9 days in and still no login fix for the mobile site.

Should I start a book on it not being fixed due to the fact that it is the only version without ads plastered all over it?

Or am I being cynical?

It is not a bug to be fixed - logging in to the mobile site had been disabled permanently.

Use Beta2 skin on the main site.

For any user of IE9 struggling to login still we are working on the problem.

A workaround at the moment is to press F12 before hitting the login button and then it works fine. If you have chosen remember me then you will not need to go through that screen for a while.
That works smile

I'm now able to show the view I see on IE10.

As mentioned, white, white white..!

Yep found another thread with that info in eventually. The only bit that was truly easy to use, gone. Surprise, surprise, provided by a 3rd party. hehe

Technically it is just a scrape reformatted for your screen size from our own site... so all the pages are the same site served out via a third party proxy smile

I've still got a very short lease time on the cookie requiring me to click login every few hours...
The issue with the cookie has taken us much longer to fix than we expected - so this is not going to be released till early next week - but we have found the issue and the code is currently in testing prior to that release.

The cookie is fine on Chromebook, but on iDevices it crumbles.

I don't have the time to read all the pages but the constant requirement to login to get the new mobile UI is driving me potty

As I am asked to reset every time I log in I thought the quickest way in wou8ld be to go straight to the password reset link previously provided in my email. This morning I had to have three goes at resetting.

IE11, Windows 7.

And yes, I click Remember Me, but it doesn't.
At home this evening I went straight into PH on my laptop - IE11 with Windows 8.1. It hadn't remembered me so I had to log in but it did at least go in first try.

Was it me using my work PC, my phone and my laptop that was confusing PH?

Anyway, a vast improvement.

I'm having to login daily on all my devices since the changes. It doesn't actually require me to enter any credentials but I do have to press Login every time I access go PH!

Is there a fix for this? Sorry haven't read the entire thread...

There's a response from PH on the post at the top of this very page - http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a... - fix is currently being tested before release.

Last three days now, click on one of my stuff topics and it takes me to that topic... a week or so back in time, not current posts. Not logged in again so either have to click Log In or click on "My Stuff" and then timing is spot on.

Chaps any idea when you're going to sort the mobile issue I highlighted in the thread earlier?

It's starting to wear very thin not being able to post replies/ask questions on the forum from my iPhone now.

I would imagine that the techie team (like the majority of us) are enjoying their extended weekend.!

Have you tried the many tips scattered through this thread?
