I'm getting a non-persistent cookie from ubbdev.com, and I do have to login each time I visit.

With V6, will users have to login each time they visit?

I get a persistent cookie from ubbdev.com, and don't have to re-login.

V6 has the sessions/cookies configuration option, just like (I assume) V5.

Edit: They might have reset all the passwords here after the server was hacked a couple of days ago. I had to change my password when the server was restored.

Yes, passwords must have been reset, because I had to get a temp today.

I'll admit my lack of attention on the login this time around... I wasn't checking the remember me box.

But in the past, I have, and it didn't remember. I'll see this time around.

Out of curiosity... is there a feature to reset all passwords in the Admin section?

I don't have V6 installed anywhere, so I don't know.

I guess you could issue an instruction in the SQL command to set all passwords to 'a new one' - and then no one would know what it is, and so therefore would have to request a new one.

I think!

Not that I've seen.

But as suggested below, you could just use a query to reset all the passwords.
I'd think it would cause confusion though, unless you posted an announcement explaining that you did that, and that users need to use the "forgot password" section on the login page to get a new temporary password.
