    for some strange reason, when members log into amember and are redirected to vbulletin, they are no longer logged in. They have to re-enter the login info (that was registered with amember) in order to authenticate. my amember db is amerberdbmysite and my vb db is vb3mysite. I don't think vb3 is recognizing amembers cookies. Is there anything additional that I have to configure that is not in the plugin instructions. There are three options in the products section to choose from, registered users, banned users, and no intergration (I have not started with commerce yet). Within VB I've configured the xml file. The login info is being populated to vb, but when they are logged into one, they have to log in twice. thanks in advance

    I fixed my problem by installing amember and vbulletin within the same directory as opposed to a different domain (forums.mysite.com). I also made two separate mysql db's within the same domain. reinstalled both applications then imported the users back into amember.

    Whatever you do, do not enter your db user and pass in the vb3 plugin fields
    it will go bananas. You may want to have a universal pass/user for all of your db's
