Question Double Login Issue

I meant that I was using the CB Login module. I changed the login setting on the Kunena integration page to Joomla and so far it is working okay. However, the problem was intermittent so I'll need more time to declare that it is resolved.

Issue still remaining:
When clicking on the Kunena logout button, I'm still being taken to a guest login page saying "their are no topics in this category". Why is this happening? How can I get Kunena to simply direct the user back to the site home page?

Final Question:
How do I change the header message at the top of the forum that says "Welcome to Kunena 1.6"?

I'm straggling with the double login issue since 1.6.0 became stable(?). Tried it with clean 1.5.20 joomla installation, no other extension installed. Same problem (logging in with joomla's core login module, then first entrance to the forum works fine, but when the user dives in to any of the topics - boom. He finds himself out, as a guest again. After the 2nd login - everything is stable and fine).

Clearly it is something with the sessions and/or cookies, but I'm not sure what.

What solved my problem (hopefully it didn't open a new front...) is: go to Joomla's global configuration > System tab. Then change the Session Handler (in the Session settings, at the bottom right), to 'None'.
So far, it looks fine. But I'm not sure how this change influence other aspects of joomla's functionality...

By the way, there was a recommendation somewhere to set the Session Lifetime of both Joomla and Kunena to be the same, but at least in my case it didn't help. Only what I mentioned before.

Hi emanuelr

Thanks for your post. I decided to try your idea and set session handler to none. We'll see what happens. 1.6.1 is apparently imminent and hopefully it will help resolve this issue although I'm running a near final development version of 1.6.1 now and the problem is still persisting. Sooner or later it will get figured out.

Still have the double login issue. It is not all the time, only occasional but still happens.

Have you tried the Kunena login module?

It integrates with Kunena, CB and Joomla.

I am also seeing that you are still running the legacy plugin. It might not be the issue, but in general we recommend turning this off asap. It is for Joomla 1.0 legacy software and that can cause all kinds of incompatibilities. We DO NOT test Kunena 1.5 or 1.6 with the legacy module enabled.

Can you provide a list of all components and plugins you have installed?
