PLEASE DON’T LOG OUT

[dedmiston]

If you use Chrome Browser or any Chromium based browser, the log in is presently broken. IF YOU LOG OUT, YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO LOG BACK IN.

I don’t know why or what’s up, but I assume a recent Chrome update isn’t compatible with our ancient forum software.

My only advice at this point is to not log out, because you won’t be able to log back in with Chrome. Other browsers don’t appear to be affected.

I did this on 5/16 and it fixed the issue. However: Today, 4 days later, Google Chrome ceased opening ANY web page. Even its own settings page. It flagged EVERYTHING as non-secure and would display NOTHING. Now, I don't KNOW this is a result of this change, but I fixed the Google Chrome issue by uninstalling Chrome, rebooting, and downloading Chrome again. When I looked at this setting, it was set back to DEFAULT.

Beware

I've logged in several times using Google chrome recently, no problems so far

I had to close out and earlier today I could not get in (using Chrome). 15 minutes ago, it let me in. Hopefully the problem is solved. But thanks for posting the original because I think I was the first to read the original post so I did not log out for a couple days. then my computer decided it needed to do an update.

This advice, and the solution, should maybe be a Sticky.

So far my ancient HP lap top running Firefox has had no problems.

I have multiple computers here and one of them is fully logged out of everything. Tested it today. Would not log in. Logs in fine to other places.

Consider this a status of issue post.. Not a complaint

3.EXIT and re-start Chrome browser.

Try to 'Login' to the Forums."

Worked for me

I run Firefox and have had little to no issues on anything.

1492: Thanks! that worked on my two machines.

This Chrome browser workaround also works in MS Edge and Brave browsers.

What did they offer for solution?

Developer tools are useful to analyze the website server end, and not necessarily for fixing issues by the end user.

Instead, I've provided a temporary workaround that an end user can use to regain member access from Chrome browser, until the issue is addressed on forum websites.

Firefox and Safari browsers have plans on implementing similar controls in the near future.

No problem/s with a PC - however.....

Wife's Chromebook will not recognize either of our two WiFi hotspots
(which it normally does). PWs (etc.) are no help.

So may have nothing to do with RV Net forum/s.

:h

[enblethen]

One my systems, it is only happening on the RV.net and other portals. I am thinking problem on their end.
I backed out a couple updates since it started happening to no avail.

HMMMMM, another reason to own a Mac.

And I just signed up for the new Brave trial search engine when it becomes available.
