MyBB Community Forums

Full Version: Multiple domains on a message board
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I run a message board that we recently converted from IPB to MyBB (latest*). We have a primary domain that we use with the site (domain1.com). We want to configure a second domain (domain2.com) to point to a specific forum**. Ideally we want to have the user remain on that second domain throughout. 

Aka:

>MainForum (domain1.com)
>>ForumA (also part of domain1.com)
>>>SubforumAA
>>>SubforumAB
>>ForumB (domain2.com)
>>>SubforumBA
>>>SubforumBB
>>ForumC (domain3.com)
>>>SubforumCA
>>>SubforumCB

We plan to have the other forums themed differently and whatnot as well, which I think I have figured out.

I understand this isn't technically possible with a cookie, so I am looking for a way to leverage the primary domain and pass the login status back to the secondary domain. Or something like https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8406...le-domains

I appreciate any advice or suggestions!


*:MyBB Version: 1.8.12
PHP Version: 5.6.30-0+deb8u1
SQL Engine: MySQLi 5.6.27

**: I am bad with terminology, in this board's context, we want to use a forum like "1.8 Support" that has multiple subforums.
