I'm running Nginx with modpagespeed served by CloudFlare DNS for my forum website.
Cookies seem to hold, but the forum index itself shows you're logged out when you're logged in, unless you append /index.php to the forums/ . I suppose it's caching, but not sure what to do about it.

This is an IPS Community Suite forum, not connected to my wordpress install.

My nginx is as follows
