I don't post often, but you damn well better believe I hit refresh or check back 10 times a day when the ChemBase is not available.

Thanks again to the dedicated admin team for keeping things going!

Lately when I log in, I have to refresh my page to have the forum recognize my credentials. It's done this in both Chrome and Firefox from two different endpoints.

It's not big deal at all and may only be a local issue for me, but I'm reporting in case there was a change. This has been the case for me for about 2 weeks after cache clears and logouts. I have no issue if I stay logged in, but it happens if I log out or clear cache.TY

I had been having this issue for months before I discovered a "fix" in my case a couple of days ago. I use Firefox:

- type in 'about:config'; in your address bar
- type in 'browser.cache.check_doc_frequency' in the search bar
- change value from 3 to 1.

I read that this changes how often FF refreshes the site's cache.
- 0: with each opening of FF
- 1: with each site access
- 2: never refreshing cache
-3: automatic

It could cause your browser to take a while longer to load sites but from my experience this is rather negligible.

My guess is Mozilla messed around with that algorithm in their last updates and it's not really refreshing at all when set to 3. This drove me nuts for a while because everytime I forgot to refresh a page, especially here on the forum, I occasionally would miss words in my edited posts because they weren't saved yet.

Success, thank you! I appreciate the quick answer to my extremely vexing inconvenience. LOL

I'm only telling you this because you deserve the laugh. I copied 'about:config'; into the address bar and got search results. It took 0.5 seconds to realize I'm a dumbass and copied the punctuation marks. Whoopsie!

I thought it also happened on Chrome on my VDI work computer, but now it makes sense that I was mistaken and more likely toggling back and forth through Citrix. I don't have Firefox on that image.
