PHPBB 3.0.4 & PhotoPost PHP Pro 6.2

Well I seem to have a small problem. I can log in to PPP and PHPBB but the software don't see me on each other. First I install PHPBB to get the base line work for the database and set it all up. Noting was done other then installing and testing to see if I can sign in.

Then I sign out upload all files and stuff for PPP 6.2 to the sever and started to install. I used PPP's integration to connect the two software but left everything as default. Log in and out of PPP and can't get get neither of the program to see me log in on the other.

What do you think I could have done wrong?

Thanks

I would suggest you go back through and pay careful attention on how they where installed. Like for example cookies play alot onto things you need to input the correct phpbb cookie name where asked on the photopost install. Your cookies also need to be set site wide.

You do not have a cookie prefix in phpbb3

You have a COOKIE NAME

Thus you need to reinstall and on step 4 specify the correct cookie name of FM

If you login to photopost you will see your cookie name is empty

As above I set all the information as above why will it not work? I mean if it sets it should work? Cause I check and there is a FM in PHPBB and PPP fields.

You are confusing cookie prefix and cookie name.

On install there is a spot on step 4 to enter your cookie name.

Okay you know what your taking about. So can you water it down some more so that it make more sense? Because I have a prefix in both prefix fields from both apps.

This is what I have been saying and I guess your not understanding. It is not a prefix we are talking about. That is a phpbb2 thing. In phpbb3 they have what is known as a cookie name. You must input the cookie name where asked on install. This is on step 4 of install and looks like this in our install script

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

This setting should also be in cookie settings in admin if you can get into admin. We are not looking at the prefix but instead installing and actually inputting the forum cookie name.
