Update / delete of set and album names does not work

Thanks Ben,
I am waiting for the ISP to react. Ice Ages come and go quicker...
I'll update here when something happens, or if it does not then I'll be after that disabling function.

http://php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#i … er-globals

Might want to check your PHP version on your host as the "feature" (which I agree was horrifically stupid in so many ways) was deprecated in 5.3.x and removed in 5.4.0.

If you are using PHP 5.3.x or lower, that link also shows that you might be able to disable it via .htaccess which your host should permit.

Thanks SunFoxNC. I have pointed out the facts as you state above to the ISP. If nothing happens I'll try the .htaccess route as it is lower than 5.3.x. Thanks again for the tip

Hi Ben,
I'm still waiting on the ISP doing something. they are certainly dragging their heels. Can you point me at disabling the block to phpLiteAdmin please as you offered.
Thanks

Hi Tom, they're really taking their time.
I'd first try the .htaccess route, by adding this to /.htaccess

php_flag register_globals off

If that doesn't work, the file to edit (for now) is backlight/admin/application/views/admin/phpliteadmin-new.php

Comment out the block of code around line 1037 by surrounding it with /* ... */ so that it looks like this:

/*if(ini_get("register_globals") == "on" || ini_get("register_globals")=="1") //check whether register_globals is turned on - if it is, we need to not continue
{
	echo "<div class='confirm' style='margin:20px;'>".$lang['bad_php_directive']."</div>";
	echo "</body></html>";
	exit();
}*/

Thanks Ben,
the .htaccess edit did the trick thanks. I have deleted the two rows and will now continue with testing.
