0 Designer1 Posted July 29, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) I noticed I was logged out on both my phone and my home PC today. Phone - Samsung Galaxy S6 default browser. Home PC - Mac with OS X El Capitan and using Firefox. **EDIT** Just gone on to VT on my phone and have been logged out again. Edited July 29, 2016 by Designer1 phone update Link to comment
0 villarule123 Posted July 29, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted July 29, 2016 Tried Firefox and still the same. Cleared my cache again and it's actually worse now, I'm never logged in on the main page, only when I click on a sub forum. Link to comment
0 villarule123 Posted July 29, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted July 29, 2016 Think I've fixed this now. Edit the bookmark so it opens https://www.villatalk.com and it should work. Villatalk.com doesn't work. Link to comment

Villatalk.com doesn't work. If you jump back and forth between the http and https versions it will keep logging you out. There's supposed to be a hard redirect to https so I'll report that to the hosts. Can anyone else verify that this is causing the issue for them too? Make sure your bookmarks (people still use bookmarks?) are https. Link to comment

Make sure your bookmarks (people still use bookmarks?) are https. 99% sure that https vs http is causing the issue and that just going to https:// keeps you logged in between the devices (tested just now). As you mentioned in your own post, the redirect isn't working properly and anyone coming from their own history bar or bookmarks is getting logged out. 1 Link to comment

I asked people to verify that and only you've responded. Looks like that's the fix until they fix the backend. 1 Link to comment

My apple devices using safari all have synched bookmarks that have http as the address, and the win 7 pc at work prolly has https. changing the iPad bookmark to https seems to have fixed it. Bookmarks are very useful. 1 Link to comment

Clear cookies and cache and make sure you are going to https://www.villatalk.com/ and NOT http://www.villatalk.com/ 2 Link to comment
