Vbulletin 3 DOesnt work well when your site has 2 urls.

[VeoMorphine]

Hello!
I have 2 URLs on my site. Http://www.wowforge.net is my defalt that i have set in the vb options, then i have www.wowforge.com.

If somone trys to sign in on the .com, it only logs them in on the .net and sends them back to the .com site. So it looks like they didnt log in.

I looked for all the bburl varibles and replaced them with /forum/ (which fixed alot allready), but, the login box still sends me to .net. Where can i change this so it points to /forums/ insted of .net?

Couldn't you just set the .com as a redirect to the .net? Solves the problem outright..

its a known issue, i figure you could probally use a check for the domain over ride Forum URL and that would probally solve most of the issue right there

i figure somthing like

if (domain == .com)
{$forumurl = .com}
else
{$forumurl = .net}

while thats not how to do it i think somthing liek that could be implimented / used

Well, I use at least 7 different domains (different country codes) for my site, all A mapped at the DNS level to the IP address of my server - and vB3 works wonderfully.

This is the best solution if you ask me.

Additional domains for one site should all be redirects, not equally-working url's. Having multiple domain-identities takes away from the power of your site's own identity, and also how well it sticks to people's memories (as far as that aspect goes, of course).
