Posted - 03/19/2020 : 10:48:40 I just updated to 7.1.8 (PHP), and I am this warning on every page: Deprecated: Function get_magic_quotes_gpc() is deprecated in /home/judgra1/compassrosefarm.com/ShowEntry/vsadmin/inc/incfunctions.php on line 13 Same thing for store admin pages. Clicking on "add to cart" the first time got me a whole screenful of deprecated messages that vanished before I could copy them to look at them. Any idea what this is all about?

Can you check that all the files have made it to the server in the correct location please by checking the last modified date on all the files in the /ShowEntry/vsadmin directory?

If you back up a bit and switch to PHP 7.3.x for the time being you will get rid of those messages. At some point soon ECT will get updated and then you can move forward to PHP 7.4.x again.

If you get a new copy of the v7.1 updater it should solve these warnings. Vince Click Here for Shopping Cart Software Click Here to sign up for our newsletter Click Here for the latest updater

It seems OK that way, but why does the Store Admin pages no longer work with Firefox? Seems it now only works with Explorer.
Vince Administrator 42473 Posts	Posted - 03/19/2020 : 14:46:39 Hi Judith After the update there is a new style sheet for the admin. It's likely that you just need to do a <Ctrl>+F5 to force a refresh of this style sheet.

Posted - 03/19/2020 : 15:15:40 The problem with Firefox isn't the rendering of the page, the problem is that you Login, the page goes to "login Correct", and then puts you right back at login.php. It does not progress to the next page. Does the same thing on Chrome. Works as expected on MS Edge. I tried the CRTL-F5. Didn't do anything that I could detect.

That was with version 6.8. It may be something in a Firefox update that broke things. But Chrome is broken in the same way.

Down the lefthand side go to Privacy & Security scroll down to the heading Cookies and Site Data, usually the second heading down, then click on the Manage Data button and from the popup screen select the domain and remove. See if that solves the issue Steve Bolton, Lancashire, UK Remember - Any edits to the ectcart.css file will be overwritten by updater's.

The fact that this same behavior showed up in Chrome makes me think this is deeper. I very rarely use Chrome, and when I did, it was the first time with this site.
Vince Administrator 42473 Posts	Posted - 03/20/2020 : 08:47:01 Hi Judith When I've seen this before it has come down to caching on the website. The problem is if you cache dynamic pages like .php pages then you end up seeing old copies and not what you really want to see. For instance, with the login, even though you have now successfully logged in, you see the old, cached, pre-logged in page. Can you ask your host if they can check if .php pages are cached as a first step and let us know if they can't help.
