I notice that when I access the forum from a new PC (and don't log in) I am automatically allocated the username for Peter R, or Sandeha, or Astrobeck. If I then click Logout and then attempt to login as myself things do eventually seem to work, but it's a bit of a strange one. I'm not going to have much time to dedicate to this until Tuesday as I'm travelling over the UK Bank Holiday weekend. Grr!
I tried logging out and logging back in, first of all it wouldn't let me log out because the login token was mine, but it thought I was logged in as KevinAllan. Once I threw my laptop against the wall it seemed to finally log me out. Then when I tried to log back in as me, it didn't accept my password (I use a password manager, so I'm fairly certain it was the right password). I used the reset password email (luckily, the email came to me, I was afraid it would go to a random user
), and I'm able to log in, but it still shows me as KevinAllan. Well, at least for now
Thanks for looking into this, Ed. If a simple software update didn't solve it, then it may be something a fair bit more complex. I remember a similar thing happening on an ecommerce site I managed, and it turned out the problem was that I used a "=" in my php code where there should have been an "==". I can't see SMF screwing up something like that though
