    My Firefox program does not seem to work with Pinside well. I can browse topics and sign in and even go to my activities/profile etc, but when I go to post in the forum Pinside asks me to sign in even when I'm already signed in. I can sign out and sign back in and no help.

    Is this a bug or is there a setting in my Firefox which I need to change?

    Thanks!

    I'm using Firefox and am having no issues and have made no adjustments. Are you up to date on your Firefox?

    To me Google Chrome > Firefox > Internet Explorer

    I use Firefox on a daily basis (as well as Chrome) to test and browse the site and haven't seen the issue you are describing myself. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist, but could your problem be related to a Firefox addon that you have installed? Also do you have cookies enabled? We use cookies for session persistence (remembering your login). Which version of Firefox are you on, is it up to date?

    Clear cookies and cache, close browser down completely after that. Try that.

    I have problems with Internet Explorer (Cant place myself on the map..so cant list games for sale)..With FIREFOX I have the same problem as you..cant post to threads. I have to use CHROME to place myself on the map. Had to upgrade my Explorer to be able to post photos. This is the only site I have experienced all these problems. Was driving me nuts for awhile.

    Firefox works for me on Pinside at work and on IE at home.

    At work I go thru (at least) 2 firewalls to get to the internet, so occasionally on Pinside I have issues, usually with the search function or the quote function. But I attribute that to the multiple firewalls.

    I'd have to look it up.

    I was using IE with no issues but my IE no longer works since upgrading to Windows 8.1 (apparently others have had that same issue according to a few forums I've seen). My IE works in the Windows mod based mode but not when opened from the desktop which is how I use everything.

    I haven't really cared one way or the other which browser I've used so I simply started using Chrome more and no issues.
