I may be missing something. On my forum, I can log on without cookies but once I start to register a new user, I get an access denied message if my browser does not allow cookies. In this case, I see a "eye" icon in IE status bar.

You can try for yourself: please visit www.powershell.de and try and register yourself. You will receive the mentioned error message unless you explicitly allow cookies for that site.

This must be related to the fact that I use the forum inside a frameset. When I open the forum as a separate window, I do not get the error message. Is there anything I can do to prevent this? Thx!

An issue has been identified with the registration pages if your browser doesn't work with cookies which is being fixed for the next release.

Although Web Wiz Forums can work without cookies it is not recommended.

Frames do course problems for both cookies and having your forum indexed by serach engines, and again if you can you should avoid the use of frames, which have been a depreciated standard for a long time now.

If you must use frames you can try editing in notepad the file includes/setup_options_inc.asp and setting the path for the cookies being set. This would hopefully fix the issue your site not working with cookies.

Thanks for your helpful response. I would very much like to not use frames (in fact, we use an iframe). however, we would like to integrate the forum into our web site appearance. Maybe I have overlooked somethink and it is possible to embed it otherwise. What we need are headers and footers. Maybe there is an include file where we could add that code, it is just plain HTML.

Yes there is.

In the includes folder you will find a header.asp and footer.asp file that is for this type of integration.
