Casus Belli Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 So I'm going through my activities, and then I try to edit my topic, but a message pops up saying I don't have permission to use that action or something like that. I then look up in the corner where my username should be displayed, and it showed me that I was logged out. I sign back in. Later, I try to view a profile, except it showed I was logged out again!So, what's happening?

Erebus Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) Are you by an chance going back to the BZPower Archives while you're still in this forum? It will sign you out from here if you visit the Archives. Edited October 14, 2011 by Erebus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reznas Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Did you check the Remember me box? I had that happen to me too. But after I logged back in, I was fine. -Rez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grantaire Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I am pretty sure it's what Erebus said. I have been having the same trouble, and it's driving me nuts. Also, it not only logs you out here, but in the archives as well, so logging into both is a lose lose situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avohkah Tamer Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) It's happening to me as well. I logged off both forums, deleted all BZPower cookies, and logged ONLY into the new forums (with the Remember Me box checked), and I got logged out within 5 minutes of browsing the new forums. This is definitely a problem... It just happened to me literally three times while typing up this post. The worst part of it all is that Firefox's password autocomplete doesn't detect and fill the login popup frames (just the standalone login page), so I have to manually type my username and password in every single time.EDIT:I did some testing and I think I've determined a solution. In Firefox, I had several BZPower blog RSS feeds as Live Bookmarks (automatically-updating bookmarks folders). Even though the old blog URLs don't work anymore, since they point to the /forums/ directory, it's as if my browser visted the forum archive every single time a feed refreshes. In short, if you're on Firefox and you used Live Bookmarks to follow an RSS feed on the old forums, DELETE the feed folder in your Bookmarks. I haven't been signed off in over a half hour now since I did so. ~ (A VTOAHMKEARH) Edited October 15, 2011 by Avohkah Tamer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyska Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 This has happened to me four times in the last day... Quote 3DS Friend Code: 0018-0767-4231 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casus Belli Posted October 15, 2011 Author Share Posted October 15, 2011 @Erebus: I wasn't even on the archive when this happened. @Avohkah Tamer: I use Internet Explorer.

iPenguin Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 (edited) Used to happen to me too. I think if you check the "remember me" box, but not your browser's remember me function, this happens. I'm using Firefox, if it helps. EDIT: Try clearing your browser's stored passwords (or the ones related to BZP) and cookies and see if you still have the same problem.

Space: Ocean of Awe Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I keep getting logged out, too. Dunno what it is. I use Safari, and I told it to automatically fill in the info, so it's not too bad, but still quite annoying. =) Quote "Baby, in the final analyses, love is power. That's where the power's at."

P~M Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 (edited) Meh, only happens to me with the archives. Also, somebody needs to fix the archives so we can pull the BB Code from them. -- Edited October 15, 2011 by Piraka~Mistika Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iPenguin Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 If you use firefox go to the old forum and select your old topic. Then highlight the post, right click, and press "show formatting".Try that and see what happens. I am not able to get to a computer until later today, so I apologise.

Yeah, but if you use this HTML to BB code converter, it should work fine. I tried it with some of my old topics. It works pretty well for the most part. The emoticons and some minor stuff goes a little haywire, but the important parts are pretty accurate. http://www.garyshood.com/htmltobb/ Edited October 16, 2011 by iPenguin Quote Majhost sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senrab Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I'm having this problem too. I haven't visited the archives and I did check the "remember me" box but I still get logged out at random times. Quote 3DS FC: 0216 - 1922 - 2231 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For both of my old comics topics, as soon as they died I asked for them to be closed, and then I cut and pasted all the BB Code from them. Worked every time, and I could even edit and save the changes. -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
