Logged into Classfieds, but not VB4?

[Badger]

Hi Chuck ..

Not sure if this is a "bug", or an integration issue, but here goes...

I can't explain this one, except to wonder if perhaps the Admin screen as installed and says "vb3" should say "vb4"?

You'll notice from the pics that I'm NOT logged into vb4 (unregistered), yet when I select the Classifieds area and go to it, it welcomes me and shows me logged in as registered user name "Badger".

I don't understand how it can do this? Shouldn't I also be treated as an unregistered user when I click on link that simply says:

http://www.xxxx.com/pp-classifieds/

xxx's to protect privacy…

Thanks …

Regards,
Doug

Cookies and Login Problems!!

Probally just a cookie issue or your not listing the correct vb license number where asked in the config

Well, field in CONFIG-INC.PHP Variables says:

VB3 License Number (if using VB3 integration, you must enter your license number here):

So, I entered by vb4 license number here.. correct?

I left the cookies thingy "blank"... see pic .. as I had no idea what to put in there if anything, or even where to look to find out ...

The cookie FAQ above should explain how to set cookies in both products.

yes your license number NOT customer number goes there

I think that's got it Chuck ....

devforum and live forum cookie prefixes are different ....

I'll do some testing and let you know if it doesn't ...

Thanks ..

Not a problem

Cookies are usually set like this

cookie path /

cookie prefix bb ( in vb config file )

cookie domain .yoursite.com ( note the dot yoursite.com because that makes the cookie readable over your entire site both apps need to be set like this )

when using vb I can not stress enough that the license number needs to be exact in our config since its used in the password hash for the user not the customer number thats a real common mistake users make. the vb license is the one in the top of the files not the one you sign into vb with.

I have like the same problem.

vbulletin login works with classified login correctly, and also logout from vbulletin log out from classified.

But classified login box doesnt log me in to vbulletin. What could that be?

License number set, cookie domain set as regards all the post from this forum.

[Chuck S]

feel free to post a url and login so we can test

[Simka]

Content visible to verified customers only.

I havent set cookie domain to .domain.com as then I cant login to vbulletin, but both are on same domain so that shouldnt be the problem.

[Chuck S]

your posting conflicting info

One post your telling me you cant login to classifieds next your saying you cant login to vb

at any rate your site has modified code and is not the normal classifieds display so please upload clean proper files so I may assist you.

I am not conflicting.

Just said, that if I set cookie path to .domain.com - then - i can not login to vbulletin :-)

I dont thing cookie path is needed, as both vb and ppc is installed on same domain.

[Simka]

Instead of fixing the classified login, how do I just remove the Classified login box?

I dont see it is needed when it is integrated into a vbulletin, or am I missing something?

www.yoursite.com and yoursite.com are two different domains as far as cookies are concerned. The cookie thread I linked explains this. setting your cookies to .yoursite.com make them readable across all subdomains.

Your classifieds has been modified hense my comment because support is provided on the code we release. I can login to your forum or your classifieds with the login you posted.

Your issue is they are installed on different domains.

You need to set cookies to .yoursite.com in both applications and clear cookies in your browser then try logging in again.

Do you know how that would have happened, I havent done anything different than uploading same way as when vb was installed. How can it be 2 different domain then?

Yes login works both places, but if you login to classified, you didnt get logged in to vbulletin, right?

If I do that, then I cant login to admincp in vbulletin, and when I tested, it still didnt work with login, I still had to double login.

Problem is only when I login to classified first.

Simka I own vb4 suite and have my cookies setup as noted in the cookie thread it works fine and you will be logged into both applications.

Your forum seems to be yoursite.com and your classifieds installed on www.yoursite.com
thats why your logins are separate.

The only answer I have is what is in the cookie thread so feel free to email us admin login. if you truly clear cookies in your browser after making any change the cookies will be fine.
