Should be straight forward, however the $idcookiename is member username instead of an id. So, if I use: $cookieidtype = 'name' It makes no difference, the cookie still shows the id number and not the username. Also the wp cookie contains "Domain:" rather than "Host:" Domain: = ".domain.tld" How can I create the cookie this way? Please advise. Thanks

Also the wp cookie contains "Domain:" rather than "Host:" Domain: = ".domain.tld" I've no idea what you mean by this, since I've never heard of a cookie that contained either "Domain:" or Host:". Can you post the cookie?

So, what I am saying is if I understand the manual and use $cookieidtype = 'name' Using the example above, where username is admin = user_id = 1 and logging into WSN Links first; "Content:1" should be replaced and set the cookie with "Content: admin" This does NOT happen; When I use the integration file: <?php $memberstable = 'wp_users' $newusergroup = 'user_status' $newname = 'user_login' $newid = 'ID' $newpassword = 'user_pass' $newemail = '' $newtime = '' $newip = '' $newvalidated = '' $newsignature = '' $newlocation = '' $newbio = '' $newhomepage = 'user_url' $newoccupation = '' $newaim = '' $newmsn = '' $newicq = '' $newyahoo = '' $newcustomtitle = '' $newinterests = '' $newsalt = '' $otherencoder = 'no' $admingroup = '-1' $group4 = '' $group5 = '' $idcookiename = 'wordpressuser' $passwordcookiename = 'wordpresspass' $cookietype = '' $idindex = '' $passwordindex = '' $cookieidtype = 'name' $sessionquery = '' ?> WSN links is producing the two cookies fine, however "wordpressuser" is created with the ID number rather than the username. Consequently, I am unable to log into either wordpress or links, that is if I attempt to log into links first. If I leave cookieidtype empty I can log into links but not into wordpress, it gives me an incorrect session ID error. If I look at the cookie WSN links produces "Content: 1" is always present no matter if I use $cookieidtype = 'name' or $cookieidtype = '' Again that's if I attempt to log into links first before wordpress. I am however assuming setting $cookieidtype="name" is supposed to set the cookie with a username rather than ID number. BTW, I am using Firefox to view the cookie information.

But the layout is the same.

The cookies rename themselves with random strings for no apparant reason. The password cookie is double md5ed so it doesn't match the database value. Moreover, Word Press doesn't seem to have any place to actually set the cookies to be global to the domain... I had to manually hack the source to it to set a cookie that would be accessible outside the Word Press directory. Since hardly anyone will be able to figure out how to make their cookies accessible I'm not going to waste the time handling them (unless of course it's at an hourly rate). I can get the wordpress registration date working properly, have done that for 4.0.20.

However, Mu Wordpress is a multi user environment ie. you can set up mulitple blogs on virtual domains or across multiple virtual directories. I think it would be cool to have links be able to integrate into this "platform"....as a "plugin".

That'd be something for someone familiar with wordpress to work on.
