Must be a cookie issue. If it is not working for anyone, log out, delete any http://www.lakawa.com cookies, log in, see if that fixes it. Usuallly that will fix it. Make sure your box excepts cookies.

Must be a problem discrete to certain peoples cookie set up.

I've dumped my cookies and my cache numerous times and still have the issue with Firefox. Safari is fine.

Glad to know it isn't a problem for all

Tighe,

This is a documented problem with phpBB3 and Safari. People on the board mention the same problem. The thread was from December, so I'm surprised it's not fixed in this release of phpBB3.x. I'm still using 2.xx so i don't have the problem on my board. There is a discussion at this thread. I didn't have time to read it all but it looks you can fix in your ACP, or change a couple lines in the php code.

It does not work for me either. Weather I am at home or at work. I am using XP Pro, and Internet explorer. I have also tried to add a favorite to IE at different locations on the discussion board and it did not seem to matter. This had worked for me on another board, but not here.

My login is not persistent either, anymore. So it must be a phpBB issue. It worked awhile a go. No biggie, Tighe. Don't pull your hair out.

I've been pulling my hair out (ok actually I cut it) and with the help of a very helpful person on the phpBB forum figured it out.

There are two domains for this site: lakawa.com and windancing.com. If you want the forum to hold your login you need to access the site via lakawa.com. It's my home page and when I set up my home page I had set it up with windancing.com

If that doesn't work try dumping your lakawa cookies. Then try it again.

let me know if any of you are still having troubles.
