For some reason, every user I create must apply their username/password twice before they can get in. (When you type the username and password, then hit enter, the same login.php page appears a second time. You put the same username and password in again, and you are admitted into the system.)

Any idea why this would be happening?

Hi silvermoondesigns,

some time ago I discovered the same problem. Unfortunately I was not
able to solve it until now (using 1.2.5-dev) Have a look at these threads,
maybe it will help YOU.

I was just lucky to find a workaround for my problem:
Generally I was calling "http://www.domain.de/login.php" to load the
Login-Page. But I realized that the url changed, when my first logon-
attempt failed, to "http://domain.de/login.php. The second try was
always successful. So I tried to call the second url directly and look
it works!

I have no idea what causes the first url to refuse my request and why
the url without www works perfect!

Does someone have any explanation for that?
Or is there any error within the login script?
(I'm not that familiar with php ...)

Regards, Thilo

Thank you. I removed the "www" from my login link and it works perfectly now.
