sharing a memberlist phpbb...


I have followed this kb article:

http://www.phpbb.com/kb/article.php?article_id=55

but it dosen't seem to work for seperate domains (on the same hosting package though). How would I make it compatible across several domains?

Thanks
Tom

I want to set up a network of forums (running off phpbb) that share the member list. So basically, in the end it just looks like one big forum, but many sites. sorta...

lol

Anyway... if I am logged in on one of the sites, im not logged in on anotehr one, if that makes sense.

i think it may be a cookie problem (?)

Hm
The process described in the phpBB thread just can't work as you want it to work, because it uses the same Cookie for all shared forums.

I suggest you ask there, at the roots.

I have a similar problem...

http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic...er=asc&start=0

I have followed the above tut for mutiple forums with one user database, it all works but as the tut said:
All forums have to use the same domain, but they can differ in subdomains (f.i. forum1.mydomain.com will have mydomain.com as the domain for cookies).

So currently if i visit for example:

test.com - and sign in, it should leave the session open (so if i visit test2.com i wouldn't need to log-in)

if i visit test2.com- the session is separate to test.com

bt if i visit test2.test.com (this and test2 .com mask 2 go to test.com/test2) it works. Is there any way of making it work when i visit test2.com??
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/programming/247267-sharing-a-memberlist-phpbb.html

Thanks,

Mutasim

Save The Children
I think the only way to do this would be to link to the other domain sending their session id as a GET variable (ex --> http://www.otherdomain.com/whatever.php?PHPSESSID=9308d65a897e0712a32cfd )

You have to customize the phpbb script to use the same cookies across different websites. You can also synchronize the DBs, but that is a little harder.
