Hi
I am a member of the Forum, even of the Society, and when I log in at the top of the page, it shows that I'm logged in, but often when I post something, I'm shown as a Guest. (It will be interesting to see what happens this time.)
It seems that whenever I touch a Preview or Submit button I get kicked right out again. So I keep logging in, but I keep being called a Guest.
Boo hoo. Can anyone open the door and let me in?

Hi Matt and George
Thanks for the assistance. Now this is dangerous - when I start digging around in these kinds of settings!
Anyway I followed your very clear instructions, and this is what happened:
George: I got there and found my setting is already on Medium. So that should be OK.
Matt: I followed your instructions too, but when I typed in the site address, I was told it would only accept addresses with the https:// prefix.
The strange thing, though, is that in the past I have posted messages and they've shown that they are from me. It's only recently that this Guest thing has started, though I've done nothing that should've caused it. Oh, well, maybe if we ignore it it'll go away and things will return to normal again.
Many thanks,
Errol

I have posted a pertinent topic under "Child Whispers", where this topic started. I include it below:

Yes, I much prefer using Mozilla Firefox as my browser, instead of Internet Explorer. However, I can't even log-in most of the time; on the odd occasion when I can, in spite of ticking the "keep logged in" box, next visit, I'm logged out again. Therefore, I have to use IE as my browser when accessing this site.
