Auto-login not working properly!

I've been noticing the problem too in Firefox. Seems that www.mwsource.com/forum won't remember me, but doing it without the www will (mwsource.com/forum).

 

Probably somewhere in the forum settings.

 

EDIT: Ok, think its fixed now. Log out, then click "log-in" (don't quick login), make sure "remember me" is selected, enter your details. Wait for the page to load. Exit your browser and restart and navigate to the forums...let me know if its remembered you.

I use Opera 7.23 and I did as you suggested; It didn't automatically log me in when I opened the site after restarting my browser, but I did manage to put my pin on the map now... :)

 

EDIT: Auto-login now works. I think it's just Opera that won't register me when I use the bookmark, I have to actually click one of the forums to get logged in... So basically my problems are solved!

What's probably happening is that your bookmark points to "www.mwsource.com," while your cookie is from "mwsource.com," which is the domain that the forum links lead to, with the exception of the "Morrowind Source" and "Member Map" links in the upper-left corner of the screen (which use the non-cookied domain of your bookmark -- "www.mwsource.com").

Yup..hence why I have made the cookie globally acceptable across any TLD which contains mwsource.com - so it should work on mwsource.com, www.mwsource.com and any subdomains of mwsource.com from now on.

 

Only thing stopping it from working now would be an old cookie which hasn't been updated with these new settings - so if its still not working, I'd clear out your cookies.

Well, I haven't had any problems, thankfully. I think most of the IE6 users are fortunate that cookies are stored sans www and IE doesn't really care much if the cookies have it or not. I could be wrong, however, but I feel that I haven't noticed much in terms of problems with auto-logins whereever I have them.
