    Hi,

    sometimes (actually quite often) when I go to forums.digitalpoint.com and try to login it just fails.. (I get redirected to the forum index and I'm not logged in, correct user & pass 1000% (also no error message)).
    Might it be that there's some bug?
    Did someone experience the same?

    Yes I've actually experienced this a few times. I usually get around it one of two ways, firstly by choosing the "remember me", or second by clicking the link to redirect to the forum immediately after logging in, instead of waiting to be redirected automatically.

    I can't say the problem persists though, it may happen a couple times, but it will eventually let me in regardless of what I do.

    When I click this "redirect to the forum" link the chances I'm not logged in are even bigger here..
    I will try the "remember me" function, thanks for the tip

    "Remember Me" button works the best.

    I have the same issue actually where sometimes I can't login. It says I've successfully logged in, then it just brings me back to the previous page however I'm still not logged in.

    Yes that's exactly what I'm talking about.
    So I guess there is some issue when I'm not the only one.

    make sure you are not trying to login to some spam websites which are designed exactly as digital point to retrieve the login details of the members.

    Personally, I never had problem with this forum while loggin in.

    I have the same problem also.. Experienced it about an hour ago.
    I try to login but nothing. No error or message just doesn't login and goes to the homepage.

    It's a vBulletin related thing ...

    When you're logged in to other vBulletin websites and then log out, your cookies get cleared.

    When you're logged in to another vBulletin forum, the cookies are used to store log-in as well. If you have the same username then it might collide.

    That's my theory anyways.

    Is it? Always seems to be a problem for me when I'm on multiple forums. Otherwise logging in is fine.

    Lol yes you have to tick "remember me" , don't hit enter, click log in , and click the redirect button. It works all the time. If you press enter and dont tick remember me, it wont work. I don't know its its just DP or other vbulletin websites.
