Website login != Forum login

Post by torbengb
There's a login link at the top of every page, but even when I'm logged in there I am often not logged into the forum. There must be some kind of time-out on the forum session, but there is no separate forum login link.

Not being logged into the forum means it doesn't indicate which subforums have new responses. To see that, I often have to click "reply" on any random topic (just to get a login prompt!) and then not post any reply after all.

Can I ask for a forum login link to be shown? Or even better, make the site login also valid for the forum - that would be elegant. Thank you!

True, that's also a bother. Not even my automatic login managers can detect+fill+submit the Waze login form :cry:

Robin1979's link was useful -- this works:
http://world.waze.com/forum/ucp.php?mode=login

The forum session still times out even though the site session remains, but at least with this link I'll be able to renew the forum session without having to fake a reply post.

PS: I've found that "Log me on automatically each visit" only actually works on the www forum, not the world forum. So, I always visit www.waze.com/forum and not the world one.
