Try changing your cookies to

phpbb3_o2x9m

Then use the board link 'delete all board cookies'

ok, made the change but have to wait to hear back from the members to see if it's fixed.

i didn't know it was an issue as i never use the auto login function.

i went to my site a couple of minutes ago and i was not logged in anymore, so i'm now waiting to see if the A.B. setting will work.

just checked on my site and auto login still don't work. but the cookie seems to remember the style information as i'm working on a new style and i have a different one for default and the style i'm working on came up instead of the default one. it's just not remembering the login.

If you are checking the 'Log me on automatically each visit' box when doing your login and it still doesn't work then it's your portal or one of the installed MOD causing the issue.

this happens if i use the board index login and the login link as well. but i'll remove the portal to see if it will fix it.

i found out what my issue was.

it was this line

Code: Select all

$user->session_begin();

in the modified shout.php file from the ajax chat i have on my site

all fixed
