Here on my home PC, I must login everytime come to the Tree - works fine from my work 'puter though, and no other forum site does this. Is anyone else having this issue? Even though I click the 'remember me' box, the site has Virtual Alzheimers........
http://www.survivalmonkey.com/forum/welcome-new-members/15615-getting-logged-out-site.html If you still have troubles, let me know and I can walk you through some things. Here's the basic fix: Log out by clicking 'Log Out' Clear your browser cookies, cache and history Close your browser Restart browser browse to Code: www.survivalmonkey.com/forum/ (try using www if you are not already) Login and check 'Remember Me' If that doesn't work add these steps after 'close browser': Uninstall browser Reinstall browser Shut Down PC Remove Hard Drive Remove RAM Unplug power supply and count to 20 Turn off power to house at main breaker Turn on power to house at main breaker Count to 20 and plug in power supply Install RAM Install HDD Turn on PC Uninstall browser Install Browser Install different browser Install different OS Change passwords
YGBSM!!! If your work machine remains on line (on the web) SM should not drop you and force re-logging in unless you let the inactivity timer expire, which I think is set to two hours. If the timer expires 'cause you didn't do anything, you gotta log back in. At home, if you close the browser, SM drops you, and you'll have to log back in. "Remember me" does not automatically log you in, it simply remembers your user name and password so you can log back in with one click. At least that's the way it used to work; I've stopped using remember me, so I haven't tested that mode recently. MS XP, Firefox here.
I think that there are some that never have to log back in with 'remember me' checked. I think this (My cookies, cache and history clear each time I close browser) because whenever I've made a change that reset or altered the cookies on the server, I've had people email me for their password stating that they've not had to log in for months...
Could be, I changed some things several months ago in the cookie department, but made no changes in the cache or history that I can remember now. Before that, with remember me checked, I was in one clik login mode.
with vBulletin software, this can happen when the forum software is updated. In fact, it's a quite frequent occurrence for me when the vBulletin boards I visit are updated (using FireFox or IE). This generally means the cookie is "cooked" and you need to dump the cookie and login again. I haven't had this happen to me using Google Chrome...yet.
