blank won't work, you need to use ".domain.com" if you use different subdomains.Planning to continue using VB 3.8 post EOL? Then join the VB 3.8 Forever group and vB3Forever.org!Comment

The first answer was the correct one. Your cookie path should be set to / and the cookie domain should be set to blank.
You should only set these if you have multiple vBulletins installed on the same domain in different folders or different sub-domains.Translations provided by Google.

And I still believe that using http://www.domain.com and http://domain.com at the same time behaves exactly like using two different sub-domains, doesn't it?Planning to continue using VB 3.8 post EOL? Then join the VB 3.8 Forever group and vB3Forever.org!Comment

Yes it does. That's the way cookies work.Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)

A cookie domain setting in the form .domain.com will resolve this. Then your forum cookies will work on both www.domain.com and domain.com.Comment

I can no longer recreate the problem, http://domain.com automatically becomes http://www.domain.com now. Maybe it was something done in Beta 3 or maybe FireFox is doing it, dunno.Comment

Also note that many portal and CMS addons will alter the login form to use a full URL, thereby forcing a specific host (e.g. www.domain.com).Comment
