notification email

[dimmer77]

here's my problem... i have my forum installed to the physical location of www.pollutionlake.com/forum/ but it can also be accessed at forum.pollutionlake.com

i want users to use the forum.pollutionlake.com one, and that is also what i have entered as the cookie domain in my forum configuration.

i'm finding that when the forum sends out topic notification emails, it sends me to www.pollutionlake.com/forum/ which doesn't allow me to log in properly (i'm guessing because of the cookie domain setting).

how would i get it to send the URL i want in the notification emails?

Your Board Configuration needs a change.

In the admin Panel, Click Configuration, Its under General Admin.
Look for "Script path", Change it to reflect your SubDomain Rather then your reg. Domain.

i think i've solved it.. your solution only half worked...

my script path was originally "/forum/"
i changed it to forum.pollutionlake.com, and tested it by having a private message sent to me. i got a notification email, and this is the url it pointed me at:

http://www.pollutionlake.com/forum.poll ... lder=inbox

tried typing in http://forum.pollutionlake.com and the email points me to:

http://www.pollutionlake.com/http://for ... lder=inbox

i took a wild guess and changed the domain name setting to "forum.pollutionlake.com" and then changed the script path to "/". the email is now pointing to the proper place.

i'm assuming the change won't mess anything else up...

thanks.
