Closing my site prevents me logging into the back end

Question

I have set my 'shopstatus' config setting to close the shop. However, when I return to the back end, I cannot access it. Instead, I am forwarded to the 'store closed' page.

Answer

This was a bug with early releases of v5.1 and was fixed with the v5.108 release. The reason is that the lockshop.asp include file is referenced on the cookies_check.asp page. Since all users go via this page when they first hit CactuShop, anyone hitting the back end will be sent to it and then be redirected to the 'store closed' page.

The fix is simple - the line in cookies_check.asp referencing the lockshop.asp include file should be removed.
