Setting a cookie with the username

[eljeffe]

I found the thread that discussed what was needed to set a cookie that contained the username. But I tried it, and couldn't get it to work.

Here is the snippet of code that I added in the login.php (in two places):

PHP Code:

vbsetcookie('userid', $bbuserinfo['userid'], 0);
vbsetcookie('password', md5($bbuserinfo['password'] . 'L45537ea'), 0);
vbsetcookie('username', $bbuserinfo['username'] ); 


^^^^ This is the set cookie line of code recommended in the earlier thread.

I've made this change, and no username cookie shows up.

Any ideas?
