Could I make an admin suggestion?

I have been having problems staying logged in after navigating around the site and from reading some of the other threads I think others are too at times.

Clearning cookies does not seem to solve the problem however I think it is a cookie type problem. I don't see where it says what type of forum we're using here but it reminds me of an updated version of phpbb forum.

If so there are a couple of solutions that admin might try:

1. If the forum has recently been upgraded to a newer version check the cookie settings. There must be 2 ( . ) in the cookie path. such as .ampminsure.org

2. There should be a box or selection box for something like "check browser for better security" , this is not really needed so you can uncheck this box if you have it checked.

One of these suggestions might be the clue to the logout problems if this is a phpbb.

I have not used phpbb forums in many years but this was a type of problem with it back when I did use them.

Hope this helps
:lol:

Thank you Mega, I have no clue what this computer talk is, but keep having to log in yesterday. I did not notice the problem until yesterday, so I don't know if something had changed or what. I actually restored my computer thinking it was on my end of things here, but if you are having the same problem, then it is not me.

Sorry didn't mean to make it sound like it was a biggy. I just had something similar happen back when I had a forum and also on my joomla sites and it usually turns out to be cookie related.

Meant it to be only a suggestion if you had not already considered that.

It never sounded a biggy to me Mike. :)
