Issues with login

Irish Wolf

Howdy folks...

So this is the second time this has happened in the last couple of days - when I get automatically logged out and try to log back in again I get the "thank you for logging in Irish Wolf" and redirected back to the page I was viewing yet I'm still logged out. I've requested my password to be reset on both occasions - the first time it worked no problem and was able to log in again, but today I was still logged out even after entering the new password. I needed to close out all my browser windows in order to log in sucessfully.

Is this a known "feature" or is there something I can do to prevent this happening in the future?

Thanky.

Have you ticked the 'Remember Me' box beside the login fields? It won't be on the main page but should be there on any other page you try to login.

Irish Wolf

I have not - I shall try that the next time I login and hope that solves the problem. I'm guessing there's no way to prevent the automatic logout?

Ruu_Old

If the 'Remember Me' feature doesn't do it then I'm not sure if there is another way.

Irish Wolf

Ok - thanks Ruu!

Do you use boards on more than one computer?

Try deleting your cookies and temp internet files and if you can delete your stored passwords also?

Irish Wolf

Nope - just use the one computer... Actually it looks like the 'Remember Me' has worked. I haven't been automatically logged out after a long period of inactivity.

Thanks.
