Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
Are any of you perhaps mixing the HTTPS and HTTP versions of the site? I wonder if that might be causing issues with cookies. Making the site entirely https only is problematic due to external image links and so on though, at present.
Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
I think I'm always on the http version, although I couldn't swear to it. Happened again this morning.

Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
If you go to this page, mark all and delete, does this help possibly?
Otherwise, I wonder if your IP address is changing significantly or something...

Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
I deleted it out. I closed my browser, opened a new session, logged in, marked myself to be remembered. Went through a few pages. Closed Chrome again, fired it back up, I'm asked to log in again. I check the link and I now have two different login keys for the same IP address.orudge wrote:If you go to this page, mark all and delete, does this help possibly?

Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
Below are my login keys since this started occurring. Can you see anything particularly weird that might cause it Owen? It does cover three different physical addresses. (Sorry about the rubbish formatting, won't show up nicely for me).

Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
Hm, not really. What I would maybe suggest is wait and try again once I force-enable SSL on the site, which will probably be fairly soon (next week or two).
Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
This may have fixed the problem. I closed Chrome, opened it back up, had to log back in again, but another close/restart of Chrome had me logged in automatically.

Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
Somebody on another forum suggested that a feature in Chrome called "data saver" may have been responsible for them being constantly logged out. It looks like it would proxy and compress data on-the-fly, but by doing so would potentially cause requests from lots of different IP addresses in a single phpBB session. Since we switched to HTTPS, this feature would no longer work. If everybody who was experiencing these problems before was using Chrome, then it could be that this feature was responsible, if of course you had it enabled.

Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
That'd be a major spanner in the works. Data saver is the only reason I can actually use the internet on my phone in a manner that doesn't kill the data within a day
Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
The problem has come back for me. *sigh*

Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
So, I've started to experience this on my Work PC. Google Chrome, normally has several live spreadsheets open (not sure if this would affect it), as well as also logging into and out of secure web pages. Any of these factor's possibly have an influence on that?

Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
Everyone should just switch (back) to Firefox.
I'm afraid I don't know what might be causing this. I'm not aware of any configuration issues on the forums themselves, and nothing has profoundly changed (other than enabling SSL recently) in years.
If I come across any suggestions or thoughts on this elsewhere I'll let you know.

Re: Repeatedly Logged Out
No incognito here, either.
