Hey there

I have a small.. or big problem right now! I have a php site which has nothing to do with vBulletin, and also isnt wordpress or any know CMS. just think of a single index.php file!

ok now I wanted to have a login box on it, which is connected to vBulletin. User should be able to login "outside" of the forum and see the # of PMs and stuff, on any page outside of the forum itself.

so I googled around a bit and found this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=228089

I took a look at the script and decided to only cut out the part I needed myself! i had some strange problems with including global.php (it messed up my layout!!! only god knows why!), so I googled again and found this: http://ragtek.org/blog/vbulletin/aja...das-vbulletin/

now I have the login box from the first script and I am using init.php instead of global.php from the 2nd script!

this is my current header of the index.php

    #VBULLETIN INCLUDES
    $curdir = getcwd();
    chdir($curdir.'/forum');
    define("THIS_SCRIPT", 'p3iAjax');
    define("VB_AREA", 'p3iAjax');
    #require_once("forum/global.php");
    require_once("forum/includes/init.php");
    global $vbulletin, $session, $vbphrase;

alright, its working 95% now. I am able to login on the index page, after the vB page that shows me the successfully login, I get redirected to the index page again. I see my avatar and some other things I built in like the # of PMs... so this all is happening on domain.tld !

now the problem.... when I go to domain.tld/?test for example, I see the login box again, even tho im still logged in when going to domain.tld or domain.tld/forum/

I took a look at the instructions of the first addon (the login box) and it said I have to take care of a couple of vB settings... which I did. these are the current settings:

#Cookie Path
Recommended Settings => /
Custom etting => leer

#Cookie Domain
Recommended Settings => leer
Custom Setting => .domain.tld

so... does anybody have a clue what the problem is? do I have to use something special to be logged in on every page of the site? maybe sessions or so? im not using them right now, I thought just the vBulletin cookie is enough for this...

I appreciate any help on this!

thanks!
