Forum sign in issues

[swappart]

Recently, I've been having a lot of issues while trying to sign in to this forum. I've cleared cookies, and that did nothing. What happens is I click the sign in button, and the page reloads without signing me in. This happens on mobile and desktop. What I've found is this:

If I go to "community.ebay. com"  and  try to sign in, the problem exists.

If I scroll all the way down and click the Community link, the URL changes to "community.ebay. com/?nobounce=" and  then the sign in button works.

There have been approximately 43 threads about this issue over the past several weeks.   Many of them suggest workarounds.  Here's the simplest one: Many members have found that if they just proceed as if they were signed in, and then click on "Helpful" for a comment, that they will be automatically signed in.

I didn't see any of them. Even searching for it, I only see one from several months ago.

Ok, I see them now. I guess I'm one of the few who thought this belonged in Technical Issues.

This works for me: Copy the sign in URL and paste it in the address bar.
