cookies hanging around [fixed]

Lieutenant Joined: Dec 30, 2003 Posts: 283

I had a problem with cookies hanging around when I log out... as a result all admin blocks would show on the left even thogh logged out.

Solution:

open file: modules\Your_account\index.php

Locate: Function logout()

5 lines down: locate:

Code:

setcookie("user");

replace the above line with:

Code:

setcookie("user", "", time() - 3600);
setcookie("admin", "", time() - 3600);

That's it. Razz

Env. Nuke 7.0/Win2k/Apache

Would this time-out a users cookie, so that even though they dont log off, when they come back to your site they will have to log in again every time?

Great question. This code is executed ONLY if they click on logout, so what you mention is not a problem.

Very interesting, but does not work for me under Nuke 7.0. No matter what I do, I can't log out of the system.

*bump*

Still no fix for 7.0 7.1 ??

Admin logout works, but not user log out.

Win2k, IE 5.0

Well, sometimes I am logged in as Admin and a (test) user and when I log out as Admin, it logs out the user as well (or other way around?). IS this normal behaviour??
