--This problem occurred when accessed from a PM. Was OK when accessed from the home page.

The Search page shows a minimal interface, no options for date range, author. etc, only has field for Key Words.

--This problem occurs regardless of where it is accessed from.
An Insights page,
https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-are-significant-figures-a-5-minute-introduction/

shows message at the bottom "You must be logged in[/color] to post a comment."
When logged in[/color] is clicked, it takes me to the login page which shows I'm already logged in.

Insights login is managed separately through a WordPress plugin for XenForo and is activated only for the Insights authors.
Thanks, that partly explains the Insights situation. But doesn't explain why it sends me back the the regular PF login.

Still waiting for the situation from a PM (Private Message).
