Something doesn't work right? You have ideas for possible improvements?

lol...

go to "this computer" then your C-disc (C: ) -> Documents and settings (then maybe your personal account folder if you have Win XP) and then you find your map with cookies.
You can select all of them and delete them. Or go search for the CofC ones.

There might be an easier way, but I'm used to working with Macintosh... so that's my excuse :P

I have had the same problem since I joined the community. I have repeatedly tried clearing the cookies for the site, set my cookies to never expire all to no avail. I can stay logged in for a couple days. I have tried with both Firefox and IE, both with the same result. Any suggestions? I know it sounds lazy but I really dislike logging in so many times that I just stay a guest. Is it something with the version of PHPBB as there is one other site I visit that I run into this problem with too.

Yep, it might be a problem with the software... can't help much - something's wrong with cookies (and it causes the shoutbox problems too). I am waiting for the new version...

well do you use firefox or Safari? Or maybe Internet Explorer? Normally it should be under preferences (voorkeuren), when you click the name of your browser in the top left of your screen. And then privacy -> cookies.

But as Mahon said, it can be a problem of the software. So even when deleting your cookies, you might have to keep logging in for a while. :?

Funny, I didn't know this was classified as a "problem." It's always, always, always been this way for me no matter what browser, what setting, etc. I just thought it was a function of the forum software and learned to live with it.

You sure you don't want to use the CofC painting Project money we'll (hopefully!) raise to buy an upgrade Mahon?!:P :mrgreen:
