frequently must log in

Postby brynn » Tue Nov 18, 2008 8:27 pm

Hi
Normally I get logged in automatically each time I visit InkscapeForum.com (because when I log in, I mark "Log me in automatically each visit"). But lately, whenever I arrive, I find I need to log in again. This has happened 3 or 4 times over the last week.

I know it's not a big deal to log in, but it's kind of annoying.

Is this something you're doing micro? Or is it a server issue? Is there anything I can do about it?

Thanks :D

If it was an issue with the site it should be affecting everyone, and I know I haven't been experiancing any issues. So I suspect it's probably an issue with your browser where it's not correctly setting the cookies. Perhaps you browser is clearing cookies when you close it. Or perhaps it's blocking cookies. Some firewall/virus scanner/protecting software may also interfere with the setting of cookies.

Thanks micro.
I think I might know what's causing it. I tweaked my browser security a little the other day. I'm not aware it involved cookies, but I'll look more closely.
