Administrator CGC Mike Posted May 12, 2023 Administrator Share Posted May 12, 2023 Hi I am going to let this thread roam around this section of the forum for a while, and I may pin it in time. A large number of people are having problems signing in to the forums. The remember me box has been an issue for a long time. Maybe 2 years? Anyhow, I wanted to post a workaround if this happens, and you get "caught up in the loop". If you try to sign in and get sent to the home page instead, you will see the above screenshot. You need to X out that popup, and sign out of the home page as shown below. Then, click on Chat Boards, check the remember me box and you will be able to sign in.

Popular Post Randall Dowling Posted May 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 12, 2023 This is the work around that I've been using for a while now. Usually comes up every couple weeks or so. OtherEric, Turnando, IcedDog and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least once per week. I have been using a different, more complicated work around. I'll try this next time.

jharvey Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 This seems to happen more often when I log into the forums on multiple computers over the course of a day or two. Logging into the forums on a 2nd computer seems to invalidate the login on the 1st computer when I later come back to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator CGC Mike Posted May 12, 2023 Author Administrator Share Posted May 12, 2023 I had a meeting with the Senior Site Reliability Engineer yesterday about this. Sharing your experiences here could help fix the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post buttock Posted May 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 12, 2023 Mike, since this is such a problem and the site engineers can't fix it, one thing that could make it slightly less painful is to remove that stupid popup asking for your email for the newsletter. That would be one less annoyance. BlowUpTheMoon, Randall Dowling, Cat and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you please bump our PM about this? It's buried by about 300 other PM's. I have a "go to" person now. Maybe we can get this straightened out.

These are showing as unread in my folder. Note the bold text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
