Hello guys,
I just got YAF up and running and want to change the login/cookies from YAF to our custom login

I changed the cookie settings in the web.config file as follows below

please advice

many thanks

Ehi


<membership defaultProvider=".xxxxxxx.co.uk" hashAlgorithmType="SHA1">
<providers>
<clear />
<!-- YAF's ASP.NET Membership Provider is designed to work a bit better with YAF.NET options, but is by no means required.
But, you will not be able to switch providers after installing your forum.
<add name="YafMembershipProvider" applicationName="YetAnotherForum" connectionStringName="yafnet" requiresUniqueEmail="true" useSalt="true" type="YAF.Providers.Membership.YafMembershipProvider"/> -->
<add name=".xxxxxx.co.uk" applicationName="/" connectionStringName="yafnet" requiresUniqueEmail="true" useSalt="true" type="YAF.Providers.Membership.YafMembershipProvider"/>
<!-- Set as default if you want to use use the built-in ASP.NET membership provider. Password Type of "Encrypted" requires a machine key. -->


and



<authentication mode="Forms">
<!-- <forms name=".YAFNET_Authentication" protection="All" timeout="43200" cookieless="UseCookies"/>-->
<forms name=".xxxxxx.co.uk" protection="All" timeout="43200" cookieless="UseCookies" domain=".xxxxx.co.uk" loginUrl="http://www.xxxxxx.co.uk/account/login.aspx"/>
</authentication>

Sounds like you're talking about using your own membership rather than YAF's. That unfortunately is outside of my knowledge, but another YAF developer may be able to assist.
