After trying to post a new question this morning, the Message Board asked me to login with my password again... Why, I was here a few days ago and at that time like so many times before, I checked the "Remember Me" option.
Today after reentering my email address and password and getting logged in, I Signed Out and tried a second time. Now I'm here sending you a note...
I'm using Chrome browser, same one as a week ago when I posted about Markup not working. At that time following your instructions, I refreshed the cache and Markup started working. But I do not believe from memory I had to re-login and the system allowed me to post a reply to you saying it works.
In Chrome when I view the saved passwords, I see two entries for your site, support.west-wind.com and another for west-wind.com.
So here we are less than a week later and I needed to re-enter my password. Something is not working as expected...
No big deal unless it is causing others problems too?
The timeout for cookies is 15 days since the last time you entered your username and password (ie. when you logged in). I bumped this just recently so it's possible you may have still had the 7 day cookie and your time was up.
You can check the cookie in the Chrome Dev Tools (or other browser - check ont he Application tab and look for the wwt
cookie). There's no rolling expiration any longer, the cookie will expire when it times out.
There have been a few changes around cookies in Web Connection 7 such as using HTTP only cookies for session cookies, but that should not affect the lifetime of existing cookies.
