Yeah, it remembers me to a point. Once I close the windows, it's game over man. No, I don't clear my cookies when I close the browser either.

I stay logged into many other sites without any issues.

How are you logging in? Try using your username instead of your email.. Why it takes either is a mystery to me, but I've never had a problem, on 5 different computers, staying logged in.

It makes sense to take either. The old site used email to login as I recall, whereas forum software like this typically want just a screen name.

My guess is if you use email address it does a lookup to find your user id and get you logged in. However, somewhere in that process it expects the username, and all it has is this email address which isn't a user name so the proper cookie never gets set.

That is my total "I have no proof" thought, just having an understanding of the innards of other forum software out there.

Default How do I find my Username or change it?

I cannot stay logged in on a PC running XP and FireFox and a Mac laptop OS 10.5.6.

Is my username the same as my log in name? I have been logging in with my email address so long I have forgot what's what.

your user name is CanAm Eight. Try that in the login screen, and your normal password.

You can't change your user name with this software, but I'd be happy to change it for you. email and password, you can change in your User CP, under Edit Details, there's a button for Change Email/Password.

If you'd like, email me your desired user name, and I'll make the change for you.

Thanks!
