Title: Site automatically logging me out...except it isn't
Post by: Mongoose on October 21, 2009, 01:51:32 am

Whenever I navigate away from the site and load it up again, the sidebar on the main page is showing me as being logged out, despite my using the checkbox to keep me continuously logged in.  The strange thing is, though, when I go to the forums, I'm still registering as being logged in.  I seem to remember something like this happening to a few people relatively recently, but I can't track down any posts about it.  I've tried clearing my cache and deleting all of the site cookies, to no avail.

I can reproduce that.  I always go straight to the forums but just checked the main pages and it says welcome guest with the login or register options.

Over here as well, on FF3 as well as IE7.

Guess not. :p From searching online, it looks like it might be a clash between SMF and EE session cookies. I'll look into it.

It's always done that to me. Not really that irritating but it woulod be nice to see it fixed. For the record it happens with FF3, IE8, IE7 and IE6. (All the browsers I regularly use.) I think Safari might do it too.
