Different cookie for AdminCP
Some years ago, when I first started using vB, I got frustrated from the fact that every time I logged out from the forums, I also got logged out from adminCP and vice versa. So I requested some help for that and another old timer, Nexialys, was good enough to come up with a two-lines code that you added in your init.php and did that. It created a different cookie prefix for AdminCP, so all was well.
Nexialys approach was very elegant and simple. It added a different cookie prefix, if you were in AdminCP than if you were in the Forums.
Unfortunately, being an old dog, I didn't follow up the development of vB, I had a hard time getting in grips with the coding scheme they developped after release 3.5. But now, I had just created a new site and I need that same functionality. I know I can use a different browser to avoid the problem, but I do not want to do that. All I want is to have separate cookies for AdminCP and for the Forums, so that when I log out of the one, it doesn't also log me out of the other. The current init.php is totally different than the old one used in vB 3.0 that I can work on. So.....
Can someone help me with this? Can someone come up with a way to have a different cookie prefix for admincp than for the forums?
Needless to say, your help will be greatly appreciated.
