I have to log in every time I open the page. Anyone else having this issue?

Tick the "Remember Me" box the next time you log in. You will still be logged out periodically, but not as often.

I created a special password for this site that I use nowhere else and let my browser remember it for me. Makes the occasional relog easier.

I always check remember me, and it logged me out on my phone several times yesterday.

Yeah I always do that. I've been a member for almost the entire time this sites been online, and this happened one time in the past. I think there must be updates or some security things going on that keeps logging me out.

I get logged out a lot on my phone, but on my laptop I never get logged out. I think it has to do with how the forum handles IP switching.

I haven't had that problem.

It could also be your browser, if you set it to not keep site cookies. Or run it in "in-private" or "incognito" mode or et cetera.

It has happened to me very occasionally, but 3 times just today. And that's with "Remember me."

Hm I haven’t had any problems on a few machine I typically access on. I haven’t made any changes recently. Let me take a peek and see if I can spot any issues. There have been reports of this type of thing before and I don’t know why but I virtually never have problems so it can be tricky to identify - I may ask for more information if I don’t see anything ti try to nail down why it’s happening to you.

Same here. Issue seems to only be when I log in from my phone.

I go back and forth between my computer and phone. I think it happens on my computer, after I have looked at TC on my phone.

Been happening to me more often on my computer. Every time I reboot or the system goes into suspend.
