I've enabled SSL logins on Feb 2 and a minor version update on Feb 28. I don't notice any cookie problem though. Anybody else have this problem?

OliverH Posted March 16, 2017 Author Share Posted March 16, 2017 Stiil having the problem. There're three cokkies which have a short lifetime: ips4_ipsSessionFront valid: end of session ips4_ipsTimezone valid: end of session ips4_has JS valid: 24h from last logon Maybe it's the last one. When each device is not logged in in 24h again you need to login again on this device. My first impression was the last connected device keeps the automatic login - which is not true. /edit: Played arround with the cookies. Deleting ips4_ipsSessionFront is the one causes the relogin (signin) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did this problem start for you? Maybe someone more savvy about these things like @esaj can figure this out for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about. But definitely since 2-3 days. I'm using the forum on 3 devices: MacBook with Firefox (Option: keep cookies until Firefox is closed) iPad with Safari iPhone with Safari On the iOS devices no Hotfix/ update to the OS / Webkit was installed by me. I would say it worked fine for me after you did the https protected login. Maybe it's only the problem that I'm not as heavy in the forum as some time ago so I'm faced with the session cookie right now. Maybe @Marty Backe is at least inside the session lifetime up with his devices or shares the cookies between the devices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see if anyone else has (or doesn't have) the same issue. Hope others can chime in on this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One PC goes 2-3 days between uses with this forum. No problems, and I don't remember the last time I was forced to log in. From what I know Google's Chrome does not sync cookies across devices. I only use Chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Eucist Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Not sure if this is related somehow, but after switching the forum to encrypted logins back in Feb 2, the previous "stored passwords" you have in your browser won't work for the encrypted one and you have to "store it again" for the new "https" url one.

Jag_Rip Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I have this on my devices since some time around every 2 weeks, but I have not found anything reproducable to drill down on the root cause. At some point I have to log in again on whatever device. Its not that problematic to do, its just strange that it happens. I use the forum on 3 systems as well, windows 7 with FF, windows 8.1 with FF and android nougat with FF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
