Logging in annoyance.

[flying dog]

Ian,

 

Another "problem" which has sort of started to happen.

 

I am logged in. (Obvious)

 

I close the window and go else where. ITMT, someone replies and I get an email.

 

I open the email and click on the "View this thread". It wants me to log in again.

 

BUT!

 

If I close that window, and open a new one, and go to "recflying" (home page) it logs me in right away.

 

So the cookies are working - I guess.

 

What am I missing?

 

Oh, I am using Rasbian - Debian/Linux on a Raspberry Pi and using Firefox as the browser.

What you are describing has me stumped and I would say it is not specific to the site but rather your setup which I would not even be able to guess what could be happening...sorry I am not much help on this

FD, does any of your prompts say "remember me?" Just click it. I'm no expert. Nev

Facthunter,

 

Not as far as I remember.

 

I am given the log in screen, Username/password.

 

There are references to bookface and the like.

 

Just opened a new window and went to recflying and pressed the log in button:

 

Username

 

Password

 

(log in Yes I am a member / become one)

 

Book face / Tweeter log in. huh?

 

LOG IN

 

No "Remember me" to be seen.

 

Ian,

 

Granted it ma not be "your" problem, but this is getting annoying/worse.

 

Every week I am sent the "popular topics" e-mail and it is nice.

 

I read the interesting ones.

 

But can't reply because I am not logged in.

 

Weird, as in another TAB I am... But anyway, on the a "newer" problem related to this.

 

So this weeks topic is "Nailed it!"

 

Nailed it! Strong language warning, don't do this

 

I can't post/watch the clip. (Dunno at this stage because of bookface or just not being logged in to this site.)

 

Ok, go to search:

 

Type in ---- nailed it

 

Can't see it listed.

 

Press BACK button and try --- strong language and tick the search topic only (as I guess opposed to ALL text)

 

"Showing results 1 of 1"

 

and the rest of the screen is BLANK.

 

I'd send you a screen shot, but

 

a: I can't as I am using a Raspberry Pi and don't know how to.

 

b: The resolution is WAY beyond 1024 x 768

 

c: I need to be logged into search, and just now I am typing this post in the ONLY window in which I am logged in. (I don't want to start a trek to find my password)

 

This "problem" isn't nice, as I am wanting to read the WHOLE thread with all privileges of a member, but can't.

 

When I try to find it, I am bounced around with the search thingy.
