    Resolved [RESOLVED] Website timeout

    I'm sure I'm not the first person to say this, but I think the login timeout is pretty short. I'll be on the site then do a little research then come back to it and have to login again... I'm not sure how long the timeout is, but it's pretty short.

    Are you checking the "Remember Me" checkbox when you login?

    As stated, the remember me check box is important is is enabling cookies.

    Re: Website timeout

    I never get timed out and I stay logged in on several boxes for days and weeks on end.

    Now that I've said it like that I'm a little scared

    Thanks everyone. I didn't realize that the "Remember Me" checkbox had that effect. I will certainly use it the next time a login

    It may just be me, but a handle like that would be hard to forget (sorry, couldn't resist).
