Update on having to sign in each time, despite checking "remember me" box:

I set my browser to allow cookies from a.dpchallenge.com (permanantly, not just for the session)
I signed in with the "remember me" box checked
I closed the browser
I reopened the browser and went to the site again. In the upper right it momentarily flashed "sign out" which would imply I was still logged in, but almost immediately reverted to "sign in".

Further information: When I look at my browser's "manage cookies and site data" it shows 4.2 MB storage but zero cookies saved for a.dpchallenge.com. Does the link get redirected to a different site that I need to also add to my "allow cookies" list, which allows cookies to be stored between sessions?)

Firefox v 84.0 on Windows 10 Home.

Observation: If you are not logged in and you try to upload an image you get a non-specific message along the lines of "Error, image not uploaded, (or unable to upload)", rather than something that tells you that you cannot upload because you are not logged in which would be helpful.

This one too

p.s. happy new year

Okay, still can not add my camera under profile preferences or when editing the phot in a contest to add camera. iso, ap, shutter speed work well

Have not been kicked out and had to resign in yet

what happens when you try to add a camera in the profile-preferences page?
what happens when you try to specify a camera in the "edit image data" page?

mitalapo Happy New Year to you and yours as well x

I just went to the new site to see what the challenge was there. Just to reiterate what I wrote below, It is REALLY strange to see the submission date for tonight's challenge listed as January 6th.

PS. To confirm the recent change you made, I was automatically logged in this time.

Happy New Year Mita!

Discrepancy Noticed The new site differs from the current one in how the deadline for a challenge submission is portrayed.

In the existing site this "Sunday night's challenge" is shown as:

Submission Deadline: Sunday, December 20th, 2020 (began Dec. 7th 2020)
Voting Dates: Dec. 21st 2020 - Dec. 27th 2020

On DPCv3 Beta the Sunday night challenge is shown as:

Submission Deadline: December 21, 2020 (began December 7, 2020)
Voting Dates: December 21, 2020 - December 28, 2020

I much prefer the way it is portrayed on the existing site and see a potential for confusion the other way.

can you do a shift+reload and try again? If it still happens - what browser and version are you using?

As far as I know, I'm still on the old site. I haven't deliberately changed anything. But I was just voting a challenge. I use a PC and had the images open full on my monitor; using my keyboard. I was a little over halfway through when suddenly there was a hiccough and I was looking at an unfamiliar image. I hit the browser back button (Firefox Mozilla) so I could "find my place" but the image I saw was also unfamiliar. Back again. Unfamiliar. Etc. Finally I closed and came in again. Started with the ones it showed I hadn't voted on and finished. Then I looked at the overall view of the contest to see where I wanted to bump. Much to my surprise, I had voted on at 8-12 images that I hadn't intentionally voted on AND they all had the same score - the same as the score I had intentionally given the image at the "hiccough" point.

I have NOT been following this thread and do not know what could have caused this or if it's even remotely possible for the update to have caused it. But I thought I'd report it anyway as I'm pretty careful when I vote and try to always look at the overall picture once I'm done to give my bumps and I've never had this happen before.

Which challenge were you voting on? There are a completely different set of challenges at the Beta site, so if you were voting on the Free Study, for example, you were almost certainly still on the old site.

Cool! An image I'd posted for the 'free study 2020-12' challenge just disappeared. :-)

It was the "4th place" image ... I was looking at it, noticed where I could select 'remove image' ... tried it, and voila - it's been removed. ???!

This sounds like a bad thing.

This could be a good thing ... maybe relabel it "acknowledged" or "noted" ...

I see you as 2nd when I just opened it.

ETA - That was before logging in. After logging in it's back to you as 3rd.

Bottom line. Don't delete an image from the challenge like I did? :-)

Agreed. It is a bug. See #74 in the bugs list at the top of this thread.
