Hi,

Our client's web site has a subdomain forum at forum.thunderbirdlodge.com (phpBB forum). That can be seen no problem.

As soon as someone logs in, the URL changes to and stays at that domain (without the 'thunderbirdlodge.com') for the rest of the time while using the forum. We think it has something to do with the login.php file from phpBB getting the root level before redirecting. We're not sure.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
 
Hi,

Even if the folder isn't a subdomain (i.e. just a regular folder - the URL changes when logging in. What's going on in the login.php file to redirect to the improper (non-domained name!) URL?

Thanks!
 
do you want to keep visible all the time in the adress ???

in that case you can make a frameset in the index.html with one dummy page of heigth one and the main refering to the subdomain
 
Hi,

We fixed the problem. The root path is an editable feature after logging in to phpBB. We always tend to look into the code when we should just look at the GUI!

Thanks!
