i can't post or "like" posts on one particular thread - I keep getting logged out. I'd posted to the thread before yesterday but couldn't post yesterday or today. The thread is titled, I need help finding a title... It's in the General Discussion forum. Dana Jean checked to see if she was able to post and "like" posts (thanks Dana Jean !) and she was able to.

I thought maybe the thread was moved to the Newbie forum and fell into the twilight zone during transfer but other people have been able to post on the thread since I started having problems.

I have no problem posting or liking posts on other threads. What's really strange is the thread doesn't appear for me in the General Discussion forum whether I'm logged in or not. I've cleared cookies and history a couple times but it doesn't help.

I use an iPad with iOS. Since this seems to be a problem only I am having, I will totally understand if you don't want to mess with it :)

When you get logged out, it's probably because you're ending up on the unsecured site. Make http:// into https:// in your address bar.

The s follows http in the address bar before I try to like a post and also after I hit the like button and get logged out. This is what appeared in the address bar after I tried to like Dana Jeans post and got logged out.

This mystery may go unsolved but thank you for for trying to solve it :)

Note: I just clicked on the link I posted above to see if the s followed http (it did.) and got logged out without trying to post or leave a "like"
