Problems logging in

Post by RoastedTwinkies » Mon Dec 26, 2005 8:27 pm

Is anyone else having problems logging in?

Ever since I switched to Firefox, I'm forced to log in twice to be able to fully access the forums. When I log in the first time, I can see my username, but I can't see my avatar and I don't have access to make or edit posts. Then I can fully access the forums when I type in my username and password for the second time.

I find this annoying and is there anything that can be done?

Me neither. I've used firefox for a long time and I've never had that problem with it.

and challenge, like Scheherazade,
he who reigns beneath the sod,
to spare a mortal’s breath.

I had that problem before Dan's last phpbb upgrade, but then it went away. I think if you go to a topic, hit reply, and login from that screen you only have to log in once.

Be careful with this one, there is a bit of a pun involved. Dr. Spooner described his visit to a castle: "In the center of the fortress was the Palace Court. The gated entrance to this area was the court palace."

You could also try clicking the automatic login button. I haven't had this problem here, but I have had it on other boards, and I find that helps to make that stop. And I use Internet Explorer, by the way. So I don't think it's a FireFox problem.

That doesn't seem to work. In fact when I try to log in that way, I can't log in at all o_O
