I have been unable to log in, user name and password are stored. I click login then enter and nothing happens. Anyone else having an issue? Not sure if this is related to the logout issue just noted.

Just noticed that when I go to make a post, such as this I am logged in, but if I go to any other page I am logged out and cannot login.

Working on it. It's a cookie issue. May require me to fix it and have all users re-login. :( Hopefully not, but we'll see. I WILL get it resolved, just be patient with me. :)

I've upload a potential fix for this, as well as added a tool to the login page to "reset" your NWFR cookies which might set things straight for you.

None of that seemed to work on Chrome, even took Mikes advice and cleared all cookies through settings, but Edge is working fine so I will just use this for the time being. Thanks for all the great work on the site!

Looks like firefox on the computer is ok, but I cannot log in on my samsung V30, tried everything I could think of short of a factory reset

I have a v30 as well, and had some issues in Chrome.

Had to do this:

Open Chrome
browe to www.northwestfishingreports.com
click settings icon top right
settings
privacy
clear browsing data
check Cookies and site data box only
click clear data button
close everything

i was good to go then

Still having an issue with Chrome after going through all outlined steps above twice. Closed everything out but did not restart the computer, did that yesterday. Working fine on Edge still and on my droid Motorola though.

My log-in is working now. Aaron spent a couple hours on it this evening and got it working, hope all will be fixed soon. Thanks Aaron for all the hard work you do for this site.

No Tom, thank YOU! I'm hopeful to have the site updated later tonight/tomorrow so it works for all.

Still doesnt seem to work properly, randomly.

On Edge, Chrome and Firefox.

I was logged in earlier today. Came back and was logged out. Tried to log back in, but it takes me back to the home page after logging in, only to be logged out still.

Deleted cookies in FF. Same thing. Came back 5 mins later and it was fine, lol.

Bane of my existence.

Don't bother trying to figure it out until I post here that I'm done. SOMETHING changed from totally working, to totally not working. Not sure what. I'm not going to bed tonight until it works again.

Past 2 or 3 days, it seems to be fine. But about a little over a week ago, I wasnt able to log in again.


Also, Firefox says connection isnt secure when on the login screen, if that means anything.

The major browser manufacturers decided late last year to label any website that isn't using SLL (HTTPS) as not secure. We're not safeguarding any secrets here.. so it hasn't been a major concern for us, but we'll likely be moving to all HTTPS in the near future just to be safe, and to reduce concerns about that message.
