Can't Access Forum from Mobile Device?

Post by Teresa_Rae »

I've never had problems posting on the forum from my phone in the past, but for the last few weeks, it won't work for me.

I put in my username and password and it tells me that I've been successfully logged in and my username is in the upper right as if I'm logged in (it says: Logout [Teresa_Rae]), but then if I wait just a few seconds or if I try to go to any posts/PMs, etc., it immediately logs me out; my username disappears and it goes back to saying just: Login.

It will let me login over and over again, but only for a couple seconds and then it kicks me out.

Anybody know how to fix this?

When you log in did you try checking the box that says something like "Keep me logged in for all sessions", or something like that? (I always keep that box checked so I don't have to log in each time). Good luck!

Yeah, I tried that and it doesn't make any difference :/

Thanks, though :)

Are you using the Tapatalk app of the mobile site? I haven't had any issues accessing from Tapa.

No, I don't have that app. I've always just gone to the website via Chrome.

I can't reproduce the issue either! This is Chrome on an Android phone? Can you give any more details on the your OS/device? Sorry!

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4. In the past I had no problem accessing the forum from the same phone. The operating system has not changed. This first started happening a month, maybe 6 weeks ago. I'm not having issues with any other websites.

I can't reproduce, but perhaps you could try deleting cookies - https://support.google.com/chrome/answe ... roid&oco=1

I had a similar problem on another forum with posting. My only solution was to delete the site's cookies for each session. For some reason session cookies were not being updated after first being set.

The link above is the FAQ. I don't have an Android device right now to test the process.
