When a user playes the game and the game ends it goes to a screen where the user can submit their score but it doesnt show them as logged in.

Any ideas?

Is this happening with all users, and all games, or just one? If all users and games, then I'd say the definition of what is "forumhome" is is incorrect - do you have a CMPS like vBAdvance? vBAdvance can rename or redirect the normal "index.php", making the path that's specified in the flash game invalid, like this example:on (release)
{
var gname = "raidenx";
var gscore = _root.score;
getURL("index.php?act=Arcade&do=newscore", "_self", "POST");
}So, you need to change the names of each the forum home, and the portal home. (This process is outlined in the accompanying readme in the download).

If it's only happening to one user or on one game, it may be from the users session actually timing out - either make sure that when the user logs in they check the little box that says "Remember Me", or you can try "upping" the default vBulletin 900 second time-out to something higher (note that this will affect how long a user is shown as being "Currently Active", when, in fact, they've been gone for quite a while.

The third option is to wait a few days until MrZeropage releases v2.5.5+ of ibProArcade - he's said that the "time-out" issue has been addressed in this upcoming release. I don't know when, but I'm thinking it should be released soon since MrZeropage has been "incommudicado" for the last few days... :p

I guess your index.php is not the original one from vBulletin anymore but the portal.
Make sure to read the included INFO - vbadvanced portal.txt :)
