I feel like if I'm in the forum and click "Store" or "Arduino.CC" up at the top I should stay signed in when I get redirected.
I also feel like I shouldn't have to accept cookies every time I open the website. Maybe add some sort of check box in your profile settings that auto-accepts them. Off by default.
When I click STORE I am redirected and do not need to log in, nor am I required to accept cookies when opening the website
Windows 10
Chrome browser
What OS, browser and plugins, Security Program, bla bla are you using?
It's sounds like you got a hitch in your giddup, partner.
I'm just on a school issued Chromebook. I can upload a link to a screen recording.
EDIT - Looks like all I have to do is click the button that says "Sign In" in the top right corner to sign in after being redirected. But still, I feel like I should be able to stay signed in.
It's a security issue then, School's not the forum's.
Take your computer to the IT department and show them the issue. They can probably adjust the security settings for you and maybe adjust their group policies to help all the students in your school.
Interesting.
They use iBoss, which is a program I have attempted to stall, crash, or block many times due to the minor annoyances it causes.
I'll go chew them out during 5th period.
If it weren't a school computer I would offer more advise, but I will suggest that your request will carry better if you speak across to them instead of down at them.
Hope you get it fixed.
I'll try, but this plugin has been getting on my nerves for years.
It blocks websites under the excuse "private website" or "parked domain".
If it was a private website or parked domain then why is it on my search results? Clearly the owner doesn't care about privacy if it's not unlisted, and if it were a parked domain it wouldn't show up either because there isn't a website attached to it.
I think you might find that those are sites that have bad credentials and are auto-filtered because of it. I went to school pre-internet so I never had those restrictions (yes, there was a time like that where we used paper maps like pirates.) but I would also suggest that the people to which you will be speaking are stuck in the same box as you as they are required to use the software too and to rigidly follow the rules. As such, they are likely not to blame for the software or its application. If you consider their feelings they will likely consider yours.
I believe your school board or administration is responsible for the software choice and if, after exhausting your work with the IT department, you decide to approach them about it that a level headed proposal written in a scholarly manner will carry more weight than any verbal argument that you can pose.
I can write. And not badly either. Maybe I'll write an essay about software restrictions or something and send it off to the school board, who will promptly ignore it and throw it away.
Worth a shot.
