Answer to Joomla 1.5.9 Front-End Login Problem

Answer to Joomla 1.5.9 Front-End Login Problem

If you have just installed Joomla and placed the login form on the homepage, you or your visitors might have problem to login to their account. I have found out why users can’t login using the login form of the homepage of Ridhuan.co.cc. It’s probably because of the security setting of the login form. I didn’t notice previously that everytime I pushed the login button, the page is redirected to https://ridhuan.co.cc/index.php. My server might not support secure connection therefore the page cannot be loaded. If you’re experiencing the same problem, try check out the mod_login module in the Module Manager.

Try this:

  1. Go to the Module Manager
  2. Edit the mod_login module
  3. In the Module Parameters section, select No for Encrypt Login Form option.
modlogin

mod_login

I hope this would help. If you’re still experiencing the problem, check out Joomla Forum because it probably not because of the secure connection capability of your server.

If the problem is settled after trying my suggestion, don’t try to change your site setting to use SSL in the Global Configuration>Server>Force SSL. With force SSL, your site will be using https and you might not be able to login to administration page to remove the setting if your server does not offer SSL. The only way to revert back is by editing the configuration.php file.
