I don't know why but i am always getting logged out about every 10 mins. when i never needed to log in b4 unless i deleted all my cookies.
is the cookie set to a timed relesal? because of the forum upgrade?
PS: yes i did have remember me checked, and i have/had my prefrences set to remember me!
and one more thing: I had to log in twice when i mad this thred!
Did this start with the change to VBulletin 3? As far as I know this is not a new "feature" and so far nobody else has reported the same behaviour. I looked at your account and everything seems OK. Could this be a problem with your server or firewall?
I havent changed any of my settings in a while. yes this did start happening when the forum upgraded.
I am going to try setting my cookie to read-only and see if that workds
PS: I had soem trubble a while back that i couldn't log out these two may be related :confused:
ok, setting the cookie to read-only didn't work, it just disgarded the old cookie and made a new one
Have you tried loggin out and log back in? Also this might be a long short but is your computer's time & date set correctly?
I suggest trying to clear your cookies. I know the forum will indicate you are logged out after a given non-active period; however, if you have "remember me" checked then when you come back or do something, you should automagically be logged back in.
Try clearing the cookie so a new one is created.
Brad!
well, i did a time update, and sofar i havent had to log back in!
so, electroman i guess you were rite.
i must have set my time back trying to save a trial software! :o
It happens to me now with the new version if I have my anonyminity software up and running. Otherwise its keeping me logged in. I rather dislike turning off my GhostSurf everytime I come to the forum tho.
Is there anyway we can change the non-active period? I asked this question a long time ago and the response i received was that it didn't have anything to do with vbforums.
Whats the timer set at now?
Im not quite sure but in my opinion it's way too short.
I could be wrong, but as far as I can tell, there isn't one.Quote:

BTW Marty I don't believe it will be a setting but rather built into the software wheer it sets the cookies. Don't know that for sure there could be an option but I suspect there isn't :).
EDIT: Yea its exactly 15minutes, I just saw Electrobob log out eventually after being inactive for 15minutes.
