Integration with IPB 1.3. Need some help please.

[Omeba]

 
  I have integrated My IPB v1.3 final with CPG. Something is not quite right and I would definitely appreciate any pointers in getting going in the right direction.   I have done my homework and have spent probably 12 hours over the last three days searching and reading before posting this, and if I have missed a previous post on this, I apologize.

 My issue is as follows. From my forum you can click on the gallery link and it does take you to the front page of the gallery, but the gallery does not recognize that the person is logged in on the forum, and although you are logged in,  the gallery shows you as not logged in. You can take the link back to the forum and you are still logged in there.

 Any help is greatly appreciated.

That looks wrong to me. Seems like your cookie prefix is actually blank, so

Code Select Expand

// The prefix for the Invision Board cookies
define('IB_COOKIE_PREFIX', ''); // The prefix used for board cookies

  Thank You for responding Nibbler. I did as stated, resetting that cookie to blank, exactly as you show. What I get when I do that is,... no matter who is logged in on the forum, whether it be a admin,member or even as guest, when you click on the link to the gallery,or even the url directly to the gallery, the gallery is logged in as my admin screen name. clicking log out on the gallery gives a blank page.

I did change this cookie to just a "/"  for the time being so that I don't have everyone logging in on the gallery as admin.  Again any help with this is greatly appreciated.

 Thank You
