Constantly have to log in

Postby 4WDbits » Fri Mar 01, 2013 6:17 am

Since starting to use multiple computers (multiple locations) I have to log in almost every time I visit the forum. Sometimes the log in screen shows on the left, but am logged in, the rest of the time I have to log in. Only happens after using other computers to access ORE.

I have the same issue... As soon as you log in from another PC then go back to the first you are asked for login details again...
It may be a security thing Warren..
Maybe a MOD could let us know why it does it?

I made a change but not sure if it will have any effect. Just tried it across two computers here and didnt log me out, but then it might not be the same scenario.

Just tried again using computer and android, still have to log in each time.
Both appear with the login screen on right, but I appear to be logged in.
Its not a biggy, just a few extra clicks.

Site could be using IP address's to store logins.. soo if you are logging in from your home but is on a lan(home network) it'll log you in as same ip..
from when you last logged in.. BUT when you goto say a cafe and use theirs.. you'll have to login again..
So admins need to change a few things to allow logins from muitl ip address.. :wink:
What I reckon is happening.. Mike might be able to confirm this.. :mrgreen: otherwise im just talkin shit.. :roll: :lol:
