Automatic logout
 

I'm getting logged out after a couple of hours. It only started happening this week. Until now, I left the tab open all the time and was able to make posts all the time. Now I have to log in every time I look at the forum. Is anyone else seeing this?

Sounds like a dorked up cookie. Have you tried clearing yet?

Re: Automatic logout
 

I don't think I've logged in this decade. Have no idea what my password is.

Re: Automatic logout
 

^Same here. I'm always on.

I like this idea. This is going to my official response.

Seriously though it does make sense. Cookies store login info for a lot of sites. Clearing them would screw blow away your pw for all your other sites if you are saving them, but it could fix this issue.

Yesterday I cleared the cache and deleted all my cookies. I even loaded the new release of Firefox 34.0. Today I'm still getting logged out. I think it only took an hour. Is IB running a hidden script that I'm blocking?

Re: Automatic logout
 

Are you clicking "remember me" when you log in?

Re: Automatic logout
 

I took a look at your account and there's nothing out of the ordinary Nick. I'll do some research to see if this is a known VB Bulletin issue or something.

Re: Automatic logout
 

Yes, every time.

Re: Automatic logout
 

Is it possible your browser is set to clear cookies when you browse around other sites while logged into DVDTalk? Try using a different browser and see if it helps.

It may be a new VBulletin thing. Now another forum is doing it to me too.

I'm still getting logged out after an hour or three. It even happens while I'm reading posts at DT.

Take the hint.

Re: Automatic logout
 

I repeat this because there hasn't been any change on your account at all that I can see (you didn't update your email addy recently I assume?). So the most likely cause is your browser. Have you recently changed it/changed settings/added plugins/upgraded it?

Re: Automatic logout
 

I've been logged in for four days straight. I haven't made any changes at my end, except for the normal update for Firefox. Still, the problem seems to be solved.

Re: Automatic logout
 

I've been logged in for a week now. Problem solved.

It looks like my problem was caused by the Firefox extension X-Notifier. I don't know why, but when I disable it, the other site doesn't log me off and I can click on links.
