed everything O.K. I logged in as admin and changed some settings. In the "Features" part, every time I add more features, they work for 1 click after, then revert back to the default settings. Whats the problem?

P.S. TikiWiki looks AWSOME!

Apart from using Windows, the problem is likely to be you set tiki-user_preferences for the admin user to a theme, which will override the global site one.

Ouch! 1.8RC3 is a very old TikiWiki! The RC series are pre 1.8.0 developers code. 1.8.2 is the latest, and 1.8.3 as on tikiwiki.org will be released soon.

hey if you were the guy on IRC I figured out your problem, you were entering a quote in Sender email and 1.7 didn't handle quotes in many places like admin screens.
