I don't understand what could be wrong with my paths. I've checked them again and again. If they were wrong, wouldn't the whole thing not work at all? It works fine if the test.php file is in the forum directory, otherwise, no go, even subdirectories of the forum directory don't work.
When it works, I get the vBulletin logo linking to main forum page in the topleft corner of the login box screen. When it doesn't work because it is in another directory, instead of the vBulletin logo, I simply get a text link to my main forum page.
This is running on a fedora system. Is there anything that can be wrong besides the path? I have the
https://www.myforum.site/forum in my login_inc.php, which is included in my httpsroot directory. That paths in the test.php file are completely accurate as well. This is killing me. I was just gonna install the software I needed into the forum directory but that would be chaos and there are some overlapping files. :disappointed:
