trouble staying logged in
« on: September 21, 2012, 12:57:48 PM »
I'm having trouble staying logged in.  It makes me log in every time, whereas before, I just came up as myuself and not as a guest. 
I wonder what is going on.

When you log in, are you sure you've selected the session length as forever? That works fine for me.

I checked and it s on forever.  I think I've had this problem in the ast bt not for a long time.  It also seems to be intermittent, sometimes letting me in and sometimes making me log in again.  I'll just keep trying and maybe it'll stick one of these times.  Thanks.

On another forum I have had the same problem.. but it has to do with the url of the login/forum.  It has switched from the name url to the number (IP addy) url and back to the name url.

It could be an IP problem on your internet provider's side or perhaps EH has switched around a bit. In my case the forum had server problems and they recc'd using the number url.. and now it is back to the name url.

(It was not recognizing my login name.. have also had the not recognizing what threads I have read, how long to be logged in etc.)

Same thing has been happening to me.  (Yep, I have "Forever" set.)  Some of the time here at Etiquette Hell and all of the time over at Hell's Bells.

I have had this happen a couple of other times and then it just seems to fix itself.  Maybe I'll just have to wait and see what happens.

It definitely happens to me, and I've found some things that help.
1) Refresh does not help
2) Exiting the board and re-entering frequently helps
3) If really severe, re-booting the computer helps
4) The biggest help is to do something else for 10 minutes, then re-try. This almost always helps.

This started happening to me today.  Weird.  I'll see if this continues tomorrow.
