Yeah as long as cpaccess has a 1 and the admin groupid is 6 modaccess should not make a difference at all

Not sure why it's now working then. Here's where I'm at - if I'm logged in on the Forums (vb3.03), I can click over to the gallery and not be logged in. However, at least now, when I click the Login or Admin link, it recognizes my username/password. But shouldn't it automatically know that I'm logged in via the forums? It works that way on my other site, and I've used ALL of the same cookie settings as on my other working site.

And let me emphasize that ALL 3 cookie settings are set the same in vb3 and PP. Cookie path is / the cookie domain is blank, and I'm using "wbb" as my cookie prefix. I had the prefix left blank in both scripts, but that didn't work either.

Is there any chance it could be a server configuration issue?

You need to check your cookie settings and make sure the vb license number is entered in the photopost config

Let me see if I got this right - my vb license number is entered correctly, my cookie path is entered the same in both scripts, my cookie prefix is entered the same in both scripts, my cookie domain is blank in both scripts.

What other cookie settings are there?

You can PM me a admin login to look things over but everything your saying even though I hear your saying it is right points to something being set wrong in the cookie settings

Have you viewed both the cookies set by both programs and seen the differences?

How do you do this?

I would recommend SETTING the domain in both programs. We've seen cases in the past where both were not set, and vb would set one thing and PP would set something different.

Set a domain, logout, login and see what happens.

No need, I think I figured it out. After reading through the "converter.php" thread, something was brought up that I hadn't bothered to check. I run three sites with 3 vb licenses. However, I usually just download vb updates once and use them for all three sites because of the hacking that I do. Well, apparently vb writes in the license number in the header of almost every file. I went in and changed out the license number for the correct one for the site I'm using it on and reuploaded all of the files. It seems that this is what was causing the problem. I know this is not going to be a common problem for most since many people only run one site, but it might be worth touching on in some faq somewhere.
