SMF 2.0.16. was released a couple of days ago, and it changes how the Cookie works - which breaks the bridge (with my 1.5.48 anyway).
The developers have posted this information about it :- https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=570989
Thanks for any assistance with this - I'm a bit stuck currently.
			
			
			
				Replace the CPG 1.5.48 SMF20 bridge file with the attached (as .php)
Backwards compatible with SMF2.0.x versions prior to 2.0.16

				Just two years later - thank you also from my side. Did the trick also on a completely outdated installation which I had to care of recently.
