Can't seem to log on. - Superjustinbros - 10-08-2015
Dunno if this is the place to put it, but ever since sometime last night, every time I try to log into one of the Resources, it instantly logs me out and treats me as a guest. I tried cleaning the site's cookies several times to no avail, and still it will not keep me logged in.
Strangely, even though I can't log into any of the resources, I can still log into the forums.

Which browser are you using? I got an email from someone else who couldn't log in recently and while it's working on my end, something else may be going on. If you're logged into the forum, clicking on login on any of the sites should automatically log you in (sometimes the auto login doesn't work instantly across all sites for some reason).

I'm on Safari.
RE: Can't seem to log on. - Petie - 10-08-2015
Just tested and confirmed to be working on Safari. Do you have JavaScript disabled or AdBlock enabled?
Edit:
Also, Safari seems to have the biggest problem with the auto-login. For instance, I just logged in via the link on tSR and it is fine there and on the forum but the other sites still show as logged out. Clicking the Login link on tMR instantly logged me into the site though. The same applies to the other two sites.

I've always been able to log in even with an Adblock enabled.
I also hava JavaScript enabled.
RE: Can't seem to log on. - Petie - 10-08-2015
I've seen AdBlock cause issues here before so I'd suggest trying to log in with it disabled. Otherwise, I'm really not sure what's going on. It's worked on every browser I tested it with just now (Safari on Mac, Chrome and IE on PC). Safari is the only one that requires individual clicks to log into each site (but only one entering of your password) but otherwise, it seems to be fine. Try from a different browser, maybe, just to see if it's browser-specific? Or try in private browsing to eliminate cookie conflicts (remember that, if you're clearing them manually, you need to clear cookies for all five *-resource.com domains)?
RE: Can't seem to log on. - Superjustinbros - 10-08-2015
Good news, I figured out why I couldn't log on, I had cookies set to "All form current website only" instead of "websites I visit".
RE: Can't seem to log on. - Petie - 10-08-2015
That would do it. The way the SSO works is that a single page sets the cookies for the other four sites at once. Otherwise, it would require 5 redirects to log in.
