Remember me or auto login for this forum

Remember me or auto login for this forum

ChuckLuChuckLu Posts: 53Questions: 8Answers: 0

Hi,
I find this site can not remember my credential.
I will shutdown my computer before I go to bed.
When I restart my computer next day and open the forum, then I have to re-input the login and password again.
It's boring. Could you provide the feature for remember or auto login?

    Hi @ChuckLu ,

    It does remember the login - I haven't logged into my account for weeks. Plus, most browsers store login credentials too...

    Hi @colin ,
    I tired again, and it still can not remember me in firefox browser.
    I did not get a popup to save the credential.
    However when I log on another website, the firefox will detect it, and ask me to save the credential or not.

    I also tried on chrome browser, it works. The chrome browser can detect that I am logining a website and ask me to save credential or not.

    I am not sure if it's the compatibility problem with firefox.
    Maybe you can test this with firefox, thanks.

    Are you using the "Login / Register" link at the top of the page, or the forum's own sign in option? They are a little different.

    Also how each browser detects and stores information for auto login is a little different - it sounds like there might be a compatibility issue with Firefox, although I have no idea what!

    Hi @allan,
    I am using the "Login/Register" link at the top of the page.
    What did you mean by "forum's own sign in option" ? Maybe I can try it.

    The the site menu at the left of the page there is a "Forums" link. When not signed in it will show a "Sign In" sub option.

    Hi @allan,
    I tried again with the "Login/Register" link at the top of the page.
    It seems that you have provide a new login dialog, this time it has the checkbox for remember me.
    And now firefox can detect the login, and save the credential.

    It works now.
