I'm now unable to log in to the admin - I enter username & password and for a second or 2 is says 'login correct' but then redirects back to the login screen again. Have tried a couple of browsers, and clearing cache. Any suggestions please? Thanks Ellen

Can you show the problem to your host, explain that you think that's the problem and I'm sure they will be able to fix it for you. Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software

EllenD Advanced Member United Kingdom 434 Posts	Posted - 12/20/2018 : 10:19:11 Just an update after speaking with hosts. Apparently in php.ini, the item 'session.save_handler = files' was incorrectly set to 'file' not 'files'. This had been created by the upgrade to PHP 7.1. So all sorted now :) Thank you
