Four Island

In response to yesterday's post, I think I've already found a solution. You don't want to anonymously comment? You don't have to. Now, if you have a Fourm account, it serves as a Four Island account too.

The Login link in the NavBar goes to the login module in the Fourm. It wasn't too hard integrating except for all of this cookie strangeness. It was pretty difficult with the cookies as phpBB3 seems to store a lot of session data in the database rather than the session files.

Note: Because I had to change the cookie path to get cookies working with the root of the website, you may have to clear your cache and/or delete all of your cookies to be able to log in. It did that to me and it was annoying. Just letting you know.

For those not in the know, in Firefox, to delete your cookies, you open the Tools menu, click "Clear Private Data", check off "Cookies" and click "Clear Private Data Now". Thank you. :)
