Topic: punbb forum - no auto login

I use vld 2.5.1 I've just installed punbb forum, udpate datebase. When members login to my website are not auto login to forum.... They must login to forum again. What may be the reason?

Re: punbb forum - no auto login

Tell us what your integration settings are and how do you have your site structured. Is vldP in the root and the forum in its own folder? That was the reason why I could not get it to sync properly. vldP needed to be in the root of my site and the forum needed to be in its own folder. Once I got the structure correct, I was able to sync vldP with the forum. The other possibility is that your settings are wrong in your CP for forum integration. What are your settings in the CP?

Re: punbb forum - no auto login

In CP under settings/integration what is your settings. If your settings are correct did you sync your forum -- CP - Utilities - Update Counters - Sync Forum

Relative forum URL          forum/
Relative return URL       ../
Table prefix               punbb_
Database host               localhost
Database name               grzechuf_vldpersonals

My forum's database have all website members. Old members can login to forum. Only problem is that no automatic login to forum after login to website.... ( during login I don't see redirect page to forum)


I installed for testing punbb and vld 2.5.1 on another server and it is the some mistake. Phpbb2, vanilla worked corectly.....

@ db3204

I didn't change anything on any setting in my website, all works fine with 2.4.X but since i upgraded 2.5.X.. it just dont auto login anymore.

This is very strange tho..

Re: punbb forum - no auto login

I don't know why people are having problems. I'm not having any problems but I did a fresh install. Maybe only those who did an upgrade are having problems. Maybe vlad will have to help.

Re: punbb forum - no auto login

Hello friends.
In VLD 2.5.1, I have the same problems as you.
My installation is fresh and it is vanilla forum I use. Everything is set korekt in cp and members is registered in the forum, but are not logged in automatically. Are there any of you who had solved the problem? If yes - will please write it here then, we are a part which has not yet solved the problem; 0) I will be grateful and hope we all get it resolved.
Many sunny greetings from Eva

Re: punbb forum - no auto login

Evapige...I use Vanilla. Maybe this will help

Step 1

Install your database in its own folder. In this example I installed it in a folder called forum. VldP is installed in the root.



Step 2

Set Forum Integration Settings  in CP (I use vanilla forum)


Relative forum URL:     forum/

Relative return URL:     ../

Table prefix:        LUM_

Database host:        localhost

Database name        type the name of  sql database you created here - goodtime_forum
   
Database username     type the username  for the  sql database you created - goodtime_forum
   
Database password     type the password you assigned to the database you created


NOTE: if you do not know how to properly display your database's name and username, please contact your host (in some cases you have to put your host's username before the name of the database and the username assigned to that database -- i.e. goodtime_forum). Goodtime is my host username and forum is the database name. 


Step 3

In CP Syn your database

Utilities - Update Counters - Synchronize third party member database


That is it. Here are images to show it works

Re: punbb forum - no auto login

There's been a slight issue in punbb login module which wouldn't log you in unless you logged in directly to punbb at least once. It's now fixed (note that existing members will still need to login to pubb at least once).

Re: punbb forum - no auto login

Dear db3204
Thanks for your response to me, unfortunately, it dosent helps me because I have done as you describe, and it will still not work. I installed vanilla 7 times now and performed all steps all 7 times. My members are registered in vanilla, they are just not logged in automatically. Hmm maybe I should move the database. Has the vanilla in the same database as VLD. That I just try and come back to tell you how it went. Huge hug from here and many thanks for your help. You are a wonderful man ; 0) Ps Nice imagen you maket for me ;0) You are super.

Re: punbb forum - no auto login

Hi db3204 my friend.
I install it all over and put vanilla in its owen database.

I am really getting tired of this. I get blank stare when I have spent several days on it.
Here is what I have done.

downloaded all new vanilla files "zip"  on their website.
uploaded all files in a folder called Forum. #Got vld in rod
Then Indstalled it on the server.
Created in vanilla cp.
Select group:   Vanilla 
Enable: Vanilla    Ja = yes 
Relative forum URL: Forum/   
Relative return URL:   ../   
Table prefix:     LUM_   
Database host:  mysql1049.servage.net   
Database name:    dhsforum
Database username:  dhsforum   
Database password: *********

Then I Update Counters - Synchronize third party member database.
After I go to my website and log in
Then i go to http://www.dyrehimlen.dk/Forum/
But i am not loggede in.

In Vanilla under Registration Settings I set it to: New member role : DH-Medlem "members in english"

Pleas help my. Getting frustrated ;0)
Hugs from Eva

Re: punbb forum - no auto login

Evapige

I wish I knew why. My only other suggestion is to download the latest module frolder from vld site and upload. I think there was a bug at one time and maybe you still have the older files.

Your module folder is under includes/modules. I would download a new copy of vldP and upload the module folder to your server to see if that fixes the problem. I hope so. smile

p.s. I just now saw your reply to my post....sorry I did not see earlier.

Re: punbb forum - no auto login

Just redownload the software and replace your files in 'includes/modules' folder with new ones.

Re: punbb forum - no auto login

The only place I can download software is from my download area in my account. I would do this.

1. download the latest version of vldPersonals (full version).

2. once it is downloaded, unzip the file.

3. in the unzip file you will see a folder called includes. In the includes folder, you will see a folder called modules. The module folder contains all the mods for the forums. I would upload the latest modules folder to my server. Make sure you upload it to the includes folder.

Foutchy....since this is your first post, I'm guessing you recently downloaded vldP. It would seem you have the latest version with fixes, but not sure.
