Post subject:  Automatic login to forums not working

Since the change to splasmstrands.com for the forums I have been unable to login automatically despite clicking the automatic login box and clearing cookies.
Is this an intentional change or just a problem I'm having?

We're seeing the same issue here as well. It's not intentional so we'll work toward finding a fix.

Make sure to check the Admin Control Panel acp/security settings and make sure you have

Allow persistent logins:= Yes
Determines whether users can autologin when they visit the board.

Persistent login key expiration length (in days): = 0
Number of days after which persistent login keys are removed or zero to disable.

Validate browser: = Yes
Enables browser validation for each session improving security.

Yes, that had all been verified previously. The situation is complicated by the fact that we've recently had to funnel all Forum visits through Cloudflare because of persistent bot attacks, which appears to be interrupting automatic logins. We're still working on finding a workaround and will institute it as soon as we can.

I'm on several forums which have all been subject to bot attacks but they all still allow automatic logins. In fact splasmstrands is the only one which doesn't. What's the problem with splasmstrands which can't be solved?

Other sites may be using any number of other alternate methods of traffic filtering. We've yet to find a solution for automatic login that plays nicely with Cloudflare but we'll keep looking into it.
