VBB automatic logout when activate vBSEO plugin

Hi there.
I've just install vBSEO to my vbb forum, all functions work but users always need relogin to forum because cookie have problem.

I reed some posts from vBSEO and vBSEO staff said: Cookie error because other component. But, see this picture:




When vBSEO activated, IE always creat new cookie file per link on the web => per click, per cookie file. User will be kick out when they get 13 - 15 cookie file.

If I turn vBSEO off, only 2 cookies created.

My VBB setting:
Path to Save Cookies: /forum/
Cookie Domain: .topplay.vn

Any body can help me resolve this problem?

Thanks

If you dont have more then one forum on your server you should use cookie domain blank. Whast is your .htaccess content

When I set cookie domain = blank still get the same error
This is my .htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} .*topplay.vn
RewriteRule ^/forum/((urllist|sitemap_).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ /forum/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} .*topplay.vn
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/forum/(acua/|mcua/|cron)
RewriteRule ^/forum/((archive/)?(.*\.php(/.*)?)?)$ /forum/vbseo.php [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} .*topplay.vn
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !^/forum/clear.gif
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !^/forum/(acua|mcua|clientscript|cpstyles|images|upload|ima gehosting)/
RewriteRule ^/forum/(.+)$ /forum/vbseo.php [L,QSA]

Thanks for your support

Hello,

I tried browsing your site and I'm getting only one cookie. Don't you have a mod installed on your forum that can set the cookie? Can you find out details on what exactly is the cookie name?

I try to disable all mods, but I still get many cookies files created per link on my forum.
Cookie name: title-of-post-id/
Cookie Internet address: Cookie:myname@title-of-post-id/

Per post click, IE will make new cookie file like above and I lost my session.

If you are checking that in IE options=>..=>View Files, then that is not the name of cookie, but the "name of IE's temporary internet file". Does it happen when you are logged in only? Please open a ticket with testing account details to check that.

These cookies are not vb or vbseo.

They are being set by something that calls

HIM_method

as it's cookie name. HIM_method is not a part of stock vb or stock vbseo.

It must be coming from an addon, an ad program, or something else you run.


a google search returning mostly non-english results,
HIM_method - Google Search
so i can't be of much help there.

This blog has some info about it.
http://rhos.sourceforge.net/?page_id=5

you have all those same cookies vars
HIM_daucu
HIM_method
HIM_on_off

etc

more research says its some javascript for Vietnamese characters for a WYSIWYG.

You can try top change set cookie code in bogovn.js file to resolve the issue, find:

HTML Code:

	document.cookie='HIM_on_off='+on_off+';expires='+exp
	document.cookie='HIM_method='+method+';expires='+exp
	document.cookie='HIM_ckspell='+dockspell+';expires='+exp
	document.cookie='HIM_daucu='+dauCu+';expires='+exp

repalce with:

HTML Code:

	document.cookie='HIM_on_off='+on_off+';expires='+exp+';path=/'
	document.cookie='HIM_method='+method+';expires='+exp+';path=/'
	document.cookie='HIM_ckspell='+dockspell+';expires='+exp+';path=/'
	document.cookie='HIM_daucu='+dauCu+';expires='+exp+';path=/'

Thank all vBSEO Staff.
Problem resolved
bogo.js is Vietnamese typing.
