Title: Hacking Attempt ~ Solved
Post by: ~Stargazer~ on May 06, 2013, 09:30:28 pm
Hi floofs, recently tried to change my signature and when I hit change I get this message:

Hacking attempt...
(Then I says all my account settings)

Anyone know what this means? I'm 11, I don't know how to hack. Even if I did, I wouldn't do it anyway.

As far as I know, it was probably just your session on that page timed out while you were writing your signature, so the "Save" button sent you an error message. So, I don't think there's any hacking going on, so don't sweat it.

I'd try logging out, then back into the forum, and then try re-writing and saving your new signature. This will probably fix the issue. If it persists, though, PM one staff member here (http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=28&Itemid=52) and explain the issue, since it could just be a forum glitch.

Don't sweat it, floof. c:

Ok....umm..... Another problem... Instead of showing the picture I want it to show it shows a black box. Does this mean that the picture does not exist?
Adding on to that it now shows this message:
Database Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 't care what you think...
[img width=247 height=300]http://pixeldripgallery.' at line 12
File: /var/www/smf/Sources/Subs.php
Line: 631
Any ideas of what this means?

(Try not to double-post, Star. You can update your last post by selecting the 'Modify' button at the top right of your post.)

And it may just be how you're coding the image. I suggest uploading your image (from your computer) to Tinypic.com (free, easy to use, safe to use) and copy+pasting the IMG code into your signature.
When you've done this, save, and then you should have a loverly signature of your choice. c:

DX I'm so sorry. I've been aware of the rule of double posting and from the start I've tried to avoid it. And I know about the modifying button. The second post was just me being utterly stupid and clueless DX

Oooooooohhhh, that makes sense 'cuz I was trying to change my signature on my iPad (that also includes posting on all of this on my iPad) so I think I now know that that's what's causing the problem.

No-no, not stupid at all, floof. Not by any means. xD I was just reminding you, is all. Typically the only time a double-post is okay is if you're bumping a thread that hasn't been active in a few days, and you still need help. Just keep it in mind for the future, of course, but don't sweat that. c:

As for your siggie issues, I think it is best if you try to fix it from your computer. I hope it works for ya!

Noooo DX Ok, it didn't work for me it says that it changed in but it only shows a black box with an x on it.
Should I just pick another picture for my signature? Or should I get advise from a MOD?

Well, for the time being, I would suggest trying a different image. Make sure that you're using the IMG code after uploading it to tinypic.com or photobucket, and it should work.

Edit - I don't know how but I tried it one more time and it worked. Yay, love my new siggy! Thanks WhiteLightHeart! ;)
