My guess: you've created your own theme, but in the membership boxes you've put a relative or even full url, instead of the macros for the sign up and login urls.

Look in config root, in the manila table, in the themes, in myTheme

config.manila.themes.myTheme.appearance.membersBoxTemplates.signInBox and its partner signOutBox

In there, you'll see a link written like this:

<a href="http://manila.unl.edu/member/signIn">Join Now</a><br>

<a href="http://manila.unl.edu/member/logIn">Login</a>

when it should be:

<a href="&123;joinNowUrl}">Join Now</a><br>

<a href="&123;loginUrl}">Login</a>

Make the changes to the two string, wps or however they're stored, as above. Export the table config.manila.themes.myTheme to over-write (so change the name) the .fttb in C:\Frontier\Guest Databases\ops\themes\myThem.fttb

Otherwise your change won't 'stick.' And next time Manila checks the stored (.fttbs) themes will import the old one, over-writing your fixed one.

Then, toggle the them on and off (switch to another theme, then back to your original theme) on each site with the screwy memberboxes.
