Today I tried to comment on a post and it said I needed to log in to comment. Well, I was logged in but went ahead and put in my screen name and key that they gave me (for a burner account) it said that the login was successful but then when I went back to try to comment I got the same "log in to comment" message. I tried numerous times and got the same result... any suggestions?

Edit: FIXED AT LAST!

Edit your post and add "Kinja Help" as a tag. IT will see it. That doesn't help with your current problem, but it might get added to their punch list. I can't see my private view or my personal blog.

Interestingly enough, I downloaded google chrome for iPhone and it works on here. Maybe it's a screw up with the built in Safari browser, who knows.

I'm using my iPhone right now. You might want to clear cookies and data and try again.

Hi PTS- it's likely a local cache issue. Try clearing Safari's cookies/cache and restarting the browser. That should get you logged in.

I tried that a couple times and it didn't work, even after turning my phone on and back off. It says that the login is successful and then reloads the page that says that I need to log in, and then that automatically bounces me back to the login window.

We released some improvements this morning that should smooth out a lot of these login issues that lingered yesterday. Have you noticed any improvement?

Yes, I managed to get it to work on the built in Safari app by clicking the option to create a new burner account which redirected me to a different page where I then logged in as I would have before, and that fixed the problem.

If you haven't gotten it fixed yet for safari, look in the conversation with Ernie. He said they made some improvements but if that doesn't work, you can try the solution I found.
