Hey ... strange happenings here. Maybe you can help, Tyler?
When I first come to
http://www.thehiddenforest.org I click on the forum link and it shows me as currently looking at the board, however I am not logged in ever and it's like the cookies don't want to stay. The thing that intrigues me is that it knows I am coming back and displays my name at the bottom so I'm wondering if it is a server side problem with the cookies. I don't have this problem on any other forums.
Also, this didn't happen before the portal was put in - the other forum kept cookies without problem.
Using Firefox 3.0.10
Thanks

Don't mind that for now - i kept deleting caches, changed cookie domain and all sorts of stuff - in other words, if you didn't experience a problem then that would be a problem at your end
Should be all good now tho (least for today!)

To add: Magelo links need to be updated since we switches domains:
old :
Code: Select all
http://www.thehiddenforest.org/ncb/character.php?char=Jerant
new
Code: Select all
http://magelo.thehiddenforest.org/character.php?char=Jerant

It was still happening today (hapened yesterday too) so I just now cleared all my hiddenforest cookies to see if that makes a difference. It seems that I get "shadow" logged out after maybe a half hour or hour so I'll check then.
Not sure if your "for now" meant to kept checking on this or not, but I don't think it has to do with you changing stuff because it is consistent.

It should be fine now - didn't mess around with any settings today.

it's still happening Tyler, maybe it's b/c delete all board cookies is available to everyone? I think someone keeps clicking it!

Will look into that tomrrow.
Btw, anyone have gfx problems? Like red X instead of Icons etc? All fine here but some Microsoft user (some people just never learn) keeps reporting error gfx.
The "Delete all Board cookies" is client side only.

Shouldnt , but who knows when it comes to computers.
Everyone clear their browser cache and cookies if you still have problems. Open new Browser (Firefox!

. Works fine for me. I tweaked the server side cookie settings once more.
