Have to Log-in Every Visit to the Board??

Post by dalemccl »

Not sure this question is in the right forum topic - I normally read and post in the Video Studio forum, but the question doesn't seem appropriate for that forum.

Sometime in the last week or two I now find that when I visit the Video Studio forum, I have to log in if I want to post. Previously the board kept me logged in between visits.

Now each time I log in, I checkmark the option to keep me logged in, but it doesn't -- I still have to log-in for each visit if I want to post.

What would have caused this to happen after several months of remaining logged in all the time?

Oh, I wanted to add something to my previous post, but the EDIT button is missing, so am adding this as a reply.

Possibly related to the log-in problem is another problem. I no longer receive e-mails when a reply is posted in a topic in which I have posted a reply, or was the original poster. These e-mails stopped coming about the same time as the log-in problem started.

Thanks for the quick response, but when I clicked the link it took me to the forum index. "Important Annoucements" was at the top. There were three sub-forums/topics under Important Annoucements:

Problem with User Web Board - Clicked on it and it said it can only be read by Administrators.

Web Board Rules..... etc. Read it but no recent posts about the log-in problem I am having.

Please Read Before Posting and FAQ's. I didn't see anything relevent.

Am I looking in the wrong place?

A couple of weeks ago Corel merged the old Ulead forum, which we had been using, to one of their servers. Since then there have been numerous problems that have yet to be addressed.

Thanks, Jeff. That was probably what was in sjj1805's link and I just missed it. I'll be patient and await the eventual server fix.

I hadn't seen any other posts about this specific log-in problem so thought maybe I was the only one having it.

I am surprised that I haven't really seen any either. The mods and senior members have been discussing these issues the last couple of weeks, trying to get Corel to take notice and fix them.
