If that's the only problem you ever have with that particular mod, you'll be lucky.

 

I think it a great contribution, and a teriffic idea, but it needs some serious overhauling.

Hi Marcel,

 

I think htat this is a fantastic idea, but it seems to have trouble going from SSL to non SSL when using a shared server.

Hi Marcel,

Hmm, I myself am running my site on a shared SSL-basis. No problems here.

 

my site is: www.hmcs.nl/shop/catalog/default.php

ssl-site is : ssl.deheeg.nl/hmcs/shop/catalog/default.php

 

Can you give me more info?

 

Marcel

You know, come to think of it, I had installed this at about the same time that I installed the "SID Killer", and I know for a fact that the SID killer was causeing soem logout problems. So I uninstalled both of them.

 

Let me reinstall thin one on my testsite, (www.cyber-codes.com) and see if it still give me problems.

 

Now that I know you are interested in perfecting the mod, I'll be sure to give you any feedback I might have.

i have sid-killer installed with it and no problems .

 

It depends which version of Ian's sid-killer you have installed. But nevermind, the next release of the 'autologon-contribution' will be based on a osc2.2-cvs version with the new spider-killer from Harald.

tecsigns, do you have a shared SSL?

 

It seems that the problems are directly related to having a shared SSL, as I indicated.

I have a shared SSL too and although this much needed Mod seemed to be working, I started getting lots of phone calls and emails from my customers telling me that they either couldn't log in or couldn't create an account the browser would time out with a page can not be diplayed message. Some of those who could not create an account were able to log in if I first created an account for them but others still could not log in even if I first created the account.

 

Having said that most of my customers could create an account and log in with no problems.

Also some customers were having problems logging in before I installed your mod but this usually involved nothng worse than having to log in twice.

 

To try and fix this problem I have changed all my pages except the creckout to NONSSL pages (I can't really see the need for login and account pages to be SSL) , this has cured the login problems but I just can't get the auto login to work at all now with NONSSL pages.

 

Is there any way I can make it so the customer stays logged in unless they click the log out button?

Best wishes

Steve

That's a shame, couldn't you even give me a clue as to where to start?

I have spent 6 years building up this buisness using a simple html shopping cart program (Jshop pro) and now since my new OSC store has gone live my customers are deserting me in droves :cry: Being regular weekly customers they don't want to have to log in each time they come to buy something.

Best wishes

Steve
