Topic: Have to login twice to post

Hello,

I was hoping someone might be able to help me out.  Since my upgrade to 1.2.16, it seems you have to login twice just to post a message on my forum.  Prior to 1.2.16, this was never an issue.  Could anyone point me in the right direction to a cause/fix?

Here's a link to the forum: http://cpadventures.com/forum

Thanks for any help!

Kevin

Update: You have to logout twice too

Re: Have to login twice to post

I think you have inconsistent redirects between http://www.cpadventures.com/forum and http://cpadventures.com/forum. I seem to be bounced back and forth between the two.
To fix the problem, you should only be able to access the site from one of the URLs (thanks to redirects).

Re: Have to login twice to post

I can do that with a .htaccess redirect right?

I checked in my forum admin section and it lists the url as http://cpadventures.com/forum (without the www).

Yes, but you'll notice that going to http://cpadventures.com/forum does a 301 redirect to http://www.cpadventures.com/forum

Re: Have to login twice to post

Thanks.  I'm not sure why it's doing that.  I've been trying to get some help on some other sites with redirecting all www requests to no www via .htaccess (for the forum) but so far haven't found much help.  I'm a complete .htaccess newbie.

kfordham281: http://www.ilovejackdaniels.com/cheat-s … eat-sheet/
It has example rules for redirecting from one domain to the other, it's the exact same idea (except with one domain being www.example.com and the other being example.com)
