Forum auto-login / cookies problem

Post by Ciaran » Mon May 04, 2009 6:28 pm

Hi folks,

Unfortunately, due to some changes I made to the forum software this afternoon, you may find that auto-login doesn't work for you, or that you repeatedly get asjed for your username and password, after typing a post for example.

To fix this, you need to delete your cookies and temporary internet files, then close and reopen any browser windows.

This should cause you to receive a new cookie the next time you visit the site, and auto-login should work from there on.

Sorry about the hassle.

Ciarán

Good point Paul, I hadn't noticed any emails myself, but didn't twig on.

I'll check it now :)
