Ciao,

vBulletin changed the cookie-salt value with the PL2 of version 3.84.
With the PL2 security patch the bridge will not longer work correctly.

The salt value was in the past your licence number of vBulletin. vB changed the value to a very long random value.
You will find the random value in your function.php file. Copy this value and place it in the bridge config under VB_CUST_NO

@Dev-Team:
Please change the "note"-information in the bridge file.


In single steps:

• Open the file forumpath/includes/functions.php
  or before the update, the functions.php file in the upgrade package
• search for COOKIE_SALT
  you will find something like this: define('COOKIE_SALT', 'jkhdfHJSkdjhsjjshdHJKHSKA');
• copy the string value of the salt between ' ' like this: jkhdfHJSkdjhsjjshdHJKHSKA
• close the functions.php file
• open the file gallerypath/bridge/vbulletin30.inc.php
• search for "VB_CUST_NO" (first line in configuration), it should look like this:
  define('VB_CUST_NO', '1234567')
• change the value to the new salt value (like jkhdfHJSkdjhsjjshdHJKHSKA)
• The line should look like this:
  define('VB_CUST_NO', 'jkhdfHJSkdjhsjjshdHJKHSKA')
  

Don't use "jkhdfHJSkdjhsjjshdHJKHSKA", and don't count the lenght, this is only a sample

After that the bridge will still work fine

SORRY! This is only valid for the old bridge under 1.3x
The 1.4 BridgeManager will work without modifications.

Support for cpg1.3.x has run out long ago, so there is no need for action.
