OK, I have my main forum on my domain. I use VBa as my index page. things work great.

I have my test boards on a subdomain that I created.

How do I setup my cookies so I can be logged onto both at the same time? Originally when I set it up I had to completely log out and clear my vb cookie to get my logged onto my test board. Now I actually just *can't* log onto my test board and I'll have to just wipe it and reinstall everything. (no biggie, I didn't do anything with it yet). I can log on, it says logging in, and then just prompts me to log back in again. At one point I had 1 member logged in and 24 guests (the failed logins I guess as they were all my IP).

Any help with setting this up (I'm familiar with the VB Cookie settings but obviously not well enough to fix this little problem :) ) would be appreciated.

did you try
vBulletin Options/Cookies and HTTP Header Options /Cookie Domain
set your test board as yourdomain2.com ?
that may work .

have my main forum setup as that I believe. I'm kinda weary for messing around with the cookies on the main forum for obvious reasons. :D

I'll look into, after I reinstall my test forum, changing it to that. I tried a few things but it's been a month (as you can see this is a *highly* pressing issue .. LOL ... ) so I kinda forget. I'll play around with it some more.
