Navbar links + login invalid when vB/PP or both are closed/inactive
 

- PP Pro version 6.1
- vB version 3.7
- Default cookie prefix and domains, and neither scripts have been modified
- I am sure cookie paths and such are set correctly
- This bug is found with vB and PP integration, and is probably found in other integrations as well.

When either PP or vB is set to 'closed' or not 'active', the navbar links and the login box on the PP side change to the domain of that of the installation. This also happens when both scripts are 'closed':

For example when both scripts are online or 'open', a navbar link on the PP side would be: http://domain.com/forum/usercp.php to access the vB installation's User CP. This would be correct and it works. (This example uses /forum for the vB installation)

However, when either or both scripts are 'closed', the navbar links on the PP side change to: http://domain.com/gallery/usercp.php which, of course, does not exist. (This example uses /gallery for the PP installation)

This also is the case with the login box on the PP side. If either or both vB and PP are 'closed', it becomes impossible to log in to PP unless it is done on the forum side.

The cookies themselves seem to work site-wide still, regardless of either vB or PP being turned off.

Nevermind... I found a couple more threads about the same problem.

However, I also forgot to add that the template I am using is a professional one which I bought. It is a professional skin by eXtremepixels. It was unmodified by me and no 3rd party hacks were installed.

Since many, if not all of the professional skins out there use relative links, would it be too much to ask to fix this somehow?

Not really; there is only so much we can do with a third-parties code.
