Bug Description

First time you log into the forum through IVLE, the Forum doesn't show
being logged in until you click the first link. After this the forum can
use it's own cookies to keep you logged in.

This needs a rewrite of the login code in phpBB's session.php to log in in
a better way.

This means, for example, that you cannot view your Personal Messages until the forum
is refreshed'

ALSO: Forum: login issues

There's a set of minor issues with authentication for the forum:
(i) login boxes show on the forum front page even if you don't need to log in;
(ii) navigating away from the forum logs you out of the forum;
(iii) clicking logout doesn't do this (REF: Olivia March)

Mattgiuca Says:

1 and 3 are now fixed.
Don't know about 2.
