Is the hostname in the URL still the same when you leave the Phorum front page? Does it still mention the username when you have left the front page?

I tested out your site with the data you sent me in PM and I found the problem.

The reason that things did no longer work after the first click in Phorum is that you had yoursite.com configured in the Phorum HTTP Path setting, while you are accessing your main site and the first page of Phorum through www.yoursite.com.

Because of the hostname difference, cookies were not transferred after the first click in the forums.

If things do work for you, then you probably strart out at the yoursite.com URL instead of www.yoursite.com, making the cookie available over all pages.

I updated you HTTP Path in the forum general settings to fix the cookie issue.

To make things robust, you should add some rewriting rules to you site to always redirect "yoursite.com" to "www.yoursite.com".

Hey Maurice, seemed simple enough.. Somethings you never think of but that makes sense. I'm going to do a 301 redirect in my htaccess file.. You think that should be fine..

Thank you for all your help..
