yep me too every time I check the box but still it seems after 24hrs I have to re log in. Chrome has the details saved just annoying I have to wait an extra 5 seconds to access all the amazing content!

I've always put it down to our network load balancer, as we switch between IP as load goes up and down.

Check your internet security settings and that options like "clear history on exit" aren't selected. It's hard to say for each browser (IE 11, Chrome or FIrefox) but sounds like your cookies aren't being saved properly. Maybe this would of been better in the forum bugs section, but...

Mine stays logged in on desktop and iPhone but the iPad disconnects every time.

All settings are the same.

I've been using sketchy hotel internet the past week and still not needed to login. But on my mobile (android) i do loose the session very often and have to log back in.

What browser are you guys using. @monte (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=878) @garrardrj (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=2621) @usmangti (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=9350)

@dazza (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=10457) I'm using the Chrome app on android, and also safari and chrome on ipad. I only use a PC at work but never stay logged in here.

I use Safari on my iPod, Dolphin on my iPad, Chrome on my Android phone and tablet and Firefox on my PC. All of those keep me logged in...

I've just cleared my cache and website data so I'll see if that works  :smiley:

I haven't clicked logout for about 6 years, should we be?!  :laugh: :grin: :P

The latest browser builds hold so much absolute sh*t of cache and temp files, doesn't surprise me with this sort of issue.

No problems from either iPhone 5 or Macbook pro

Well I can report that I was faced with the Log in page when I opened the Forum link just now  :fighting:

Never had any problems in the past....and I've never clicked on Log out.
I think it's just been since around jan-feb this year.


 :mad:  Come on mods/admin. If this is happening to lots of people this needs looking at.  :happy2:

I often have problems logging in to the forum. I'll put my username and password in and when I enter it the screen just goes back to the login page as if I haven't entered any details. No matter how many times I do it I still can't log in.

@dazza (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=10457) Just to follow up on this, I have tried clearing cache and cookies and still have the same issue. TBH I have always had this since joining the forum, so I'm used to it. I'm also a member on another forum but that keeps me logged in.
Title: Re: LOG IN, LOG OUT, LOG IN, LOG OUT
Post by: dazza on April 17, 2015, 01:15:04 pm
I've made a small change to the cookie settings don't think it will solve the problem. Some testing please!! @usmangti (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=9350)

Its seems to be a 24hr thing for me. I'll see how I get along tonight because its in the evenings I have to log in again
Title: Re: LOG IN, LOG OUT, LOG IN, LOG OUT
Post by: rich83 on April 17, 2015, 01:56:43 pm
Can you log out and then use the actual login page to log in rather than the quick login at the top right.

Title: Re: LOG IN, LOG OUT, LOG IN, LOG OUT
Post by: usmangti on April 17, 2015, 03:20:10 pm
That is the page that comes up. Usually there is a tab already opened if I refresh it or choose home it brings up that link. My details are pre-populated though.

Did the changes i made make any difference?? @usmangti (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=9350)
Title: Re: LOG IN, LOG OUT, LOG IN, LOG OUT
Post by: simonp on April 18, 2015, 08:55:30 pm
Probably doesn't make any difference, but I always delete the numbers in the minutes box before ticking the keep me logged in box...

@dazza (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=10457) i think it has! Ive not been on the forum all day up to now and was expecting it to ask me to log in and it didnt. So seems like it has worked. Ill let you know again 2moro.
Title: Re: LOG IN, LOG OUT, LOG IN, LOG OUT
Post by: monte on April 20, 2015, 12:12:30 am
Not working for me  :sad1:

I've deleted the numbers,
Checked the box,
Tried entering 9999 mins,
Left it at 2000mins,
Cleared cache, web data, history,

Everything.

If I leave the site now, 30mins later it would say Welcome Guest.  :fighting2:

Unfortunately it asked me to log in again today so the problem is still there. @monte (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=878) its not as frequent as that for me though!

Post by: monte on May 29, 2015, 10:56:50 pm
FINALLY  :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove:

Sorted it  :happy2:

For some reason my iPhone6 was set on Private Browsing  :surprised:
This meant all my history and passwords are temporary.

Only realised when I tried to view a previous page using "History" in Safari.
It was blank???  I did s search and yes, my iPhone was set to Private.

All working now  :wink:

Good to see you got it sorted mate
Title: Re: LOG IN, LOG OUT, LOG IN, LOG OUT
Post by: monte on May 29, 2015, 11:17:40 pm
Cheers Andy  :happy2:

If anyone has the same problem on IPhones just open safari and touch bottom right of the screen.
You will get a page showing all the open Safari windows. The "Private" button is in the Left bottom corner and there is "+" and "Done" is also on the bottom tool bar.

Here's a pic...
