Help with auto login launch of messages
 

We have vBulletin setup in a forums folder and we have a CMS frontend that ties into the vbulletin for login and user info. When a message suchas don't have permissions or force to password reset is displayed while in the forums location everything works fine. When I login or use the cookie reentry from the from the CMS page, this messages get messed up completely in all relations to URL path. The VBulletin settings are set the correct values.

I can I force these messages to be launched from the site/forum location?

Goto www.xiledgaming.com/forum and login with XGC Dragon XI password dragon. You should see a vBulletin Message for permissions. Then click on the Home button located on the top nav bar. You will see what I am talking about. When you look at the URL it is missing the forums as this should have been the same. If the user logins in and nothing needs to be displayed then it needs to route where it currently goes.

It not the style sheets that is the problem. Its the sequence of events. For example if you login to the homepage with an incorrect login and password, it redirects you back to the /forum directory and displays the message appropriately. But if I am already logged in and I go to the home page or on redirect, something does a check then launches the messages. What I need to know is what does that check and where is it, so I can redirect the correct path to launch the message. The problem is that the messages are being launched from two locations when they should only be launched from the /forum folder.

Where is the exact location this is happening and how can I force it to launch in the /forum folder?

Thanks,

Since the first part cannot be answered, lets take a new direction that would help me troubleshoot my problem. The answer to the following question could help.

When a user logins in or accesses the site with a cookie, what file or process checks the user's validity for vBulletin when they first hit the site?
