Midnight

anyone else having issues with being asked for a pswd every time they log in here all of a sudden - I would think it was just my pc being goofy, but its not doing it for any of the other sites i go to that need a pswd.

probably just that...log out completely...then log back in and check the remember me box

Yes, TFP was forgetting me frequently as well (using Firefox on a Mac). It's been good the last couple of days, though; I think I did what Tecoyah said, and that fixed it.

You could also trying clearing your cookies before logging in. And, as others mentioned, check the "remember me" box.

I am.

I have my password saved at home but while at work I don't want to, because others use this computer.

And it logs me off everytime I go to make a post.

ubertuber

Out of curiosity, what browser are you guys using?

Just a note, if you're inactive for more 15 minutes, it automatically logs you out. So if you're typing up a long post, go to the Currently Active Users page and leave that open while you are typing up your post. That'll keep you active long enough that you won't have a problem with being logged out.

That is, assuming you don't have it set to remember you. If it is set to remember you, this shouldn't happen.

Using firefox here, haven't had any issues. Perhaps it's being caused by some extension you've installed?

Well I dont know about anyone else, but I didnt install anything between when I went to bed last nite and when I opened it this morning lol (actually I havent installed any extensions in a very long time)

It opened just fine when I got to work, but I went to make a post and it logged me out...I logged back in and told it to remember me and I had no more issues at work and none when I got home

yeah, if it's not the 'remember me' box - i'd check through the privacy and security options of the browser. i don't know if there are windows systems settings that will knock out your cookies periodically, but that wouldn't hurt. i'm pretty sure you can tell ie or ff not to remember cookies, or to expire them periodically.

Last week (September 18th) Firefox updated itself to version 2.0.0.7; perhaps something in the update flipped a bit somewhere?

naah. it wouldnt be an add on or an update in my case. havent updated or added anything new. and its working perfectly fine today

Though it doesn’t' sound like it, It is possible that you may have set firefox to clear cookies when you close it. Go to tools, options, check under the privacy tab, you should see a check box with "clear private data when I close firefox". If it's checked click on the box next to it "settings". See if cookies are part of what's being erased. If they are, that may be your problem. I haven’t really had any issues.

Jetée

not really wanting to start a new thread, so I thought to use this one as an all-purpose one for my queries about the site.


Would anyone happen to have the address for that newly-established TFP Radio? I was there when it was established, but hadn't thought to memorize the address.
