Just went through it all again the next day fresh and still need login. I'm not an expert and haven't found similar problems searching the forums. Is there something simple I'm missing perhaps?

The app is working great, it's just the login issue. :ermm:

same here, but I am sure it is just me

UPDATE: I tried it from my wife's computer and it worked as advertised, so I think it has something to do with cookie prefs, or security setting or something

I had 10 members try and it asked them all to log in

I believe you - I am just reporting my findings

If it's set-up correctly then it works. Get someone who understands it to check your installations out for you.


(and no, I don't work for, or have any links with tufat, I just use flashchat).

I agree- if you let Veronica at the tufat forum check out your setup she can get it tweaked for you (if you ask nicely )

Hi there. My problem is the same. An d I?ve integrated many Hacks into my board and I checked this installation a couple of times.
The hint one of the users on the board there gave me was: Hi Thoki: This was designed for version 3.03 so to make this work you will need to look at the vBulletinCMS.php file. Look at the code that is used to authenticate users on this file and compair it to you database. Ususally changing or adding some variable names fixes it. This is the only file you would have to edit to make this work with your board.
But IMHO there was no change in these variables? The test.php which came with the flashchat gave me the correct answers:
User id: 7
User info:

Array
(
[id] => 7
[login] => just me :-)
[usergroupid] => 6
[roles] => 2
)


Is user: false
Is admin: true

So, I?m confused where to search....

Do you use a custom prefix for your cookies (instead of 'bb') - this is the most likely cause.

[Thoki]

No, I don´t use a prefix for my cookies in my settings.

ok, you were right. My answer was too fast. Right from the late past, my prefix was "pt". I resetted it now to "bb", but then I got only the background picture. I cleared cookies and cache before.
But that must be the way. Thanks in advance!
