See how untechy I am. That would make it soooo easy. Now to figure out how to do that.
Or just change it so you remain logged in every time you visit the site 😉

I set mine when I set it up I believe there was a box to check off to stay logged on. I don't know if it shows you logged in all the time. Someone once told me I appeared to be on 24/7 so maybe it does?

I don't think so, it's just that when you type your user name, you are automatically connected with your password, and I think there is a box somewhere to click.

I just went in and I see where one can change their password. Of course you would have to know it to change it. The box for staying auto connected isn't there. I'd go to Russ on that one.

There are a lot of techy people here - they will know what to do. I can't remember what I did. If you use RHP from two different places - laptop and Ipad... well, somebody here will know.
On many password-protected sites, when you log in you are asked to check a box if you want the site to “remember me on this device” or words to that effect. This will eliminate the future need to log in on that device (eg, your cellphone). It stores your device ID code in your user info file, along with your check-box setting. But the site may lose its settings or you may inadvertently erase them.

But don’t forget, life isn’t fair. The fact that this topic has any of our attention is a sort of first-world example of this.

"Spanky" is a word I didn't know existed until I came to RHP.

I had no idea what the word meant....I don't know that it is even used properly now.
