Post Bug on Apple MacBook only??!!
From about 6pm New Zealand time on Sat June 16, it has been impossible for me to log on to calcudoku.org from my MacBook computer, yet there is no problem doing so from my old Windows PC. Each time I enter my user name and password on the MacBook, it appears to accept them as being valid but always takes me back to the pre-login calcudoku screen. I have tried emptying my Safari cache, but to no avail.

Stranger still is the fact that when I came to this blog area I was shown as being logged in with my user name showing! [confused]

Please help.

[You haven't been messing around with the code again have you Patrick?] [lol]

Yes, was messing with the code again :-)

The solution is to clear your "cookies" (let me know
if you need help with that). From then on all should
work ok.
(so if you're using Safari, for example, search Google
for "safari mac how to clear cookies" or something
like that)

I should put a message to that effect on the login page.

sorry about the hassle,

Patrick

Hello,
I have had the exact same problem but I am not on Apple. At first the problem (not being able to log in) only happened in chrome, so I logged in on IE to get to the forum and I saw this thread. I then deleted cookies on chrome and it worked for most puzzles until I completed the 8x8 difficult and it said I wasn't logged in and wouldn't let me log in again. Now I cannot log in on both chrome and IE (after clearing both cookies) [sad]
Thank you

Sorry for the hassle! I've been fiddling around again and re-deleted cookies (after they all re-appeared [unsure] ) and I am fine again!

Hm, that's odd, the problem should appear only once,
and then go away "forever" [confused]
