Is there any way to lengthen the time we have a post window open? I often find I get half way through a reply, stop to search a link to a tech article in a new window, and when I come back my login has expired. If I don't copy my reply it will all be lost while I go through the login process again. This issue seems to be unique to this forum.

Solutions? Anyone else having trouble with this?

I never have this problem. I know everything and never have to look anything up. Sometimes I just guess.

Very odd, I've only experienced an expired token a few times and it's usually after days of inactivity

It's your computer or browser would be my thought

Never saw this myself here.

That said, if you continue to experience this problem, just cut & paste your post into a text editor (Notepad, for example), and cut & paste it back to Pelican when you are complete.

It is rather strange. I can leave the forum without logging out for an hour or more and when I come back my login is still active. Only while mid-post does it expire. Win7/ Firefox is the typical software but perhaps it is a finicky virus/malware software that sees an open window and moves to shut it.

Copy/past is my best solution when I remember to do it... Did ya ever forget...

I have not seen that option here but generally I would not choose that and don't have this issue on other forums.
