Board Requires Me to Keep Logging In

Sat Jul 05, 2014 3:59 pm

Hi Mark,

Since joining BGC some time back, I've had no problems using it. Since about April, I log in like normal and get the "Thank you for logging in screen." Usually I'm sent to the forum page. Lately I get a ribbon informing me that the site wants to redirect me. I click "allow" and I go back to the log-in page. When this first happened, I disabled my pop-up blocker. I log-in again and may or may not get to the board page. If I do it shows in the top left corner of the screen that I am logged in. When I select a board, I go to a different page asking me to log in. When I log-in, I go to the board I selected. When I click on a thread, I go to the log-in screen again. When I log in I go the the thread I selected and read it. When done I click the back button and am sent to a log-in screen again. It seems with each step I have to log-in again, yet the screen shows me I'm logged-in. I'm sure when I click "submit" below, I will be asked to log in again. Do you know what's causing this and what to do about it?

Chuck

Depends on the state of your browser cache. If you have a lot of cookies in your cache, it may take a while to find your login cookie, and the board will time out before it receives it, requiring you to log in again.

Clear your cookies (if you can), or try a different browser. No changes to the login system have been made, so if it happens on multiple browsers, let us know and we'll investigate.

Thanks Mike. I did just that and it seems to be working fine over multiple attempts. I also clicked the log me in automatically option because I thought that might help.

I also am getting kicked out to the login screen a lot lately. Not sure what is going on. Not really doing anything different afaik.
