    Default Forum keeps logging me out

    Why does the forum keep logging me out?

    I have it set to remember me and it always has done so. Now, every time I leave I am immediately logged out.

    Me too. Started yesterday morning.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    Likewise here. It's been happening since the downtime over the weekend.

    I had to log in once yesterday, but now everything is back to normal for me.

    Using IE.

    I've been like this since about for ever. If I leave it for about ten minutes, it logs me out.

    At home (on FF) I now regularly have to log in again. At work (on IE) it works fine.

    Perhaps it is a cookie issue?

    I would recommend clearing your cookies, closing your browser, re-open then use the org then, it should work.

    If you're using Firefox, have a look under Tools > Options > Privacy. Accept third party cookies is presumably ticked, as you're able to use the site. In the drop down box, it should read Keep until they expire. Underneath that is a box titled Clear history when Firefox closes. Untick it.

    That box was ticked indeed. Thank you Pannonian for the assist. You earned a Pizzaguy award for helpfulness.

    I only have a very old version of Opera, but on mine, under File > Preferences > Privacy, there's a box titled Delete cookies when exiting Opera, that should be unticked.

    You know, it would help if people give more info, such a browser they're using, etc. If you ring helpdesk with the complaint "My computer doesn't work", but with no further info, you're not likely to get things fixed.

    What does it say in your Privacy tab? Which boxes are ticked, which boxes are unticked, what does the dropdown box say, etc.?

    Hello,

    It also does that for me with FF, but right now it doesn't. Maybe I need to reset the sessions.

    We are indeed. We've even found out that one of the admins uses IE. Blimey.

    No problems here...

    I have a whole bunch of computers which I frequent during a week. I had to log on one time on each computer since the last maintenance.
    The last one at my work place today, returning from Swineflu quarantine, had the username and password ready in the log-on fields. I just had to press log on. Common for all is one log on and its been ok since.

    Same here. I had to log in a single time, and that is it. And I do use Firefox.

    Your workplace computer was suffering from swine flu? Did it have any injections? Silicon injections, perhaps?
