Question

Remember Me?

I read this by a MOD in another thread...

"When you log in to the forums (either manually or automatically based on a "Remember me" cookie)"

How the hell do we get that "Remember Me" cookie to work?!  Not once since the Jive switch have I been automatically logged in, despite checking that box nearly every single time.  If I close my browser, I HAVE to manually log in again, every time.  That SUCKS!

I want my auto logins back!  Like everyone had in the old forums.

    Works for me in firefox and chrome.  Haven't had to login for a few days.

    Youve probably checked this; but just in case you havent:  In Firefox for example; under options/privacy its possible you are set to not remember cookies.  Make sure that is not the case.

    Cookies are definitely enabled.  Have always been.  You can't get into the forums if they're not.

    Still doesn't work.

    Not just enabled - Set to be remembered (which is the default). FF can be set to accept cookies, but set to release them when the browser is closed.  Make sure it is set to rememebr cookies until expired.   Since this is the default; its likely you are setup correctly, but its worth checking since the alternative would be something peculiar with your account.

    Log out of the forums per the instructions in the FAQ: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/525685?tstart=0

    Log back in with the "Remember me" option selected.

    Go to http://forums.adobe.com/community/general/forum_comments/testing and check what it says in the debugging information at the bottom. If both RMID and AUID are true, you should be able to close your browser and still be logged in when you reopen it. At that time AUID should be false, but RMID true.

    Correction: AUID should still be true after the restart, but should switch to false 24 hours after the login. Either way, you should be logged in automatically as long as either AUID or RMID is true.

    OK, I did both sign outs.  I closed my browser.  I removed all current cookies.  I logged into the forums checking the Remember Me box.  I now have both cookies mentioned.  I will close my browser, and see what happens.

    Try it again... seems to be working for some (most). Alternatively, delete all cookies and log in again. Judging by posts, your mileage may vary
