Since Simon did the recent updates I am having trouble with the log in.

If I leave the site then come back later it tells me that I need to log in to post or see some sections.
When I do that it says that I am already logged in and will let me post.

Works fine for me 😉

I'd be tempted to log out, clear the cookies relating to the site in your browser and then log in again.

If that doesn't work, I'm sure Simon will have a look at it.

Hello again darkness, my old friend...

I had just a similar happen to me. It said I wasn't logged in and when I attempted to log in it said was already logged in.

I had a similar problem initially, I removed the old bookmark and saved a new one, now all is happy, maybe this is the problem elsewhere?

Windows 7, Chrome. My XP machine hasn't had the problem though (also Chrome).

Looking into this now.

If things like text size look a bit funny for a while don't panic - it's related.

OK, that should be fixed now.

One small typo in the code that checked for an existing login on the old pages (forum etc). The equivalent code on any newly rebuilt pages (home, mine search, mine details, album, photo and all the new registration pages etc) was fine.

It explains why having clicked a forum link (an old format page) and then being told to log in when you tried to post; that when going to the login page (new format page) it told you that you were already logged in.

Very confusing for anybody experiencing it. Sorry for any inconvenience.

No worries. I have been - he says, tempting fate - amazed there haven't been more issues given how wide ranging the changes to the site were last week.

Mr Mike spotted that 'posts by user' weren't working; and I found that the edit photo / add captions tool was broken. Plus this. Rather less than I was dreading!
