Every time I try to warm/feed a pokemon, it keeps giving me an "incorrect header referer" error. I've tried 3 browsers (Firefox, Safari and Internet Explorer), none of them worked. Does anybody know an easy fix for this? (I am currently using Firefox.)

Here's what it says..."An incorrect referrer header was detected, so your interaction was not submitted." It doesn't say anything else.

Mm, BB replied the same to this as for someone else - Have you got your javascript enabled?
Maybe search for relevant posts too. -------------------- |

Javascript is enabled right now. Does the error have something to do with Firefox? Edit: disabling my firewall seemed to do it. But, is that the best option that doesn't involve messing around with my computer?

But, is that the best option that doesn't involve messing around with my computer? I wouldn't disable firewall for long - your risking virus and worms to enter your computer.. Did you try the defaults settings from that link i posted? like this for example "If you're using Firefox, type in about:config, find "network.http.sendRefererHeader" and make sure it is set to 2."

It's already set to 2. I've checked.

Just upgraded to the newest Firefox. It didn't help at all.

If disabling your firewall worked, then it's obviously the cause of the problem. You don't have to keep it off, though. All you need to do is add GPXplus as a trusted site onto it's whitelist.
I suggest reading through this link: http://codex.wordpress.org/Enable_Sending_Referrers There are some instructions for different firewalls and anti-virus software on how to edit the security settings. -------------------- |

The firewall I use isn't on there. What now? Google it. What firewall are you using? Just dink around in the settings. If you find something like "safe list" or "white list" or "trusted sites" or anything else that sounds like it would be a synonym of those words, then you're in the right place. -------------------- |

My firewall doesn't appear to have this setting. I've poked around for a while, and it doesn't have a "Whitelist" or anything like that. I'm MAJOR confused. (I'm using Symantec Client Firewall, btw)

Did you try the defaults settings from that link i posted? like this for example "If you're using Firefox, type in about:config, find "network.http.sendRefererHeader" and make sure it is set to 2." I've got the same problem but I'm not a computer expert.. so.. where do I find this about:config? Or where should I type this? |
