I have to log in any time I visit the site. I check the box to stay logged in but it must be not working. My machine works well on other sites with that option so I know my computer will accept the log in cookie. Whats up with this. Also still do not get mail telling me of new posts. I have set my status up to get them?

Hi HVAC,

Yeah, I believe the stay logged in box is working, or at least I have not received complaints about it. I do not know what you are using for your machines security but you might need to list this site as a safe site. I know with McAfee I had to do that. What OS are you using, I know some with Vista have a problem with staying logged in.

As for the email site response notices, very few folks are getting them, LOL, and I am not one either! I have mentioned this to Mark, hopefully that issue can/will be resolved.

Will mention this to Mark again, or feel free to send him an email.

Worked on the e-mail issue more today. I think we may try sending out the e-mail thru another server. I'm on the road for Easter, so will look into that option further after Easter.

I still also have to log in all the time. It's inconsistent though, sometimes I can go for a day and not log in and then it could be several times a day.

And another issue is having to log in twice before it actually "accepts" the log in!

When I come to the site as a Guest I see 3 "Log in" places.

One is at the btm. of the index page.
Another says"Log in" and the third is Log in to check messages.

1 and 2 show a window for name/password.

When I click on the "check messages" it signs me in without any windows.

I have had to log in manually lately too! Just the past day or so. The little icons in the forum are not showing up yellow showing that there are unread threads there too.

today it worked fine....The only thing I did different was to let the home page fully load before I clicked the link to the forum.

Hi Folks,

I feel bad that I can not help in this area. I have limited control on this and not nearly enough knowledge of these sites to even try to figure it out.

A couple of the quirks I have had I found to be from settings in my computer or security settings. May not be the case for the rest of you.

What I can say is please email Mark personally.
