XF 1.4 Opening links in new windows logs out user

[51463]

I made an image with the text "Upgrade to Premium Member" and put it on my forum. The image links to the Upgrades Page.

Example:

http://myforum.com/index.php?account/upgrades

I made it so the image opens in new window.

The problem is when a registered member clicks on the image. It opens in a new window but he gets logged out.

What am i doing wrong?


Maybe it has something to do with the way i put the link?

<a href="account/upgrades">

Have you got www redirecting to non-www on your site?

No i don't think so. How can i check that?

When i type in www.mywebsite.com it stays on www.mywebsite.com while i am browsing

if i type in mywebsite.com it stays on mywebsite.com while browsing

The FAQ explains how to force one or the other.

Where exactly do i put it?

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
