Description and Message
Since moving portal.php from /forum to the domain root there is a cookie problem.

Users are now required to log in each day, despite checking the "Remember me" box.

Is there a fix for this?

Make sure the cookie path is set to '/'

I which file is that?

Thanks.

In no file.
Set it in the ACP.

Yes, just found it and it is already set to /

This problem has only started occurring since I moved the portal.php file from /forum to the domain root.

Anything else I can check?

Still got the same problem with this.
What should the configuration in the root .htaccess be?

Delete the entry in the .htaccess for the portal in your forum directory.
Create a new one in your root directory, with the entry for the portal.

Thanks.

I've tried several things and still can't resolve this cookie problem.

I now have both home.php (portal) and forum.php in the domain root.

I suspect it's due to this line in my .htaccess file: Any ideas what I can do to resolve it?

Well after 2 days it still has me signed in.

If you have Firefox handy go to Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Show Cookies -> filter cliptheapex -> check all cookies have the path '/'

It all seems to be fine.

I've just cleared all the board cookies and I'll see what happens.

This is still not working so we have no option but to uninstall the portal.

Well I'm still logged in perfectly fine. Sorry, but we don't know what could cause this and so do not know what we can do to fix it.

Maybe it's an issue with having multiple pages open?

I have Firefox set to automatically open the homepage, forum and ACP in separate tabs.
Perhaps that is the reason?

That used to work without the portal though so obviously something somewhere needs tweaking.
I'll see if I can track it down...
