Do you visit this site and others in the network?

Basically if you logout from all the sites (or dump your cookies) then Login on the Kitmaker site you will see that the links for the other sites (Armorama, ModelGeek, Model Shipwrights) all change to xxxxx.kimaker.net domains. This means your single login will now work for all of these sites. The exception to this rule would be if you click on a link in the forum (or in your favorites) and that link takes you back to the normal domain. Then you will appear logged out. Those are things I need to work on.

The other epiphany I had the other day is that the gallery cookie is limited in time. So you can BE logged into the kitmaker site but NOT on the photos.kitmaker.net site as your session has expired. This is also something I will fix.

This new function that may not have ALL the bugs worked out of it yet. I am counting on you guys to let me know when you may see issues with it.

Well have fun. A few more curves to deal with for you. :-)

Cheers,
Jim

I should have said that eventually the KitMaker homepage will make a nice summary overview of the key things going on on all the sites.

Okay I logged out of Armorama, ModelGeek, Historica Forma and KitMaker Photos, deleted my cookies and then went to https://archive.kitmaker.net/ and logged in.
But when I clicked on the links on the Kitmaker homepage and got back to Armorama I wasn't logged in here.
What did I do wrong

Hi Jim,
Just found something, When logged in from Kitmaker, clicking from Latest Posts to Latests Posts on one of the other sites brings you out to normal domain land. Don't know if that is something that can be fixed though.

Edit-- Same thing as above too. The ones on the top of the page work correctly though.

Pat,
Sorry I should have pointed out that the banner site images on the homepage there are FIXED urls. The ones that will change with this are the tab links across the top of the site (under the large banner). Those should work for you.

Eventually I will get all the links synched up based on your cookie type.

Got it. Thanks Jim. That was the only thing that bugged me about the new set up -all the different logins.
I still have to log in to KitMaker Photos as there is no tab for it, I can live with that though

Pat,
Hmm...not sure what you mean about the photos tab. But someone did say that on the photos site we need links back to the various sites, etc. which I will try to do soon. One little step at a time.

Cheers,
Jim
