    Keep Getting Logged Off

    In the past I was always able to be stayed logged into this site. Now, every time I leave I automatically get logged off and have to re log-in the next time I visit. I have checked the remember me box and also cleared cookies but that didn't help. It's a minor issue but I'm curious, did something change? I don't have this issue anywhere else.

    Nothing has changed recently and I'm having no issues with staying logged in on any of my devices. What browser / OS are you using?

      I get this occasionally about once every two or three years with Safari. After three or four days of this, I switch browsers for a week or two (in which I don't have the log in problem) and then go back to Safari and it works fine. Clearing cookies don't help. Only time and a backup browser for a week or two helps me.

      I have a backup browser and a third & fourth that I use on rare occasions for checking things under specific circumstances.
      My browsers and the order of use:
      1. Safari
      2. Duck Duck Go
      3. Brave (a Mozilla iteration)
      4. Firefox

        I'll try using another browser and see what that does. I've been using Firefox and I know that it can be sketchy sometimes so maybe that's my issue.

          FYI, it must be an issue with Firefox. Today when I opened the site in Firefox it wanted me to login again. I switched over to another browser that I had logged in to yesterday and I was still logged in there.

            That is what I experience on occasion as I mentioned above. After a couple of weeks, go back to FireFox and see if it is working.

          I never get logged off, or at least it is infrequent... I am using Chrome.

            I log on using a desktop, two laptops, and a couple of phones around my home, all using Chrome. I hardly ever find myself logged off, only sometimes when I have not used the device for a long time - probably more than a week.
