Bug #3152
closedCookie/Session weirdness
0%
Description
I'm having some problems with sessions on the Commons. Here's what's happening:
1. I get an email asking me to approve a trackback on a blog post I wrote.
2. I click on the approve link in the email
3. Get to the blog homepage in Chrome, see I need to log in to get to the dashboard
4. go to the commons homepage and log in
5. I see that I am in a logged-in state
6. go back to the email, click on the approve comment link
7. get taken back to the blog page (same browser window on which I was previously logged in), but it shows me as being in a logged-out state
8. Hard refresh, no effect
9. Repeat steps 1-8
10. Close/Reopen browser, try again with no success
One note: one time, after logging in to the homepage, I went to blogname/wp-admin instead of clicking on the "approve comment" link, and I was able to get to the dashboard. But when I tried to click on the link, that didn't work.
Blog: cunydhi.commons.gc.cuny.edu
approve link in email: https://cunydhi.commons.gc.cuny.edu/wp-admin/comment.php?action=approve&c=4071

I can't reproduce this in any OS/browser combo I've tested. Are you still experiencing it?
Can you try clearing your commons.gc.cuny.edu (and *.commons.gc.cuny.edu) browser cookies and try again? Please also try using a browser other than Chrome.

Hi Boone,
I cleared cookies in Chrome and FF and retried this. I could not get the following link - https://cunydhi.commons.gc.cuny.edu/wp-admin/comment.php?action=approve&c=4071 - to load on either browser -- entering it in the URL field produced only a hanging page that never loaded.
For now, I will close this issue and reopen if I experience it again with new comments.

Also - thanks for trying to reproduce the problem.
