For some reason, when users log into my forum, they don't stay logged in. This happens to administrators, and regular users. For example, when I first when to my forum site tonight, I logged in, and then it said I had a PM. So, I clicked on the link to go there, but then the "you are not logged in" page came up, and so I logged in again. All that happens is it says "thank you for logging in", redirects me, and then I don't stay logged in when I go to another page. Does that make sense? Please help!!

Make sure your cookie path and domain are default:
Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> Cookies and HTTP Header Options
The path should be "/" and the domain should be blank.
Also, some portals and other addons will modify the login form to post to a full URL which can cause these kinds of problems because the login cookie is specific to one host (e.g. the cookie is written to www.domain.com when you are using domain.com). In that case you need to either disable the offending addon or make sure you are using the same host as the login form.
