You can try to use vBulletin's built in template search/replace system but it has always failed to get all the templates updated for me. Also doing it with replacements would be useless because you would still have to update all the templates with links in them for it to work.

worked thanks :)

yeah i ment the search replace thingy lol

also your step 2 m8

do i change all $session[sessionhash] that i find ???

or just the ones in links ??? just under your step 2

ie

?s=$session[sessionhash]

and

?s=$session[sessionhash]&

ok i have this in one of my templates .. if you tell me what to do with that then i am sure i can work it out :)

<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]">

i dunno what to do with that ???

sorry i can be a right donut sometimes :(

IMO the best way to do it would be with a preg_replace in the dovars() function that would remove all instatnces of:

• ?s=
• &s=
• amp;s=

when the condition used in the hack is true, not fool proof, but easier then editing all the templates.

AL:

I have noticed on my board that the sessionhash numbers are removed anyway without having to remove anything from the templates.

Great hack.

worked great thanks

Parker...

When I use this wihtout mods to the templates and I have my profile set to use cookies (Thus no session #'s), it STILL uses session numbers. Without the hack installed it does not use session numbers. Does the same on your site.

So, not sure why, but it does not seem right in this case.

I didn't have the problem with the session numbers showing up when I used the automatically log in turned on but had the browse this board with cookies turned off. So with that option turned on the sessionhash number aren't getting removed.

Parker

definetly doesn't work for me.

with this hack, it gives a hash and the s=, w/o it, just the s=.

Did you do the required modification to your templates has noted in post #1 of this thread?
