+PandyBat Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I check the forums several times a day. I have to log in every time I leave and come back if I want to reply to something or look up information. I don't know what's causing me to have to log in every time.....cookies are set, etc, but it would be nice for the site to take me back to what I was looking at previously instead of taking me to the forums page after I log in. Very frustrating to have to search for what I was looking at without having to use the back button. BTW..dialup sucks! Link to comment
Jeremy Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 You got me. Nothing has changed and I continue to be logged into the forums. Link to comment
+PandyBat Posted July 21, 2004 Author Share Posted July 21, 2004 Oh...I'm not saying it's the site that's causing me to have to log in. I'm saying I wish after logging in, I could be taken to the page that I was looking at instead of the forums page and then have to search for the topic I was wanting to make a reply. No biggie really...just kind of annoying. Link to comment
Jeremy Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Ah. Invison Power Board is an out-of-the-box application, and they're always looking for recommendations on how to improve it. Try posting the suggestion in their forums. Their new version may have this functionality. I haven't looked into upgrading our software since they are coming out with version 2. I normally wait 5-6 months after the release to make sure they have all the bugs worked out. I gave up on customizing forum software a long time ago. It only ends in tears. Link to comment
+PandyBat Posted July 21, 2004 Author Share Posted July 21, 2004 Thanks...I'll let them know. I got my logging in issue resolved....I use CookieWall and there was one cookie that I didn't accept (doh!), so it's not really going to be a problem anymore. But in the future, it would be nice to have the previously viewed feature. Sometimes when a site does upgrades, it causes everyone to have to log in because they were automatically logged out because of the upgrade or software change. I don't know how I lost my last forum cookie but it was my fault for not accepting it when it popped up in CookieWall. Link to comment
