I still have to log in each time I enter the site if I want the counters displayed....oh well, I'm finally begining to memorize that tricky password.
And rumor has it that there is some page called "core" or something like that. What is that page all about?
Can I come over today and look at your computer?
You are subscribed to that page. But that doesn't mean it gets automatically put onto your front page. You decide what pages are on your front page. For every page you are subscribed to you can view your subscription information by going to xxx/subscription, so for instance, if you go to www.digitalmediatree.com/treehouse/subscription (or just go to treehouse and click on [subscriptions] at the bottom of the page) you will see (and can edit your info.) This is where you can change the new post and new comment tracking, and also where you can put things onto your home page or take them off (or rearrange the order.) I've put /core onto your main page for you.
As for the signing in, I almost can't believe it, but much stranger things have happened (Rachael had a log in bug recently that was easy to fix, but I still have absolutely no idea how what was happening was happening.) Probably if I come look at it I will be able to see what is happening. Do you use cookies for anything else? Do they work in other cases? Here are the only reasons I can think of why they wouldn't be working:
1) you log out from the site
2) you throw away your magic_cookie file (in netscape preferences, in preferences, in your system folder) in between visits.
Those seem unlikely.
3) you log in to the site (which puts the cookie into memory), but then never quit the browser properly (maybe your system crashes, or something else goes wrong and you have to force quit navigator.) Background: When you first start Navigator it goes into that preference file and reads all your cookie info into memory. Any new cookies you pick up while surfing are added to this list in memory. When you quit Navigator the cookie info is written back out to file replacing the old file. So it is possible for cookies to work for one session (from memory,) but then never be saved back to the permanent cookie record on disk.
4) your date is set very far into the future (cookies are time sensitive, and they do expire at a certain point in the future - so if your computer thinks it is already far into the future maybe it is expiring them.)
