    OTP won't remember me

    Recently had some computer issues and decided I was due for a format/reinstall of windows. Since then for whatever reason OTP won't remember me and I have to log in every time I get on the site. I'm also getting this message at log in.

    Invalid Redirect URL (http://www.theoutdoortradingpost.com/)

    I'm running Mozilla Firefox 34.0.5 for this forum as I do for MarlinOwners and PF of which both forums remember me. Wondering if there's a settings issue I've overlooked or if this is an issue with the newest version of Firefox? Any thoughts on this one?

    I get the same message at log in. Ive have to log in twice. At first I thought I was fat fingering my user name but I consistently get the invalid message on first login attempt.

    You are probably already doing this but click the remember me check box under you username and password before you select log in. Also, if you clear you computer after you log off, it will drop the remember me the next time you log in and you'll have to do it again.

    This time I hit the remember button and was able to get in first attempt.
    Typically that button is to keep me logged in until I log out on other forums. Otherwise without hitting the remember button the forum will log you out if you are not active for what ever the inactive time is set for. But it worked here so I'm good to go.

    I check the remember me box every time and haven't been clearing anything unless Firefox is doing that by default. This is a newer version of Firefox then I'm used to so still getting used to it's nuances. Just curious if there was a known flaw with this particular version or if I need to tweak a setting to fix the issue. Can't stand having to enter usernames and passwords on all my forums, it's a real pain in the rear.

    I don't know anything about Firefox. I use Safari and it has it's own issues too. I can't see any setting that needs changing. I'll keep looking.

    Done all of the above and still won't remember me when I come back. Dashlane seems to make it easier though so it's not a huge deal. Still getting the invalid redirect URL message when dashlane logs me in though. Maybe I'll try using i.e. here, it used to give me issues on this site (marlinowners and PF too) and see if that helps.
