Having trouble logging in? Try clearing browser cookies.

Earlier today I changed a setting that affects the cookie domain for the site. (Then I spent a few hours trying to figure out what I had done and undo it, all while being unable to log in. *cough*)

If you are still having trouble logging in, try clearing your browser cookies. You probably only need to clear the cookies you've gotten for the past few hours.

I was so worried that I was banned for some reason or another when I stumbled upon this post. xD
What a relief!

Well, I couldn't log in, so cleared cookies. Still can't log in on Explorer but can on Firefox

Thank you for posting this Mania- I recently had my username changed so I thought perhaps I had a glitch between it trying to grab my old username and password. bah. Glad to be back!

Mania, you know Saturo and I always have cookies for you too! Just in case you need some help... all you need to do is come to the darkside...

Tossing out the forums.wow-petopia.com cookie did the trick for me; for that matter. It's worth noting that deleting the wow-petopia.com cookie alone will not do anything, because that's not for the Petopia forums.

Thanks for the heads-up! Oddly enough, I viewed this yesterday, but it wasn't until this morning that I had issues

EDIT: Come to think of it, I tossed out any and all cookie that made reference to forums.wow-petopia, which may or may not have been necessary.

*returns to munching on cookies*

zomg so glad i found this....bursting with posts!

[zedxrgal]

Yay for seeing this. BBOOooo for so far not being able to log in at home or on my iPhone.

[Makoes]

Finally I got in!! Had to, on Internet explorer, uncheck the "Preseve favourite website box" after deleting cookies before I could sign in. Sever withdraw being without Petopia since lastnight

[Mychelle]

This helped alot, thank you!

THANK YOU-- I tried clearing all cookies from the last 4 hours, from the last 6 hours, the whole of today, and still nothing-- going in and manually killing the forums.wow-petopia.com cookie FINALLY worked!

Thank you thank you thank you...

Egads. Waking up to find you can't log in is a scary thing. I thought I did something wrong, or was banned, or someone was just being evil to me. :p

I was about ready to make a new name and go, "Oi. The thingy is broken. Help!" when I saw this. xD

[Kalliope]

Indeed, was slightly worried.

Also, Mychelle, fancy seeing you here haha. I JUST tamed Olm. Don't know if you got him yesterday or not, but if you know his spawn timer (i don't), you now have a time to work off of, 3pm server time.

Best of luck.

Small world!!! Thanks to you two posting here, I recognized Mychelle (and Olm!) immediately upon queuing into a group for the V-Day boss with them! xD

[Mania]

I'm really sorry about this, everyone. I hate having to make you do things to fix my mistakes.

[SpiritBinder]

Yay! I can log back in !

Thanks M for your help, deleting the cookies worked a treat (who would have thought that cookies could ever be bad for you )

[Yaone]

Whew... I thought I broke my computer with the new windows updates ><

Glad ya posted, I was actually trying to get your email to shoot ya a line xD

[cowmuflage]

Ugh this took me ages to do I don't know if it was my computer noobness or my painkiller drugged mind.

[Sei]

Wow, glad I wasn't the only one having that problem. And I accidentally figured it out while trying to fix a different issue I was having.

Ahha! That's what I didn't do. Works now:)

I can finally log in at home but still can't on my piece of shit iPhone even though I've deleted the internet cache, cookies etc etc etc. So my next 'try' is to delete the favorite bookmark on the blasted phone to see if that works.
