Login question

Was it working for you before in IE?

Can you try something for me? When you come to the Community Home (the page with all the boxes of the latest posts/topics) don't log-in there. Instead select the "Forums" link at top in the dark blue navigation bar. Log-in from the Forum index and let me know if it remebers your password from there.

I've hired a developer to do some work. The page that you're now directed to upon log-in is a component that I had added. When I log-in from there it's not remembering my password at all but when I log-in from the forum index it does. So I'm just wondering if others are experiencing the same. I'm trying to get that ironed out.

I cant say for sure about IE, I only remember the problem since switching over to firefox...

I logged in the way you said and it didnt work...BUT...I did some playing around and found that when I clicked on the BROWN Community button along the top of the page where the buttons go left to right, it doesnt remember me, but when I enter using the big BLUE button on the right side of the page where the links are top to bottom it will remember be...

the brown community button at the top (the one that does not remember me) has the link -
http://www.nonrev.net/forums/index.php?autocom=portal

where as the blue community button on the right (the one that will remember me) has the link -
http://nonrev.net/forums/

Chris,
For reference I have also had this problem a few times. It seems to lose my identity when I connect to the internet in different ways .. i.e. the system will recognise me if I connect to the internet via my office LAN ... if I then connect via home broadband it does not recognise me and I have to log in again then ( even if I mark the Remember Me box ) when I next log in via the office LAN it does not recognise me ... rather than just using cookies does the system also try to use your IP address to identify you ?? ... if so this need to be changed as it is no longer practical with the proloferation of dynamic IP addressing.

P.S. I'm also using IE6

I've always assumed it was by cookie but will investigate. I'm currently working with a developer on several modifications. One of them was to make the new community home page the default so that http://nonrev.net/forums/ goes to the community home instead of the forum index. I'll wait until that's all wrapped up and let you know what I find out.

Do you guys typically log out when you leave the site? I've tried not logging out lately and the last several times I've returned, I did not have to log in at all.

I've eliminated the link with the "autocom=portal" in it. We shouldn't need it anymore.
