Simple question... If I have multiple domain names. How do I get cookies to work with all. Separate with commas or what in the admin panel. I know,whats really embarrasing is how long I been running my board and dont know that one :p

Leave that cookie entry blank.

Note that separate cookies are needed for each domain. No way around that I don't think.

Don't think so, either, as cookes were designed to be per-domain-only for security reasons.

Ahh thanks thats what I was affraid of. I went an checked and its blank. The styles that contain the default addy info is what limits cross doimaining . I think this is what I really ment to ask. "The default setup URL".
How would the links translate etc. ;) to alternate with the domain.
I think I explained this right. :confused: :)

Template URLs are relative - so if different domains resolve to the same server, links will reflect those domains.

about the cookies, plz slove me this:
i set blank in the options "Cookie Domain" and "Path to save cookies" , after that, my members got trouble due to when they logged in, it's ok, but right after that, they open any thread they wanted and be logged out ( the board asked them to login again or show no thread ).
Is that about the cookies ? I need advice

If you change cookie domains and paths, your members will get corrupted cookies - your members must delete their cookie to your forum manually, and login again.

so if I leave blank the "Cookie Domain" and "Path to save cookies", then the cookies for my users to browse forums will be ok ?

You can leave cookie domain blank, and path to save cookies as /

Then get your member to manually delete your forum cookie in their browser, and log in again.
