Forum Bugs(Status: Reported)

Post by Andy »

ive read a few posts on here about problems with forums, i also have had problems with the forums

they cant seem to keep me logged in. i click the login automaticly (or somthing similar) but its been going on since i signed up. never realy thought it was much of a prob till now

im guessing theres problems with read/write access in some files (Not chmod. just a general code error for storing crap). i dunno its just a wild gues

hmm andy could also be your browser settings blocking all cockies (or a firewall with built in web filtering such as ZoneAlarm Pro or Norton Internet Security) ... just add a-tractor to your trusted sites and allow it to use cockies and it will work fine :)

nothing to do with my browser settings
but it could be zonealarm thing is though... this has been going on even without zonealarm enabled. and i dont like norton watching everything(exept files im opening)

i just checked a few things and its when ever i click on the graphical form button up the top that seems to log me out.

when i click the text link (Forum Index) everything is fine so maybe if graphical forum button was changed to http://gameislands.net/tinboard/index.php everything will be fine and dandy

graphical forum buttons to point to http://gameislands.net/tinboard/
this link logs me out.. sort of. it just ask me to log in again

i have no problem with any of that
but its kinda annoying that thiers no page buttons on the topics when viewing them.
i hate needing to leave the topic and go back to the forum to read page 2 or 3 of the topic
