Hello Danny,

Quote:

That is my point . . . used to be able to sign in, click remember me and then log out, and the next time I signed in all I had to do was start typing the first letter of my login name and the blanks would fill in the remainder of my login name and my password automaticaly. That is what I call remembering me.




That is not what "remember me" is. What YOU are talking about are functions that your web browser does, not what the forum software does. They are described a little differently in each web browser, but there are two features of interest:

(1) Remembering text entered into forms (that is forms, not forums)
(2) Remembering passwords entered into forms

When the forum changed, the url of the login form changed, and so the data would have needed to be re-saved by your browser. But perhaps you had since disabled the option in your browser to save passwords.

The settings of interest in Internet Explorer are in Tools | Options | Content. In the Auto-complete section, click the Settings button. Make sure that Forms and passwords are both checked. In the testing I just did, even though I had passwords checked, IE wasn't remembering them. But I checked "Ask me each time", then logged in, and THEN it remembered my password.

Perhaps my IE security level doesn't allow passwords to be saved unless the "Ask me" setting is enabled.

If that doesn't work for you, you could try deleting your auto-complete history (if you're willing to do that).

I believe that "Remember Me" is working correctly though, which is that if you don't log out, the next time you visit the site you don't need to log in. But if anyone finds otherwise, let us know - maybe there is something else happening.
