I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and XXX:
[error message here]

Coppermine install: http://gfxcube.net/renders
Forum install: http://gfxcube.net/forum
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.2
Forum version: Vbulletion

BridgeManager settings:
Forum URL:  http://gfxcube.net/forum
Relative path to your BBS's config file:  ../bb/  
Use post-based groups?:  0
Cookie name/preifx (if applicable)

I changed the cookie settings on my forums to fix a log in issue. These changes must be made or users can not log into www.

With them made users can no longer log into coppermine

Pic below of forum cookie settings, help?

Cookie path has to be '/'.

haha don't expect people here to be able to read. Let me say it again

I cant change the cookie setting on the forum, it is fixing a login issue.

Mk, alternative to fix coppermine would be?

You can't 'fix' Coppermine to work with the cookie path set like that. If you set your forum's cookie to only be readable from inside /forum then Coppermine never gets to see them. The issue about logins from www.gfxcube.net is solved by setting the cookie domain to .gfxcube.net as you have done. The path setting is not a part of this fix and can be safely changed without breaking logins (assuming you only have one forum on the domain). Even the screenshot you posted says that it is ok to have the path set as '/'. When you change the cookie path you must then clear your cookies in your web browser and login again. If you fail to clear your cookies after changing cookie settings then you will have login issues.

Remarks like that should only be posted by people who really know their way around. You don't appear to fall into that category, as you don't know how cookies work in your browser, how they have been designed in the first place. I'm not talking about coppermine's cookies - I'm talking about cookies in general - how they work in the first place in the www. If that bothers you, blame the people who wrote the initial cookie specifications (RFCs). If you want actual support, review your attitude, it stinks!

You don't seem to be a lot of a reader - you failed to read board rules and posting rules, as they clearly say that you mustn't hotlink images/screenshots, but attach them. I attached the hotlinked screenshot from your initial posting to this reply.
