Subdomains CPG and YaBBSE

[futon]

I'm trying to move my recently installed CPG / YaBBSE 1.5.4 bridged gallery from http://www.foo.com/gallery  to  http://gallery.foo.com

The problem is that the pics and links look fine but CPG thinks I am a guest and only offers "Login". I login and go back and it still thinks I'm a guest.

Any suggestions how to force the subdomain to be recognised please ?

Thanks

Try clearing your browser's cookies and be sure that yabbse and coppermine have different cookie names.

Hi zarsky99,

Thanks for the suggestion.

I tried it but it still doesn't recognise me when I go to the subdomain, I just get "Login" whic then takes me back to YaBBSE.
The cookies definitely different.

Is there a settings file that would dictate the url of the gallery ?

if I remember it correctly there have been cookie issues related to subdomains with yabbse - please search the yabbse board...
I've experienced problems with this as well in the past, and I've decided for myself: although subdomains have some advantages (search engine friendliness etc.) their usage sucks because of cookie issues with several pre-written scripts (e.g. cpg and yabbse), so I don't use them.

Hi gaugau,

Thanks for the reply.
I already have that covered. I previously installed a mod on the forum that makes the cookie for YaBBSE global but I will have a chat with the guys at YaBBSE and see if they can throw any light on the problem.

Thanks again
