Hello folks,
OK, the reason that people were not able to stay logged in even though you checked the "Log me in automatically each visit" box is because the forums were contained in an iframe tag.
Apparently browsers reading an iframe imbedded into a html page treat any cookies given out as 3rd party and are not letting them thru.
So I've changed ONLY the forums page to a regular frame page. Thus keeping the navigation bar on the side and the forum in the main window. You'll notice a couple small changes to the website when on the forums page
1) The nav menu shifts a few inches to the right... this is because I can't code a frame page quite the same as the rest of the site. It should be a very minor shift
2) The forum is wider and scrolls automatically when needed. This should be a bounus for everyone
3) You should stay logged in for a few days at least, even if you close the browser and open it up later. And I think even thru a reboot of your machine.
If you guys have any problems with the new design please let me know.
