[Xerte] Re: XOT Shared Settings working for some users but not others

[Ron Mitchell]

I'm testing with a local copy now so that I can see the database. Testing
sharing to two different user accounts one of which works the other doesn't.
No real difference in the logindetails table between the two accounts. One
is ID 3 the other ID 14. The one that works username is upper and lowercase
the one that doesn't username is all lowercase. I guess that may be
irrelevant.

I can't get any echo statements in share_this_template.php to appear.

Right,

The files run, and no JS errors occur.

As it works for some users fine and not others, the question is - what
is different about these users.

Looking in share_this_template.php - which does the sharing - it
relies heavily on the root folder working properly.

So I'd put some echos into this file and see what happens, but i'd be
surprised if the error wasn't caused by the self-reg code and users
which predate it.
