This would be a cookie issue and is usually a local (user-end) issue.

Make sure you log in with the Remember Me option checked.

If it's still not working, you'll need to singly delete the CorvetteForum cookies (not just log out) and then revisit the site, use the Remember Me option, and then it should be fixed. If not, then you either have a security setting that is deleting or preventing the cookie from working, or perhaps you're cleaning the cookie when you close your browser.

for the last 10 minutes I havent had to log in but now when I go to a different forum the logo at the top of the page keeps going to the C6 and right under the Private message box it keeps going to c 6 and then I click on C5 and I have to do it 2 times to get the c5 logo at the top again...my security settings and cookies havent changed and I am not clearing any cookies when I close...

That's because C6 is the default theme used if there is no cookie present to override.

Thus, again, you need to manually remove the CF cookies and revisit the site.

I'm not experiencing such an issue. By large, these issues are cookie issues in the browser. Having a corrupt cookie from time to time is not uncommon.

ok so its the first time I have had " cookie issues" in 10 years...
anyway, I couldn't just delete Corvetteforum cookies so I deleted all cookies and FKD up all of my websites that needed names and passwords...luckily I have them on hard copy and will enter them as I visit my sites...
Now when I click onto the forum it runs really depressingly slow...wtf?

Might get a new computer anyway...
