Question: I can't edit or create stories.

Answer: Note: This article only applies to old versions of Geeklog (1.3.11 and older). For current versions, try I can't change anything! instead.


First of all, make sure you have register_globals=on in your php.ini file (if not: change it to on, restart your webserver and try again).

The next thing to check is that you have file_uploads=on in your php.ini (again: if it isn't, change it to on, restart your webserver and try again).

And if that didn't fix it, then you're experiencing a still unresolved problem in your server configuration (there is some indication that this might even be a bug in PHP itself). The only known workaround at this point is to remove the enctype="multipart/form-data" from the template file for the Admin story editor (layout/YourTheme/admin/story/storeditor.thtml). You will lose the ability to upload images in stories after that change, but you should then be able to create and edit stories.
