Just a quick question for the administrators of the forum. I'm a daily visitor to the site and an irregular contributor, however I've noticed that I have been automatically logged off the forum on a number of occasions, despite ticking the box "Remember Me". The latest instance was today. Can this be looked at and please advise me what I can do to avoid this irregular annoyance?

Cheers,

Hi Greg - Are you saying after a certain amount of idle time the forum logs you out? And you have to login again?

Hi Admin,

When I login I tick the box "Remember Me" and I remain logged in over quite a few weeks, or even months. However, my next daily visit to the forum sees me logged out without me actually logging out. Then I have to go through the process of logging in again. The latest instance of this was 25/8/19, east coast Australian time.

Hopefully you will have an answer to my 1st world problem.

Cheers,

Well it has happened again. This morning at approximately 9.20am, Australian Eastern Standard Time, I had to login. Nothing changed from yesterday when I was online. I still don't understand why I was automatically logged off in the last 24 hours. An explanation of what is happening and what I'm doing that causes this situation would be appreciated.

Cheers,

I have the same problem from time to time I find I am logged out and have to re-log back in.

Don't know why if it is associated with a limited time from the site or something else. Same thing happens on my iPhone.

Not sure we will be able to provide an explanation. Is it that horrible or just a minor annoyance?

It isn't a horrible, just an inconvenience. Another first world problem to overcome 😱!

My guess would be a setting on one of your other devises or in your general settings.

It could be a default setting reset when your software was updated.
