Re: Security Error, when trying to log in

Your site is setup for Create Account and Login when I have already created and account and logged in ...

There is no log out ...

Sounds like you have an old template in use ...

Switch to the Classic Template, does it work now?

Re: Security Error, when trying to log in

What version Zen Cart are you running?

Upgrade or a Clean Install?

Where did you get your template?

It sounds like somewhere you have broken the logic with your template and you will need to compare those files to the original files and see if your customizaiton has broken the logic ...

Re: Security Error, when trying to log in

Could also try...

  • empting the Browser cache
  • close Browser and reopen
  • if using Windows OS use CTRL + F5

The learning is in the doing.

Re: Security Error, when trying to log in

You need to edit your tpl_login_default file on your new template and add the 2 lines regarding securitytoken. Just open the file from the default template and see where the lines are located and copy them over. You will also need to do the same with the tpl_timeout file. If your new template didnt come with that one (mine didnt) then just copy over the one from the original template.
