Sign in required constantly and first unread posts not found

[Portti]

I have to sign in to the forum almost every time I try to access it ie. the forum software doesn't remember that I've already signed in and asks me to sign in every time I access the forum. It's the same behavior on Windows 10 and 11 PCs and Android devices. It's been the same behavior since I joined this forum approx. two years ago. Is this a feature of the forum software or should the forum remember your signing in so that you don't have to do it all over again?

Second technical issue which I have is that the the functionality to enable jumping to the first unread post on each topic doesn't work. The way it behaves is that when I click on a topic with bold heading (= it has new posts), it sometimes takes me to the first post of the topic (on a topic which I've previously visited), sometimes it takes me to the beginning of the page where the first unread post is and sometimes (very rarely) it takes me where I want to go ie. the actual first unread post.

Also, if I read messages on another device, the forum doesn't remember which post have been the last unread posts on another device.

All of these are basic functionalities on other popular forum software but they don't seem to work at all on this forum. Can forum administrators/owners do something to fix these basic issues?

Is there such thing in here as active moderators/admins who reply to this kind of website feedback?

Does anybody else have similar issues with forum functionality as described above?

Both are problems that have been well known for a long time, and discussed at length previously.
