automatic login seems not to function with IE6

Post by chriwi » Mon Nov 23, 2009 11:33 am

Even when I set the flag "automaticly login after return" during login I am not displayed as logged in when I make an update of the page with my browser after several hours (also ohter updates where made inbetween at least one every hour). I am using still IE6 since this is preinstalled on my office PC and I am not allowed to use other software.

Its annoying...

Im not sure whats up... Its like it looses the login info right away..

Its clearly set of doing automatic logins.... I donno... Im new to doing phpBB3 and this is the newest latest version...

I found a problem with the cookie for logging in.. It was still set to my old forum location on my personal web site..

Hello Xymox,

Thanks for the fast service.
I know that it is not always easy to find and fix malfunctions fast since I also run a Forum with more than 3000 users.
But if nbody reports the malfunctions they will never be fixed.

Yes, it seems to be OK here too.

I mean 3333 registered users, but only about 150 show up during one day, the maximum was 451 in one day and 78 at the same time.
