Custom page login issue

It could be the cookies aren't being sent. What do you have for Settings > Options > Cookies and HTTP Header Options > Path to Save Cookies? But if you're logging in from your custom page and the cookie path is wrong, I don't know how you'd be logged in on other forum pages.

Path to Save Cookies: forum
(from the dropdown menu)
should I do something in "Custom Setting"

my custom page has no directory/folder

You could try choosing '/' from the dropdown menu, as long as you aren't running 2 forums from the same domain name.

Well, so far I've found it's supposed to read your userid cookie on line 647 of includes/init.php. From there it should get all your userinfo.

I don't know how to test if it's got a problem reading the cookie
