This is an FYI, in case anyone has had similar issues.

When I log in, I sometimes get taken right back to the login screen, after it says "Thank you for logging in M Kerkvliet"

About 95% of the time, if I click my "refresh" button on my browser, (I use Firefox) the next screen I get I will indeed be logged in.

vBulletin (software used for this forum) insists the problem is not theirs, and that it is a setting on the users computers, largely dealing with cookies, and how you have your browser set to deal with them. It does not seem to make any difference to my system how I set things.

Because there is more that one user of my computer, I cannot stay logged in all of the time, by clicking the "remember me" option at log in. My wife has her own username here. I think if that option is chosen, the problem is less annoying.

For now, then next time (if ever) that happens to you, just try to click the "refresh" button instead of entering your username and password over and over again.

This is still an odd bug. It has still never happened to me on the general log in. It does happen every time I log into the mod/admin application. Then I can sometimes refresh and get to where I need to be but sometimes I still have to modify the url and reenter that.
