closedWrong login procedure offered to forums users
100%
Description
New openSUSE forums member authentication.
When one is NOT logged in and tries to answer to a post there is only one posiblity: Rely with Quote below a post (the Reply below the thread is not available, do not know why).
This then leads to a login page, because only logged in members may replay. This login page however is a VBulletin login page and not a login page from our authentication system. The login is impossible because VBulletin does not know the password. Very frustrating and ununderstandable for most.
All the fallbacks of VB to it's own login should be removed, or point to the correct login procedure.

Hmm, thanks Christian :-)
I'll take a look I suppose, but I know nothing about Vbulletin .... maybe it can be fixed with some apache redirections.

You would have to do some creative if statements checking to see if the user isn't already authenticated, since the url for that page is /newreply.php. In case you are gonna handle this, remember to use /ICSLogin/auth-up?url=$url as the login redirect, so it redirects back to $url after login.

I'll un-assign myself from this, I won't have much time in the next few weeks and I don't really want to fiddle with that vb code.

I modified the STANDARD_ERROR template, so now the permission error redirects to login page

I tested this and what I see is correct in my opinion.
Thanks a lot for curing this.
