Anyone else having a problem getting logged out after 30 minutes?
 

This started happening right after the forum got repaired last week.

I've always stayed logged in, but now I keep getting kicked out.

I sent Eric a PM on it, but in the meantime wondering if it's happening to anyone else.

I have cleared my cache and cookies - but no change.

Thanks!

Same problem here. if I'm inactive for 15 mins or so, i have to re-log in.

Thanks, Vinny! Glad it's just not me! :)

Same here..

happens on my chromebook but not my HP laptop.. weird

edit.... I can no longer use my Chromebook, site does not recognize my password

Only happens on my desk and laptop. Not on my phone

.

No problem on my phone.

Here's my laundry list of what is broken, for me, a little before (clearly someone was mucking about a few days before) and since the forum meltdown

I can only be logged in by clicking my 911 Classifieds toolbar bookmark. Once I click that, i can click around and be logged in. Haven't check to see if I get logged out but probably do over time like Baz

If I click an email link, even if I am logged in, I get to the new window and thread post in the link but I am not logged in on that page

I think that's it

Probably because you guys are unvaccinated.

J/K, I've had the same problem on my work computer (Windows) but not my laptop (Mac).

For years I just clicked on my favorites and I was logged in. Now I have to log in every time I visit, and even when I say remember me, it doesn't remember me.

It has been that way for me since I joined PP. Never thought it was anything to complain about.

It has happened to me in the past, though not since the site problem. Tablet and a phone.

This is me, as well.

Desktop with Firefox.

It has never happened to me. Using Firefox browser with uBlock Origin if that makes a difference.

new FF up date today

still logged in as normal

The problem has not gone away. I've cleared all my history and have the latest Firefox update. Have re-started a few times. Not having this issue with two other forums I frequent, so I conclude it has to be something with Pelican.

I sent another PM to Eric, so maybe he and his team can figure it out. No way should I be getting logged back out the way I am. No way. Something is haywire.....

Try this page Baz.

That's interesting. When I click Pete's link to Technical, I stay logged in when I get over there. But when I click on a new post link in email to a Technical forum thread, I get there not logged in. Same with all email clicks.

Still, only way for me to be logged in is to click my Classifieds menu bar link in Firefox and then I can click around to get to a thread like this one and post.

Maybe it's a Firefox thing.

I don't get logged out. But if I open Chrome and go directly to search it doesn't know who I am and asks me to log in. I goto the forums then back and then it knows who I am. Doesn't worry me, just mentioning it to help with solving the mystery.

I have to log back in every time on my iPad but not my iPhone. Been that way for the past few months. I thought it was in my settings or something…….

Baz, have you asked Eric to look at this thread? I don't want to bombard him or other Pelican staff when my problem might be slightly different than yours, and others, so this thread is good for one person to see problems many of us are having.

Thanks for posting about this.SmileWavy

Hey guys,

I did let the other admins know of Baz's issue and one of our fellow admins has the same issue as well sometimes. I wish i knew what is causing this but unfortunately I don't. What I suggested was to clear all cookies and browsing data and hopefully it would work. Unfortunately it didn't for Baz :(

I'm not having issues at home on my PC or laptop, as well as the office with Windows and Firefox on all of them. Really weird stuff. I know IT has their hands full but I'll see if I can have someone take a quick look sooner. Sorry for the inconvenience folks.

Thank you Eric, much appreciated. If it helps, I use Firefox on a Mac

I just brought it up in our meeting so I'm crossing my fingers the solution is found soon for you guys.

Please post up on any other forum issues you have as well. IT will be sent this thread.

Today was the first time back on the site for the past 10 days and the problem has apparently been resolved.

When I clicked on my bookmark, I didn't even have to log in, which is how it's always been.

Thanks Eric and IT team! SmileWavy

Good luck to anyone else having any issues. Please feel free to post here if you're still having log in issues. And also if they've been resolved.

Evidently the issues are resolved. For many years my bookmark just took me to the site with no log in needed. In recent weeks I had to log in each time, even when I said remember me.

Recently, all is back to normal. Thanks for all the work Eric and the IT team. My subscription payment check is in the mail! ;)

Well - everything was back to normal until last night when the problem started happening again.

Anyone else?

Yea, I am once again back to having to log in on every visit. Whatever was wrong last time is happening again.

OK thanks - I will send another PM to Eric......

update for me, I downloaded Firefox 78.14 which is I think a good one year old version, turned off auto-updates, and it's working pretty well. I can click on email links and they open with me logged in. So going back to an earlier version worked for me.

I didn't want to import all of my bookmarks so setting up anything with a username and password has been a hassle but wellllllll worth it.

Me too. But only on my home computer using Microsoft Edge. Works fine at work where I use Google Chrome.

I use Firefox on both Windows and Android and don't experience these issues. It's hard for me to accept that a particular browser is at fault. It's more likely a plugin or setting on the browser side or configuration issue on the server side.

OK Shaun....I just went back to version 78.14 so we'll see what happens. I will let everyone know. Thanks!

Problem has now gone away. Thank you, Shaun!

Great to hear Baz!
