'Remember me.'

[Amy]

Does anyone know what that tick box saying 'remember me?' means?

I don't know what it's for and I would like to find out.

Does anyone know?

If you have cookies enabled on your computer/browser, by checking this box the forums will remember your username and password, meaning you don't have to log in every time you visit the forums. So if you check this box, don't click the log out link, and you stop coming to the forums for a few days, when you come back it should still remember you (not that I'm encouraging you to leave the forums, just an example). Hope this helps. :)

Can't you just log in as usual?

Do you mean you don't have to put your password or username in?

[Dave]

Yes. Every time you visit the site you'll already be logged in.

[Amy]

WOW! :eek: Cool!

[Dave]

So does this answer your question you asked a while ago as to why people don't log out?

[Amy]

Yes it does! Thank you everyone!

[Mistyoriline]

It never remembers me and I always check the box.

[Amy]

Oh... Do you log out though? If you do, don't and it will remember you.

[Dave]

Also, make sure your computer/browser is set to accept cookies otherwise it won't work.

[Amy]

Oh yes I forgot to say that!
