Staying logged in issue.

Post by Rondo »

Hello,

I visit this site every day and for the last week or two I'm forced to log in in every single time (even though I have the "Remember me" box ticked). Is there something you could do about it because nothing has changed on my end, I've never had this issue before and it's starting to get really annoying?

P.S. I couldn't even post this because I had to log in again.

Same here, I brought this up over on discord a few days back, but everyone there "swore" it was working correctly and fine for them, and I couldn't really prove that is wasn't a "me problem" so I let the matter die, glad to see it's not just me though!

I'm gonna need some more info to try and narrow down what the issue is, I've tried across 7 browsers and 2 PCs and haven't been able to replicate the issue, but that doesn't mean I don't believe you when you say you have a problem.

Hit me up on Discord or in PM and let me know the following:

  • Browser and version

  • Extensions installed on the browser

  • Settings within the browser (not all of them, mainly just those related to tracking and cookies)

  • Cache settings

Also, does this happen on any other websites you visit, specifically phpBB-powered sites, because it may be related to a recent update that was rolled out

After reconfiguring how sessions are created and stored in the web browser I was able to iron out a few issues. So far all of my tests have been consistently passing for the last 36 hours.

If you are still having issues staying logged in, remove all cookies related to OCT and force a full refresh on the site (ctrl+F5) and login once more. If you find after a few hours (usually between 4 and 6) you are being logged out, please let me know.

Cheers

I've been logged in for about 36 hours as well, knocks on wood it might be fixed now.

Unfortunately, I'm not that lucky. After 15 hours everything seemed fine but after 24 hours I had to log in again.

Such thing has never happened to me before and this is the only site I'm having problems with. I'm really curious what has changed on your side that could've caused this?

BTW, was the human verification always there because I've never noticed it and I think the problems started when I started noticing it (and I also think I'm grasping at straws trying to find a connection ;) )

Anyway, thank you for looking into it, @Seneekikaant.

Yeah, me too. I think I'll just change my password to something short and simple so I wouldn't have to reach for My Little Black Book of Passwords and type in a string of weird symbols and numbers each time I visit this site ;)
