Logging in

[mrplow]

Is it just me or does everyone have to log in each time they come back

It's pretty annoying tbh, how can I make the cookie stay properly (I have checked the REMEMBER ME box with no success)

Filthy invision ;) :o

I had the same problem when I first joined. Then it corrected it self. And now since Pug made the main site point here here I have to log in each time.

I thought it was maybe a problem with using Opera. Luckily the magic wand in Opera logs me in in one click :D

[mrplow]

I fixed it by changing my bookmark to point to the real url (http://wizdforums.slackworth.co.uk/index.php) instead of the wizd.co.uk which uses that evil of evils - url masking.

I'm always logged in when I click the bookmark now, huzzah!

Phew. I thought something major had gone wrong for a minute. :unsure: :D

The shiny forums are fine :)
Maybe you could get pug (unless you have admin to the domain) to switch from masking to a straight redirect ^_^

Hmm, I had asked them to just redirect here. Mebbe it's better to switch it back to the main site again and let people come through the link on the front page.

I'll see if I can get it sorted back how it was again - trouble is, they're harder to reach by phone than me (and that's saying something).

Tried today from Hospital PC and I couldn't log in.

it appears they're just doing a frameset like so

<FRAMESET>
<FRAME WIDTH=100% SRC=teh forumz>
</FRAMESET>

It probably breaks the 'remember me' functionality since cookies are stored with a domain/url accessibility thinger at the end. we're veiwing from wizd.co.uk but the cookie exists for wizdforums.slackworth.co.uk.

You need a CGI (perl? asp? php) at the front end OR a <META> refrresh instead of the frameset.

Transferring to vB3 very very soon so might sort out the problems anyway.
