    Hi, So is there any resolution to this? I am having exactly the same problem as you guys and it is driving me nuts. I have now asked my webhosting company to move me over to cpanel and see if that fixes it. The really odd thing is that I was using plesk on dedicated hosting with another provider just fine, I then migrated over to a new hosting company and suddenly it doesn’t work! It must be some particular combination of plesk, apache and php which cases it.

      all of the sudden client contacted me with exactly same problem. it appeared just by itself, probably internet hosting provided has done some changes on the server.

      ALL hyperlinks get added a string ’?phpMyAdmin=0c26334a740380c07d08bcce39cae4f7’

      did anyone found solution to that? embarrassed

        The only solution I found is to dump the database to a sql file and remove these strings! Search carefully for "phpMyAdmin" and remove every string. Be smart use "find and replace" to find everything, you need to do this multiple times to get all the different strings.

        But watch out... ’?phpMyAdmin=0c26334a740380c07d08bcce39cae4f7’ is not the only thing that get’s added!! If there are forms there will be a hidden field added, and some times it wil place a complete href tag with the link in it.
        Very strange, I don’t know what it is... I’m happy that we moved from plesk to direct admin, which solved the problem of manipulated databases.

          The only solution I found is to use phpmyadmin installed on my website without using Plesk.
          In this way I have no problem.

            Thank you MediaGuy and Sara75. The additional code is indeed added in the sql table to all the hyperlinks and hidden forms. >:( I have to remove it manually :’(
            I cannot roll back the backup because client meanwhile has done some changes to the content.
            Unfortunately the hosting provider that is servicing this site is using only Plesk so probably I’ll have to move it to another one.

            thanks for a rapid reply!


            something funny:
            I just got a call from the technical support and lady on the other side said to me that i get the issue because I have wrong URL in the hyperlinks in HTML code. I tired explain her that the pages are being generated dynamically using something called PHP & mySQL, but she was too stubborn.
            the hosting provider is called Indiatimes Hosting. beware.

              If you install your own copy of phpmyadmin in your directory, you solve the problem without moving.

                Good tip smiley

                We just moved to another hoster, but this problem was not the only reason to move rolleyes Most people will solve their problem by just usen a separate phpmyadmin installation.

                  does anybody has idea how this error occurred?

                  what triggered changes to the SQL table? Could it be just logging into the phpMyAdmin? or logging into the MODx manager by my client who is editing the articles?
                  the problem occured before exporting the table.

                    I think it already happens when you just login into phpMyAdmin...

                      piotrek, it’s a combination of Plesk session and Plesk session for phpmyadmin.
                      But I can’t understand why.
                      If you made a back up from Modx it’s ok
                      If you made a back up from PhpMyAdmin (new installation) it’s ok
                      If you made a back up from PhpMyAdmin installed on Plesk cause this problem
