Although not a common problem, issues with getting logged into the site are extremely frustrating so here are a few pointers to fix login problems.
For other browers, or if the above does not work: You can do this with the page at www.fullfatrr.com/delete_forum_cookie.php Click the big red link towards the bottom underneath the diagnostic info and allow the page to do its thing and reload. PLEASE NOTE that this will log you out. If you do not know your password or are not sure please contact me via the email address below. If you continue to have problems, do email me: martin@fullfatrr.com |

On a related subject why does the system log me off, sometimes every day, sometimes after a few days. When I log back on, and select New Posts, the system says there aren't any when I know there are. Ron B. VK2OTC

I get the same thing. I use an iPad and it seems to happen when I clear the history. |

That would be because by clearing your history you take out your login details , here the internet stops entirely for random periods and it appears to do the same thing but we don't know why and on bad weeks like when it's running between 0 mbds and 0.2 mbds that can several times an hour or just a day so I don't think the problem is with the sever . 2008 MY Supercharged

I have a very good 30 Mbps broadband cable internet connection and rarely have issues. I don't clear my history and it doesn't happen on any other forum I frequent. I rarely need to clear cookies. It happens on both iPad and PC. Ron B. VK2OTC

No, that would happen if you clear cookies, not history. Ron B. VK2OTC 2003 L322 V8 Auto 2007 Yamaha XJR1300 Previous: 1983, 1986 RRC; 1995, 1996 P38A; 1995 Disco1; 1984 V8 County 110; Series IIA |

It's been reported on DISCO3 as well, and it seems there is a recent iOS update which has mucked up persistent forum logins

It's happening on my PC as well as iPad but it doesn't happen with any other forum I frequent, e.g., http://www.pentaxforums.com/, http://www.aulro.com/, http://www.stromtrooper.com/, http://www.yamahaxjrownersclub.com/; http://www.rangerovers.net/forum/, etc. on either the PC or iPad.

Other sites use other software which don't have this problem. They probably have lots of other niggles though |

Hmm, yes, I think they all, except http://www.yamahaxjrownersclub.com/, use vBulletin. The XJR forum uses phpBB like you.

I've had this problem a LOT with my iPad. Solution: use Chrome for the forum, not Safari. Ingot the latest iOS update and things are still good (touch wood!) with Chrome. Safari never worked here for me. |

I don't think it's iOS related. I haven't used my iPad today and when I just came onto the forum with my PC, I'd been logged out again.
