I am having a related problem with the login. Under the old WordPress we used on my site I would simply go to the website and WordPress remembered my username and password, allowing me to go straight to work. Now, after switching to 26.1, when I enter WordPress my user name shows up but I must enter my password each time. But it gets better! (Or worse, if you like.) After I have entered my item (I use Mac OS X 10.5.4, browser is Safari 3.1.2), i like to go to the display page and see how the new item looks. When I return to do more work, I also have to login again. Any help on this one also greatly appreciated.
