Advertisement Posted July 8 Posted July 8 Hi stephan54, Take a look here Why does the Forum website ask so often, ( almost daily ) for Cookie Preferences?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!

I never get it in North America, but continually got it in Denmark, Norway and Sweden last month on many web sites. The message included language suggesting that privacy is at least part of the reason. Happens to me two or three times a week, but only on my phone. I think it's Joe Biden's fault. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure whether there was some software change at my end - which is, of course, very possible during the usual software updates - or else there had been a change at the source. If the former then it would have required update-changes to be implemented on both my PC and 'phone at the same time (which seems rather 'coincidental'). Philip.

Gibbo Posted July 8 Share #26 Posted July 8 (edited) Those of you affected by this, do you log out of the forum and then login the next time you use it? Never ever log out of the forum and I don’t have this issue. Edited July 8 by Gibbo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smudgerer Posted July 8 Author Share #30 Posted July 8 (edited) 4 hours ago, pippy said: No. Happens to me every single day without exception. Not every time I log-in but it is a daily occurrence. It only takes a couple of seconds to deal with the mater but rather annoying all the same. It appears regaedless whether I'm using a laptop or a 'phone. I don't have automatic cookie clearance so that isn't the issue. Don't know whether it would make any difference but, FWIW, I'm not using a private browser. Philip. and as I said, the Forum is the only website that I use that behaves this way...........Odd Edited July 8 by Smudgerer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly annoying. No, since the cookie settings are per website. I have the same happening, by the way. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
