That could be any number of things. How many products use your init_startup hook?

These do:

vBSEO
vBadvanced CMPS
Set automatic forumlanguage to browserlanguage
vBulletin Project Tools
gXboxLive

I have been trying to get 2 domains to use the same config.php so that users can access the same forums from multiple domains. I have added the "non primary" domains to the vbulletin options POST referrer white list and can login and send pms from any non primary domain, but when i try to create a thread or post I get a white screen. Any ideas?

I installed this on 3.8.1

It works except I need to tick remember me now for logins to work

Does anyone know how to fix that?

[lostincable]

Anyone help with this?

[thincom2000]

Try the build I just uploaded.

Thanks for the update!

Tried it out and its as if the product is not running, I enabled debug mode and I do not get the messages down the bottom and it logs in and out as normal.

Logins are not shared as well.

I remember from the original version you had to manually update the template, can you verify which one it is so I can see if the install updated the template?

[lostincable]

Just an update, tried logging in to both sites and then logging out of one.

Logging out of one logs you out of both.

Still no login across the board but logout works, not sure if that helps?

Is this with "Remember Me?" checked or unchecked?

EDIT: Nevermind. There are no more template edits. I did some further work on this and think I got it all working, remember me and all. Will do another quick release in the morning.

It seems the 1.22 version is not setting the cookie on login regardless of wether remember me is checked or not.

I enabled debug and I only get the cookie has been generated message on logout not login.

Hope that helps!
