Title: The Forum keeps looking me out?
Post by: TheDvEight on April 25, 2023, 08:28:19 PM
Hello,:byebye:

No Biggy but when I click new posts or on a post to view it the forum logs me out? I do have ad-block and a vpn running whenever I use my pc so maybe that's the issue? just wondering how i'd fix this issue.:eyebrow:

Clicking the remember me box doesn't work/save my preference to stay logged in all of the time.:sideways:

Thanks

uhh title was meant to mean logging me out

If you shortcut this link to new posts, does it lock you out or take you to the new posts?

I suspect this will be a problem on your end, I've not been logged out of this forum in years!

Most likely your browser isn't saving cookies.

If you're using incognito or an equivalent mode, that'll do it. I'd try resetting browser settings, or just using a different browser first to see if that solves the issue.

Check for a setting that clears cookies each time your shut down your browser. Newly installed anit-malware apps like to go all OCD on that one.

Yes, still logs me out.

I'm using chrome to browse the web and normal windows firewall and anti-virus settings.

I think I've fixed it by turning this chrome setting off -


"Clear cookies and site data when you close all windows
When on, you'll also be signed out of Chrome"

Yes, that would do it.

If you're keen on clearing your porn cookies when you close Chrome you can just set //www.deadmen.co.uk as an exception.
