Logging out - if I remove www

Hi all,

If I login with my user name & password at my vB forum - http://www.testwebsite.com/forum then it's fine.

Then if I remove www from above URL - http://testwebsite.com/forum , the login does not stay. It logs out automatically. I need to relogin.

Did I mess up any settings (like cookies) ?

There have been plenty of threads on this over the times. Just redirect all traffic from one to the other. Search "yes-www" or "no-www" on Google. The cookies will stick on the domain you entered as the forum URL. Alternatively, you can set the cookie domain to .domain.com (not 100% sure if this will work in all cases).

I tried it. Did not work.

I am trying the htaccess rule to redirect traffic to www.

I use this in my .htaccess

Quote:

Code:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.yourdomain\.com

RewriteRule (.*) http://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

I have read about this many times here as well...I removed www from my site url & forum url via admincp, I also have many custom links in my navbar & removed all www from each link that were for my site.

I then informed my members to edit their short cut to the site from their desk top & remove www from it....No problems from that point.

You may need to log out and log back in for it to take effect.

I can almost guarantee you that this will work.

It is not a bug in vBulletin. It is part of the security of cookies. Just redirect all traffic to one or the other and the "problem" is gone.

Have you tried the mod_rewrite rule solution?

Problem Solved with REDIRECT.

Code:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www

RewriteRule (.*) http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,R]

Yes, you put it into the .htaccess file in the web root directory (public_html).

Yes, Just paste the code at the start of your .htaccess file.
