Tick Log me on automatically each visit and bookmark here: search.php?search_id=newposts. I just checked it and it works fine.

Also make sure you don't have a browser setting that's purging the cookie every time you close your browser.

Now I can't seem to figure out how to replicate that and have to sign in everytime I come to this site.

any suggestions?
BB: You obviously had this page bookmarked, not this one, and had the "keep me logged on" box checked.

I seem to remember you were also going to jacurutu.com, not http://www.jacurutu.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. Back when we did the updates we crossed a few links and it used to take you to the Distant Soil site.

Nek: Never could figure out your problem. the best Raggy could do is figure that it's some setting on your host's site, but I think I asked if you tried http://www.jacurutu.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and never heard back.

I think Lundse had similar problems for a time, and his just kind of cleared up.

EDIT: Just checked it. Going to plain old "jacurutu.com" takes you to the board. Going to http://www.jacurutu.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; will keep things opened up for you. You guys should change where your bookmark points to http://www.jacurutu.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. I am guessing you only have "jacurutu.com" in there. Now I remember, when we fixed that link to stop pointing at Distant Soil we could not make it go to the real address. Some problem with DNS. Pretty sure I posted about this somewhere here.

Sorry, I should've updated you on this because it always worked on the T(A)U site. It does work here now as well (It's been fine for a few months now). I never did figure out what the difference was.

FWIW, you should also use "www.jacurutu.com" and not "jacurutu.com". The latter will never remember you.
