ssi_login(); issues

[Substance]

Hey SMF,

I seem to have issues with ssi_login();

Look here: http://www.monolithgaming.com, when I login it takes me to http://www.monolithgaming.com/forum which is incorrect. Also when I click the link back to my main page it logs me out? Session issue I think, any ideas?

Edit: Problem seems to be with linking back to the main site from the forum. Every time I click the very top link + Go to Main Site + it logs me out of SMF. Is there a way to link to the main site while keeping your session?

Can we see some code and a test account?

Forum index.indextemplate.php (link from board to main page)

Code Select Expand


...
<div id="topnav"><p class="nav"><a href="http://www.monolithgaming.com">+ Go to Main Site +</a></p></div>
...


When I click that link ( "+ Go to Main Site +" ) on the forums index, it removes my session and logs me out... BUT if I manually go to the address bar, and just remove "/forum/..." from the link and hit enter, I go to the main site index.php and it keeps my session.

Sorry for the delay, it might be due to the edit in Index.template.php, mind attaching that file?

Heres the index.template.php

[Substance]

Here n3rve, I've attached my theme. I based it off of orange-lt119v2 (credited in the settings file). I believe I changed up the "boardindex.template.php" since originally installing it. I've attached the one directly from my server.

Edit: Downloaded

Are you including SSI.php at the very first line after the opening tag in Index.php?

-[n3rve]

[Substance]

My main sites index.php is including it, yes.

[N3RVE]

I've looked though everything, made changes and tested on different setups and everything works as it should provided SSI.php is included at the very first line. I made all the changes in your post, including the modification to the ssi_login function and everything works, I retain the session, weird

[Substance]

So nothing?

Do I have to include SSI.php in my forum index? I'd think not, but ya never know...

[N3RVE]

SSI.php only has to be included in your main site's Index.php file.

Are local cookies enabled or disabled?

Are local cookies enabled or disabled?

Enable local storage of cookies is not checked.
Use subdomain independent cookies is not checked.

[Arantor]

Unless you have a strong reason not to, enable subdomain independent cookies.

[Substance]

That fixed it.

I'm an idiot, and you're a god among insects, thank you!
