Good afternoon

I've noted the above for 2/3 days but did not report it fearing it was my laptop. However, having cleared/checked etc, all other sites I visit do not appear to have a problem,

When I am trying to respond to a post etc, often does not work and often chucks me out, and have to login again.

If you guys feel it is my end, I apologise for the thread and please delete it. However, as stated above, the other sites are not having any problems.

Many thanks,

    I am having to log in every hour or so too today, while browsing the forum. So personally I don't think it's on your end, @diystarter7 :)

    Yes, it is ticked off. I am doing everything as I always do, before today I don't remember when I last had to log in and today it's been at least 5-6 times already that I had to do it.

    Hi @Zuzi - what type of device and which web browser are you using?

    (I have been signed out a few times today in Safari but it seems OK in Chrome so I'm wondering if there's a browser-specific issue here?)

    Thanks.

    I've also noted when I am responding, the post appears to show every post and then i have difficulty posting it and at times chucked out.
    IMO, there is a bug in the system.
    Take care and enjoy your weekend
    :)

    I've had the same issue since yesterday - it keeps logging me out every couple of hours.  I'm using Firefox on a desktop, and have been doing so for years, so I don't think it's anything that's changed at my end.  Hopefully you'll manage to get it fixed :smile:

    It logs me out almost exactly 60 mins after logging in - every time since yesterday afternoon. It makes no difference what I do during the hour I am logged in (W10 -Chrome)

    I suspect a problem with a cookie. I'm trying to find more data.

    Almost certainly a cookie issue.
    Having the same problem with login expiring after ~60mins. This is with Firefox running on Debian.

    Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –
