Cookies settings between vBulletin / PhotoPost PHP and Classifieds

[ehmax@ehmac.ca]

I'm running all three on my site at ehMac.ca. A friend helped me setup the software for me. Quite a few members are having some wierd login problems. I've put in a post in the support forums at vBulletin as well.

What should my cookie setting be on all three products? Currently, my friend set up cookie for vBulletin as .ehmac.ca with path as / , for PhotoPost Classifieds as craftsterYaBBxxxxx (Last 5 digits x'd out, as I'm not sure if this is a license number) and for PhotoPost PHP as blank with the cookie path as blank, and prefix is bb.

Sorry if this is a dumb question. I should of setup the software myself as now I'm not sure what's default and what is edited.

It should be the same for all scripts, and below are my recommendations:

Domain Path: /

Domain Cookie: .yourdomainname.com

vBulletin prefix: vb3_
PhotoPost prefix: pp_
PhotoPost Classifieds: ppc_

Based on what your telling me about your vb cookies

photopost products should be

cookie path as /
cookie domain as .ehmac.ca
cookie prefix as bb

Now also note your VB license must be entered where it states to enter the vb license. The crafters thing you meantioned above is only for smf forum users to input there cookie name

I have all the cookie set as suggested, but can NOT log out of the Classifieds. I can log out of VB and PhotoPost, but no classified.

Help!!!

Thanks

It will ask you if you want to log out (just like VB) and then goes to ALL COOKIES CLEARED page. When you select 'return to previous page' or select a link to the classified url you come up as logged in again.

I even tried to log out of VB, close explorer, reopen and check status in VB - confirmed to be logged out. Then I hit a link to the classified url and presto - automatically logged in as myself?

I dont' get it?
