I upgraded my site to 7.96 and kept the CAPTCHA setting enabled. I have noticed that users are now having to login to the site repeatedly even though they are not clearing their cookies. I too, also have this issue. With 7.95 and previous versions, once I logged into the site it remembered me until I deleted the cookie or logged out. Now I can log in surf around and close my browser. Once I come back, I have to log back in. Is this related to the addition of the CAPTCHA images in the login and registration page? If so, if i disable CAPTCHA, will I have the same issue with returning to the site. Also, My users have also noticed they can no longer store their username and passwords in their browser for quicker access. I tested this and confirmed that the option is no longer available. I assume this is also CAPTCHA related.
Thanks in advance.
