okay so then since they are on the same domain try "/" as the cookie prefix that allows it to go site wide..

Are they running off the same database? If they are 2 different boards, then the cookies won't be interchangeable. Only if they have a common user database.

Are there two different cookies being set? Check your cookies to determine if you have two different cookies, and note the differences in here.

so then if they are both set to use cookies the / should tell it to use the same cookies site wide and you are already using the the same database so the cookie should work.. you are sure they are both on the same domain one is on

www.widget.com/forum and the other on www.widget.com/test and the main domain is www.widget.com?

the cookie looks like this:

Code
 /w3t_myid<br />2<br />www.4701.dk/<br />1024<br />980439168<br />29743317<br />3237765264<br />29669891<br />*<br />/w3t_language<br />danish<br />www.4701.dk/<br />1024<br />980439168<br />29743317<br />3237765264<br />29669891<br />*

But there is definitely only ONE cookie?

If there are two cookies - one may be over-writing the other.

I had (for a few years) a setup like this:

http://www.bladekeep.com/forums/ - standard stuff

http://www.bladekeep.com/forums-lite/ - a VERY stripped down version of the forums for people to use at work (ie very few icons or fancy schmancy stuff).

I had no problem with this setup in terms of being logged in.
