Forum not remembering me...all the time

[Goodspeed]

Little pet peeve of mine I thought I'd bring up, one day the forum just stopped remembering my logon info. About half the time I visit the forum, it doesn't remember me, and I have to log back in again. I'll check the "remember me" box to no avail. On top of that, it'll usually not show any "new posts" icons after I log in, so I don't know what has happened since I last checked without going through everything.

I know this has started happening to a few other people. I haven't touched my browser settings at all, so this happened without my doing. Whatever cookies are set at now or whatever, they were months ago when this didn't happen.

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks and much appreciated :dunno:

Edit: I just noticed theres a thread about this above, but like I said I haven't done anything to the cookies, is this problem back?

No, you just own a gay mac - quit looking at porn.

Its been happening to DJ and Ryan - they both own PCs. Every other forum and/or site I frequent that requires a logon remembers me.

It only remembers me when I come in from my e-mail...it never does if I just go to MM. About half the time it will remember me if I let the site load all the way when I come into explorer...MM/forum is my homepage.

I used to have a hard time getting 'remembered' using the traditional logon style. I started logging in through the 'check your PM's' route and never had any more problems.

pc/firefox

methinks it is user-side.

I used to have that problem when I bookmarked just the forum index. I changed my bookmark to include a session ID (fake example below) and haven't had a problem since.

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://mmsports.org/forum/index.php?sid=4323r234r23232343431432423">http://mmsports.org/forum/index.php?sid ... 3431432423</a><!-- m -->

It shows up after you log into the site and are redirected back to the main page.

I don't have the problem anymore... phpbb doesn't use normal php sessions so I don't know what to do. I'm not digging through that ish either.

On minimal inspection everything looks good. The site's domain is set to mmsports.org, so if you normally log in to <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.mmsports.org/forum">www.mmsports.org/forum</a><!-- w --> try going to mmsports.org/forum and see if it fixes your issue. Also, use the "log in" button on the main forum page.

I don't seem to have any issues with either under WinXP/Firefox 2.0.0.9 or Red Hat Linux/Firefox v1.5.0.7

I had problems before, but they are all good now.
