To me, this sounds like something local that could be clearing cookies. Perhaps a webbrowser extension, some kind of cleaning or privacy software? :think:
Most of the time, I use Firefox. My extensions are:
...
  • Random User-Agent (have a feeling it may be this)
...

I was correct; it was the add-on listed above. I was able to add an exception, and now I'm not being logged out.


note:
The modification I made to the settings was to add the exemption:

Code: Select all

In case anyone runs into the same issue.

I not sure I can reproduce this. I am still logged in on all my devices for some time now.

Hi all,

It seems that after a period of time, I will be logged out of the forum; even when in the middle of writing a response to, or creating a new thread. Are there settings I should check to see why this may be the case?
