OK, I clicked the “Remember me” checkbox when logging in. But whenever I leave CD and come back, I’m not logged in. Not a huge problem, but I’d think that vB would have this solved by now (or my browser hates me and isn’t playing nice with PHP Session Handling *).
So, yeah, not a huge problem, but maybe look into that, and figure out if I’m just dumb, or if there’s actually a bug there.*

Wouldn’t that have to do with the cookies for your web browser?[/quote]
PHP Session Handling (from the little that I know from playing with it) works with either cookies or appending a “Session ID” to the end of the URL.
I’m using it on a small website I made, and it seems to work fine, without the SID being appended to the URL, so I don’t think it’s cookies not working, but I’m not sure.
I’ll play with my browser when I have some free time, but I just realized that I have some (not so) happy calc homework, so I’d better go do that…

I have not had this problem on three diffrent computers (login time diffrence more then a day on two of them) with IE 5.5 and 6.
It seems to me that I remember something like this happening before, and flushing the cache fixed it, but I may be wrong with that recollection.
I say clear your cache, temporary internet files, and cookies. The fact that we switched from vb2 to vb3 may have left stale cookies in your computer that may be messing something up. Who knows.
What ISP do you have? I remember issues in the past with AOL where you had to allow cookies, else it wouldn’t work due to AOL’s roaming proxies.
and for what its worth, vBulletin uses its own session handler, instead of php sessions. that makes it possible for us to get the nifty ‘whos online’ page.
Not to bring back this thread but I have never experenced logging problems, but once you installed the Gama version today, I have had logging problems. I’m using Safari.
