ahh, I must be confusing you, since I am confusing myself also. :)

Currently, wwf saves cookies like this:

NameWWF9sLID
ValueUID=MembernameZ457BDEAA3
Hostforum.mywebsite.com
Path/
SecureNo
ExpiresAt End Of Session

How would I get WWF to write its cookies so that the host detail is ".mywebsite.com" instead of "forum.mywebsite.com" ??

For that you will need to edit the functions/functions_common.asp and look for the cookie handling functions and change the code to include the Host as it's currently not set by the software.

Brilliant! I have it working now, thanks

Sorry for the confused posts, I had to read a bit about cookies across subdomains, and I got a bit mixed up with the path and host settings of WWF's cookies, but I can now reference "strLoggedInUsername" or "strLoggedInUserCode" anywhere and across subdomains on my site now!
