    Im using this really useful plugin, but now when Im in the category (subdomain) or in a post in that category, it wont detect anymore than Im logged in, in the main site.

    How can I make it detect that I am logged in the main site, when I am in a category?

    For example, i made a category “animals”, so now my category is accesible with animals.mysite.com
    But when Im inside animals.mysite.com, wordpress doesnt detect anymore that im logged in on mysite.com … so i need to write again info for comments, and the Edit Post link doesnt show.

    How can I fix this??

    Thank you!

  • Hi,

    From the readme:

    If using Subdomains you’ll probably want your cookie to span the subdomains and not just your own domain. In order to achieve this you need to add an option to your wp-config.php:

    define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.mydomain.com');

    Where mydomain.com is your domain name. Remember to add the preceeding dot (.) as this is what makes it work.

    Please note, after setting this you’ll probably need to delete any cookies your browser has for your domain.

    Regards,

    Ahhh thanks!!

    I did insert that code, but I guess in the wrong place and didnt flush the cookies.

    Thanks for your patience and help! ??

    Alex… is it possible to make that edit from inside the admin panel. Like can your plugin rewrite/fix the config.php?

    Just thought it would be a cool addition. Glad I’m seeing this now.
