Matt Posted 15 April 2007 Share Posted 15 April 2007 Before I always just be able to come online click Foxestalk on my favorites and I could just read/post, but recently (Since the board was down about 2 weeks ago I think) I have to type my username and password in everytime. Was just wondering if there was a way to always be automatically logged in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookwhaticando Posted 15 April 2007 Share Posted 15 April 2007 I imagine it's because your IP is dynamic. The board no longer relies solely on your cookies, it also checks your IP. If your IP changes on a regular basis, you have to login each time. It happened approximately two weeks ago because that's when the forum software was updated.

Stinkenzo Posted 15 April 2007 Share Posted 15 April 2007 Try signing in in the middle where it says Login/Register instead of the side. It'll tell you to sign in then give you an option whether to remember you. There was a problem with it a few weeks back but if this is different, take it from LWICD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfc_jme Posted 16 April 2007 Share Posted 16 April 2007 I've pressed the remember me button, and it never logs me out. Methinks ld3 is doing something wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happened approximately two weeks ago because that's when the forum software was updated. I know this because it happened to me again this morning - the first time in two days. Reason? I moved from one location to another, resulting in a change of IP address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It remembers me it just logs me out everytime I sign off. Getting a tad annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinkenzo Posted 16 April 2007 Share Posted 16 April 2007 Do you actually sign out when you've finished? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lookwhaticando Posted 16 April 2007 Share Posted 16 April 2007 OK. Each time you have to log into FoxesTalk, take note of your IP. Go to whatsmyip.org to find out what your IP is. Take note of your IP (it's in huge text at the very top of the page). The next time you're asked to sign in again, go to whatsmyip again and take note of the IP. If the IP address has changed, then this is the simple reason you need to sign in each time - it's because your IP is changing often. Solution? There isn't one.

Hmm, sounds like a whole lot of effort to find out something that I can't even solve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all... if your IP doesn't change, then it's clearly something else... which might be solvable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
