Customer login problem

[micmed]

Searched this but did not find what I need.

My sales have dropped off over the past few months especially from current customers. I was having a problem with Google Merchant Center feeder so I thought my lack of business was due in part to Google not indexing my products correctly. I fixed that and found another problem.

If a current customer tried to login from the "Current Customers" page they will get " There was a security error when trying to login". However, with an empty cart, if they click on "Checkout" on the top menu it goes to the "Whoops! Your session has expired" screen and allows them to login.

Mods:
Apple Zen
Easy Populate
Google Merchant Center Feeder
Sitemap XML

Thanks for the help in advance.

Your login page has (apparently) been modified from the default because it doesn't have the hidden input variable for your customers' session securityToken. See the following post: http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.p...00#post1192100.

Thanks for the reply. Are you saying that my login.php has been modified? It is the original unmodified file. Is there another file I should be looking at?

Thanks

Do you have a file named /includes/templates/avonlee_contempo/templates/tpl_login_default.php? If so, that's the one that has the issue. If that file's present, please post the first comment section to identify the 'progeny' of the file. For example, the unmodified version of the file (/includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_login_default.php includes:

/**

 * @copyright Copyright 2003-2011 Zen Cart Development Team

 * @version $Id: tpl_login_default.php 18695 2011-05-04 05:24:19Z drbyte $
 */

You can also use your text-editor to search the file for <form, which will identify where your problem is.

lat9, I found the problem. /includes/modules/pages/login/header_php.php somehow got modified. I uploaded the stock 1.5.1 file and it now works. Thanks for the help.

Thanx for posting the fix. Those "somehow got modified" problems are often the worst. Might be time to find out how many cooks are involved here.
