Have problems with the forum logging you out? Heres a solution...

There is a thread about being logged out while writing up a post and in that thread one person mentioned the best solution to the problem but it ended up getting lost in the long list of posts so I wanted to create a new post so it gets seen.

If you have a problem with getting logged out of the forum often here's how to fix it.

Log out of the forum. Now start to log back in but make sure you check the remember me box. If you have the remember me box checked the forum will put a cookie on your computer which will keep you logged in no matter how long you are inactive.

This may not solve every issue with being logged out but the vast majority of people with this problem do not use the remember me box to stay logged in and that will make your login subject to the forums default idle timer.

    Good point as I've been logged out realtivly quick in the new forum when I didn't want to be.

    There should also be default settings that Allen can set from the admin as well to increase the login time without being logged out.

        There's a problem happening with cookies if you go to both forums. Since they are both on warriorforum.com each sets a cookie and I think is interfering with the other. I'm reading something about it and I think that is what is happening...

        I'll try to find a fix..

          Allen,
          I've been back and forth to the old forum
          without any problems with either.
          Still logged into both.

            Hi,

            I wondered why a lot of Warriors said they were being logged out.

            I've been back and forth between the new and old forum too.

            I've never been logged out and I've stayed on the all day for 3 days or so. (not "on" the forum for the whole time, just logged in.)

            I'm 99.9% sure it's because, as you said, I check the remember me box.
