Sessions not always updating? (Last question I promise lol)

[ALieb]

So I recently cleared my cache because some of the things on the site weren't working correctly. After I cleared my cache the chat bar completely disappeared so I enabled the "guests can view bar" option and the bar re-appeared but told me that I needed to login or register for it to work. I have an IPB integration can you think of any reason why I can't see the bar after clearing my cache?

I have run into this problem on my board as well. Like you, I haven't figure the cause of the chat disappearing and appearing.

The get_user_id() function in the includes/integration.php file should be replace with this:

Code: Select all

   function get_user_id() 
   {
      $userid = NULL;
      
      foreach ($_COOKIE as $key => $val)
      {
         if (preg_match("/member_id/", $key))
         {
            $cookie_name = $key;
         }
      }
      
      if (isset($_COOKIE[$cookie_name])) 
      {
         $userid = $_COOKIE[$cookie_name];
      }

      return $userid;
   }
