Hi guys,
if I'm logged in drupal with phpbbforum in drupal page integration mode and not navigate the site for a while when I go directly on a forum post from a link I see I'm authenticated in drupal but not in the forum. If I change page and go back to the forum it will stay logged off on the forum.

I think it's related to session lifetime in phpBB3. What should I do? set it to 0? or the module needs to check this stuff and reset phpBB3 session?

Cheers

Try to setup in ACP Load settings

Session length: 86400 Seconds
Sessions will expire after this time, in seconds.

this seems to work, but I'm wondering if it will work in any case because I have no glue on drupal/phpbbforum session sync...

Since my phpbb3 was connected to drupal, I must re-login (in phpbb3, not drupal) 2-3+ time for day. I tried change a session setting in php.ini - no effect. Any fix?

We have the same problem. For most users it's solved, when the user manually login to the forum, and ticks of the persistant login field. So my thought would be, to get that ticked off when logging into Drupal the first time. Would that be possible?

Subscribing for the same issue.
I increased the session timeout for phpBB but this does not solve the problem for all users.

We are using version 6.x-2.0beta12 ...

I posted a bit more of a detailed reasoning behind this, I think it is all caused by the same issue. That is, once the session expires on phpbb, you will get logged off because this module doesn't recognise the phpbb persistent login cookie.

I'm unsure if it is just a limitation of the module or something else.
