auto-login settings?

[xteife]

The old site remembered me when I came back after a few days (and a lot longer), but even with the "remember me" box checked, it makes me login after like a day or so of not having visited the forum. Can the expiration of this cookie be extended? Thanks.

Gerald,

I found a setting called "Persistent Login Length" and set it to 40 days (was disabled)

Let me know if it doesn't work for you.

Excellent. Thanks!

Let me know if it doesn't work for you.

Not a big deal, but it still is not recognizing me when I come back to the page. Is this happening to others?

It recognizes me each time, both at work and at home.

The auto login works fine for me on one of my home computers and at work.

On my other home computer, this site is completely F'd. It has not worked correctly ever since the site was upgraded with the new forum. I can only get to the old home page and old forum. If I type in the new forum address I get a page not found error. I have tried clearing all cookies, history, temp internet files, deleting and reinstalling my browser, etc. and it still does not work right.

I guess I can't complain then , eh?

Justin,

Thats really weird. Could you do me a favor (if your in windows) go to a command prompt (start > run > "cmd")

Then type "ping porcmtbclub.org"

Let me know what you end up seeing.

I remember a few months back someone advised adding porc to the "hosts" file because of the DNS problems we were having. I wonder if you have a hosts entry pointing you at telerama.

Check out C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts (open the file in notepad) and make sure there are no entries for our website. If there are just remove them and restart your browsers.


Hope this helps.

If all of that still doesn't work then add these 2 lines to your hosts file and save it

74.54.249.224 www.porcmtbclub.org
74.54.249.224 porcmtbclub.org

that should take care of your problem on your home PC.

Nick, you were right it was the hosts file. I did have a lot of problems back then which is why I added it to the hosts file, and that was why I could not get to the new site now. I deleted that line and now it works great! Thanks!
