Session (cookie) issues with some, not all?

South Fork · March 30th, 2012, 04:08 PM

PP cookies: .mydomain.com
XenForo: www.mydomain.com

Login on PP and you're signed in on PP but not xF
Login on xF and you're signed in on PP & xF
Logout on PP and it does NOT log you out of either.
Logout on xF and you're logged out with both.

To make it worse, some (not all) can't login on either PP or xF and then be logged in on PP.

Your forum and gallery cookie domains are not the same which is why they are not aligned.

I removed your gallery cookie domain and now login and logout create and delete cookies.

Not a problem glad to help. Cookies must be exact in both apps for things to be right. I believe in xenforo the cookie settings are in there config file but not sure. That is why I cleared the gallery domain to match the forum.

fyi - No, they aren't in the XF config. Not the domain settings for the cookie anyway. Hadn't considered removing the domain setting all together from the PP cookie setting so you saved my butt on that. In other words, I no longer have 20-30 guys bitching about their PP access so I'll be raising a glass to you for that. ;-)

Interesting the config.php file in my library subdirectory has this
