Something seems to be different on WTW now.

 

I am frequently asked to sign in, even though I have checked the 'remember me' box.   It's happening more times than not, plus happening on several different machines.

 

Is this to be expected, or is something hinky?

Hmmm.... That's strange.  Especially odd if you used to stay logged in but now it's not.

When did this start?

 

It's not happening to me...I wonder if others are experiencing this.

 

Please chime in, folks.

And you can stay logged in to other similar websites?  It's just an issue with WTW?

Mark,

 

I've not experienced any problems with other forums, just WTW, so it's not like the authentication cookies are all getting blown away.    Between the time that I originally posted, and now, it has logged me off my iMac again.

I thought it was me because i had to get this site and all the rest of my usual internet world used to my new lp. Yep, It was happening to me since i got my new lap top too; i would have to go thru the whole log in process every time i wanted to add my usual two cents, then  for a while  i was logged in all the time-without doing anything to log in-i would come on to this site already logged on even after i logged off on a prior session! Now it's back to what it used to be, when i come on the site, --- i'm not logged in until i log in myself like it used to be,, but w/o having to give my handle and password each time.

I just "reported" this topic, which sends a notification to Admins.

We'll see if they can offer any insight or, better yet, help.

Just another datapoint. Left the iMac logged in to WTW, came back. Did a refresh, and it wanted me to log in again. The iPad was also logged in at the same time, it stayed logged in.

Another observation.   If I am not logged in, the posts (at least in this thread) appear to be in the future.   My computer clock is correct.  Does the system use a different time stamp for guests?
