What did you do Greg? ever since your little upgrade today I have to log in every time i leave PF and try returning. I've got the little check box checked, so what did you do?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
My reply button is acting like the quote button, i think Greg is just having a laugh.
 
He's been drinking again, huh? Dammit!

Geez, can't you get a hint? :biggrin:

Is anyone else having this problem? I haven't encountered it, so maybe Greg added a special little upgrade just for tribdog. :wink:
 
I'm pretty sure it's my computer that's screwing up, but I don't know how or why, so I'm going to be blaiming greg
 
I've noticed nothing different and I haven't been logged out.
 
The forums have made me login about 6 times over the last 2 days.
 
Use firefox--> "remember password"

I login like over 12 times each day to like 12 different accounts (gmails, hotmails, school email, work email, pf,..)
 
i do use firefox. I never had this problem until the upgrade yesterday.

Did you logout since the upgrade? I never logged out, and it's fine with me. I use IE7 though.

I never log out, I just close my browser or turn off my computer. I'm not doing anything different than I've always done.

Wow, does tribdog's posts look lighter to anyone else? Kind of like they get fainter and fainter every time he has to log back in. At this rate he'll be completely invisible by tomorrow. :eek:

I don't even do that. The computer has been on and the browser running -- I just get logged off. It's even happened to me while posting: type stuff, preview, type stuff, submit, "you are not logged in". Admittedly that was a long post, written over ~30 minutes.

What? Type louder, tribdog, I can barely read you!

It's likely that session IDs were wiped out with the upgrade. I advise anyone having this problem to clear their cookies and then log in again. Please let me know if this solves the problem.

Lucky you are! I loged out but when I came back I see I'm still in. I had this problem even before upgrade, cleared cache, reset PC, yet this problem still exists!:rolleyes:

<I'm going to clear cache again and if that wouldn't help, you have to ban me>:devil:

Got the same problem now at another computer, not at home. Have to relog in with every page change. Doesn't want to remember me.

Never mind, it works fine with another profile. Probably a local setting.

As chroot said, go into tools>options>privacy>show cookies and then search for physicsforums and delete all of them.
Then try again.

I had a similar problem on amazon.com recently. Clearing the cookies did it for me.

Yep, that was all it took. Thanks! :blushing:
