Automatically Logging Out

Post by cactus155 »

Hello

For some reason the forum keeps automatically logging me out when I click on Board Index or Home when I want to go and read another forum.
Just thought I would let you know and see if there was any suggestions for a solution to this issue.

Thanks

I go to quick links above Home, perhaps it's the way you do it. Then click on Active topics. See if that helps

Mine was doing that, but my browser was old (windows 7).
Since the IT guy gave me a new desktop.....no problems!

Pressing "Home" logs me out too, but if I press "Board Index", keep pressing "Return to ...." at the bottom of the page, or just use the back button I'm fine. Weird. My computer is running on Windows 10 and has been recently rebuilt by our TSO and it still does it.

I keep getting logged out as well - for instance just then when I clicked on the reply button. Gets tiresome.

Since I joined chemtalk I've always been logged out even when clicking remember me.
I've tried internet explorer, chrome and edge, they all do it even after clearing cookies.
Don't know what the problem is #-o

Logging me out too. I actually rarely use the Home button, just go to new topics or the board index. sure enough, I hit Home and I'm logged out. Interesting. I guess I can live without the Home button but it does seem to be a problem.
