I’m on iPhone at the moment, Neil, and it all looks OK. Same on iPad, haven’t fired up the W10 laptop yet.

I am on a MacBook Pro and it is the same for me. The Cookies banner at the bottom stays there after clicking it repeatedly, and it does not show I have logged in. When I click on the Board Index box at the top, it shows me logged in and the cookies banner finally disappears.

Yes I clear my cookies frequently.

On my website the IT team always advises me that after an update that it can take up to 24 hours for the bots to 'settle in' (non technical explanation).

Cookie acceptance no longer prompted - noticed that I now stay 'Logged in' - which is what it always was before this update

Why the obsession with 'clearing Cookies' - that may have benefit at times, but means you lose stored Passwords ...

Clearing cookies??

Think online banking.

In my iPad I can’t get to the cookie acceptance page so can never login to the forum on there. Annoying.

I occasionally have the same on my phone (iOS 15) and if I press on Board Index after the cookie message I can then log in successfully as normal.
