This is my situation. I installed the Simple -version on my forum and it was working perfectly. No problems what-so-ever, things were going as smooth as I could hope.
Then I decided to setup a test forum, and proceeded by creating a testvb folder, protected it with htaccess and installed the test forum along with the Simple login extension. This is where the problems begun.
According to vB instructions, the 'Path to Save Cookies' setting (Cookies and HTTP Header options) must be set to the directory of individual forums, if one runs more than one forum on the same domain. In my case, this meant that I set the path on my live forum to '/forums/' and on my test forums to '/testvb/forums/'.
This, of course, meant that the Simple login extension stopped working on my live forums since the 'Path to Save Cookies' setting should be set to '/'. If, on the other hand, I leave the live forums setting to '/', then I am not able to log on to my test forums at all, while the extension works perfectly on the live forums.
Does anyone see a way around this problem, or am I just out of luck. Is it possible to use this extension simultaneously and successfully on test forum thats running on the same domain with the 'live forum'.
