Lol Janey I have that as well when my bird runs all over the keyboard as I'm typing.
Ann I took GR off my favourites, logged in again and saved it to my favourites still logged in. I opened it this morning and it came straight on still logged in as I always kept it.

I only have to worry about the cats, here. ;-)

If you see a post some morning that looks like

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzgzzzzzzzzzzzzrzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzuzz
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzttttttzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I'm sure you'll recognize it as a large kitten who's been sleeping on the keyboard and occasionally scratching ...

GR developer Phil has asked for people to provide details of the problem they are experiencing.

See the thread on the Suggestions board (it can help to check that board occasionally since that is where problems are being reported and staff are responding):

His post is on page 3, in which he asks:

"If you are still getting the problem above, could you reply in this thread with the following information: ..."

I couldn't even get on to the site yesterday or early this morning, it was so annoying and now it's laid out in a different format. I really am not happy.
I kept getting a message saying the site was undergoing maintenance and now I find everything different again!

Thanks AnninGlos.

I've just deleted my shortcut off my desktop and made a new one and that seems to have done the trick. Funny though I have a shortcut to GR ZA site and that seems to be ok as well.

I had to do it for the past two days but yesterday I deleted GR from my favourites and then added again and this morning it seems OK. They did a lot of maintenance at the end of last week so may have changed something. try unticking and re-adding your details.

Thanks everyone

I thought I was doing something wrong. I will get in touch with GR and hopefully get the problem sorted.

All the best

It has happened to me just twice in the past two weeks, otherwise ok.

If you are using a desktop icon or favourite to enter the site it could be that its url is no longer valid, as GR have changed the names of several web pages, especially the boards.

Apparently GR have acknowledged the problem and I gather have asked members to email them details of any urls which demand you to log back in, so they can investigate further.

There are several threads on the same subject dotted around the message board.
