SID-01200: PersonalInfoAddOn save not working

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	5.0.1	Perl version:	5.8
Category:	PersonalInfoAddOn	Server OS:	Ubuntu 8.04	Last update:	14 years ago

When i try to select profile picture, it stays the same(Change Picture).

I also can't save any data in form(Work phone, Work phone, mobile, E-mail Location ). I get this error:

The save script can only be called with POST method. Example:

<form name="new" action="%SCRIPTURLPATH{save}%/Sandbox/" method="post"> ... </form>

If you are developing a TWikiApplication, see TWikiScripts for a description of the correct parameters.

What is the problem here? I test script in Main/PersonalInfoHome

Discussion and Answer

I am not familiar with this add-on.

A while back we did some security hardening against cross-site scripting attacks. Since then all forms require a method="post" for content changes. This add-on might still use the default method="get". Search for all forms in this add-on and check.

TWiki is open source. If you find a fix we'd appreciate if you contribute that back. More at GettingInvolved.

There is no lesser need for this add-on because its functionality is now largely covered by TWiki-5.1, also with a nice user interface.

Closing this question after more than 30 days of inactivity. Feel free to reopen if needed. Consider engaging one of the TWiki consultants if you need timely help. We invite you to get involved with the community, it is more likely you get community support if you support the open source project!
