Ignore list editing tool error

[Brian B-P]

When I tried to add a member to my Ignore List, from the Ignore List page under the User CP, after selecting a valid user name and hitting the strangely labeled "Okay" button I got this:

vBulletin Message
Invalid Redirect URL (https://www.escapeforum.org/forums/p...?do=ignorelist)

The problem is repeatable for me, but I don't know if others are seeing the same error.

Depends on who you're trying to ignore. For instance, you can't ignore the site team members.

Good point, but trying to ignore a site team member produces a different and appropriate message; I just tested that and got this:

vBulletin Message
Sorry Donna D. is a moderator/admin and you are not allowed to ignore him or her.

So this is an error unrelated to the (intentional and understandable) inability to ignore the site team.

I also just tried another random member name (not the one I was trying to add, and just another ordinary member), and it produces the same error, so it doesn't appear to be an issue with the selected member.

I'm out of ideas then. An admin will need to answer. Be patient, it's a long holiday weekend in the USA.

Hey Brian,
I just added you to my ignore list and got the same error. However, when I went back in it had added you to the list despite the error msg. When I removed you it gave the same error but it did remove you when I checked. So it appears to be working despite the error message.

Thanks Greg. When I tried it the name had not been added, but there may just have been a delay. I tried adding and deleting your name, and sure enough it works but produces the error messages as you described.

Thanks Donna. As Greg figured out, the error appears to be only in messages, not in functionality; there's no rush (and wouldn't be a rush even if it didn't work).

So an error message that is an error...what is the world coming to.
