Unable to stay logged in?

For the last 2 or 3 days I'm immediately logged out from the forums after logging in. Not sure why but I was able to stay logged in on incognito mode. Have been having this issue both on computer and mobile. Have reset cookies and cleared cache, but as soon as I get the you've been logged in screen, it refreshes and I'm logged out. Something seems kinda broken.

I found cookies in Chrome, on both a laptop and phone- you may have missed them.

I still have not figured anything out. On Chrome and IE (yuck) I still can't even stay in on the PC. Incognito mode on the phone in Chrome is the only way I've found but only works for a few minutes every 24h. It's a conspiracy I say! The Reptilians are behind it all!

Apples' Safari says "this is an unsecured site".

Chrome as well, though that just means the difference between http:// and https://. Not sure if this used to be https or not.

Oddly, I was autologged in on incognito mode on the PC after having used the phone earlier. Think I at least found my work around for now. :lol:

Not exactly. It was https before for the credentials page. The message is more to do with the Server certificate I suspect. Possibly the forum admin had to move the software within the hosting environment and the https certificate for encrypted credentials didn’t populate or transfer.

But I’m speculating...

I've been having this issue as well, and purging the cookies and cached data only partially fixed it.

I just now manually logged into the site as https://forum.weldingtipsandtricks.com/ and it seems to be working, but the security warnings are complaining about non-secure elements on the pages, probably images.
That said, if it'll stay logged in, and quit logging me out when I open threads, I'll put up with the small warnings!

Hey thanks :D that finally worked for me. I haven't been able to log in for a long time.

Don't know why https made a difference, but it worked :)

We've been having issues with cookies on the site since we moved to https. I thought I resolved this some time ago, but I've seen some new complaints about it, so I'll be working to fix it over the next couple days. In the meantime, if you have trouble logging in, delete your cookies and make sure you're on https (may have to type it in manually in the address bar, the forum software hates redirects so this the better option for now)
