Login Bugs - Don't request password

Community Website and Forum
1

Hello everyone,

I'm facing a problem regarding login.

Details

When someone logins on Arduino's Forum on my computer and than logout, i can't log in with my account unless I clean all data from my browser, even shift F5 doesn't solve it.

What happens when I click on the login button on the top right is that it automaticaly logs back to the other person account and doesn't request password and anything. Also, like I said before, logging out doesn't solve it given that when I try to enter it goes back to the same account.

Browser

Microsoft Edge
Version 89.0.774.77 (64 bits)

I'm using a relatively older version of firefox 78.9.0esr. I logged out, refreshed with F5. Logged in, still was required to enter credentials.

I just tried with edge on private mode too, and same thing happened.

Also tested with Firefox 87.0 (64-bits) and same problem.

There are two interrelated websites, each with their own login:

  • arduino.cc
  • forum.arduino.cc

If you're logged in on arduino.cc, then you only need to click the "Log in" button on the forum.arduino.cc website and it will automatically log you in to the account that is logged in on arduino.cc.

So if you want to fully log out, you must do this:

  1. Open https://arduino.cc/
  2. Click your avatar at the top right corner of the website.
  3. From the menu, click SIGN OUT

Thank you @pert (Arduino Team).

To really log out I had to go to the Arduno's website and logout from the forum and from the arduino.cc, both. It did work.

Thanks ;p

There used to be an SSO. (Single Sign On)
It became broken when new authentication features were added to the old SMF forum.

SSO was used to enable you to sign in to any section of the website and be authenticated in the rest of the website without having to log on again.
I was given the impression that a new forum would fix the broken SSO
Am still looking forward to this feature being restored to help users navigate the whole site so that multiple LOGIN is no longer required.

This is true. To logout from the forum, I've to login the arduino.cc, logout from there and then logout from the forum.arduino.cc.
