Logging in

I know this has been mentioned before, I read it somewhere a while back,
but with the upcoming revamp, will the "remember me" part of the log in be fixed ?

I've managed to get around it by bookmarking the "unread posts" page. That way it doesn't seem to log me out ever, and I never miss anything

The "Remember Me" function of the website will be unchanged. The ability for the site the keep a user logged in is based on the use of computer cookies. Many default browser settings prevent sites from keeping cookies past the browsing session in which they were created. One way to prevent this from happening is to make this site trusted. Generally, the security settings for trusted sites allow cookies to be written without expiring them when the browser is closed.

Each browser is a little different in how sites are added to the "trusted" list. If you have trouble or this doesn't work let me know.

That worked ... will try the trusted sites method next.
Thanks.
Added the address to trusted sites in Firefox.... no joy so far.

One other thing is the starting link. I believe that the reason bookmarking the "unread posts" method works is that this page is secured and therefore begins with "https". If your main link is just "http" then the cookies will not work. Make sure that your main bookmark is for "https://intscalemodeller.com".

Dude, what a top Banana you are

Make sure that your main bookmark is for "https://intscalemodeller.com".

visited this link and saved bookmark again.
its the sort of thing the average punter will never work out in a year.

FYI trying to use the https:// secure connection results in an error.
It appears to be broken again.

Hmm, the certificate is still valid doesn't expire for more than a month. I will dig into this and see what I can find.
