SwanR Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Has anyone else noticed that they’re being asked to accept something almost every time they come to the site? Seems to have been happening over the last couple of days. And this morning the site can’t seem to decide whether I’m logged in or signed out. One minute I’ve got one view, the next it’s asking me to sign in but if I reload the page without doing anything I’m back as I was. Not a major problem just a minor irritation but I wondered whether anyone else had seen this. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meantime Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Happened on the phone this morning and just now when I tried on the PC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaughan Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Me too. I notice I am no longer warned that my password needs changing. Normally I find I have no need to sign on again when I return to the site, unless I have just cleared the "history" on my computer. I have never known whether I have to "log off" when I leave the site and usually don't bother. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikertov Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Me too - thought it was a setting gone funny on my phone at first, but now clearly a forum issue 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldgregg Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 We rolled out an update yesterday for the cookie warning, I suspect they didn’t do enough QA before release…. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouldy Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Yep, me too! And, I can’t sign in on my phone, just on my tablet. Trying to sign in on my phone results in a loop of clicking to sign in, ticking to accept the terms and returning to the original screen! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears that when it’s reporting you as being logged out you’re actually logged in. Given the notification that went out with the update (and the wording), it has ‘junior developer’ written all over it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted June 17, 2023 Author Share Posted June 17, 2023 It’s a bit more of a pain than I first thought because it’s not showing unread items correctly now. I also got a random message notification earlier as well for something from a long time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webntweb Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 If I close the window and then reopen it, it asks me to log in but when I then click on an item it shows me logged in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZimbiIV Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Is this fault caused by. 1 Artificial Intelligence or 2 Ineffective Adolescent? Either way I think we need a 7 year old to fix it. paul 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get that, but fixing one issue and creating another isn’t helpful to anyone. Do they not test the updates before releasing them, or is that the end user’s responsibility?

oldgregg Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 They should do, yeah. Unfortunately I think time pressures etc unfortunately tend to dictate release schedules. I would expect an update within the next few days that'll solve this bug and others. If you haven't already, I'd suggest clearing your browser cache just to rule out any issues there.
