Just now I logged in and searched for new posts. Each time I went to read a new post I was logged out. Have cookies changed or something, I don't allow persistent cookies, only session cookies. If it isn't cookies I don't get it, why is my session being expired even when I've just logged in?

Yes, I am using Firefox 3. I haven't had this problem since I posted here though, it might have been to do with SmokeyJoe fiddling around with forum settings or something.
Sorry Denni, I can't advise you, I'm not very good with technical things, I'm baffled too.

If your using addons from firefox2 they are not configured for 3 and can cause freezing and loging problems etc.. ive been experiencing this since i changed to firefox3 .. im now using chrome with no problems.. and firefox when needed..dont think its SJ..

Ooops, haven't followed this thread.
I thought it might be my script blockers so I've granted permission to this site, but it makes no difference.
No problems in the past few days, but today I seem to be thrown off every 5 mins.
I'm using Firefox, wouldn't use anything else (there are issues with Chrome) and the site ought to be compliant. I have version 2 because I'm not a fan of unnecessary upgrades.

I joined about a week ago and have been logging on every time. However, each time I try to post a reply to a thread I am warned that I am not logged on and have to log on every time again.
I DID notice that I cannot post and seem logged off if I open the thread in another ff 3 tab BUT even when I try to post from the same tab for the first time, I'm still asked to log on again.
Just my 2 cents but at least I'm at my 7th post so I'm on my way to full membership
Maybe a full member has the privilege of staying logged on for longer

What Kate said, make sure your cookies are working ok. Firefox 3 is never a problem for me....
SJ here is a question for you i think the server is getting to overloaded cause i only can click or read a few post then i get server buzy msg then i have to wait like 45 mins to do it again
Cookies are accepted from this site, but I'm still getting randomly logged off.
I must remember to copy the text before sending: I have just lost a long-ish post
ECF is the only forum where I have that particular problem, out of half a dozen or so.
Saying that, it's great that the site is running so well since you moved it. The logging off issue is really a minor problem (so long as I remember to copy my posts )

There is a newer thread around where someone else was having this problem (or was it you? lol)
Anyhoo...I can't find it right now so I don't know if they had a solution for it or not. That's happened to me on other forums. Pain in the ...., ain't it?

Hmmn, it could be the session length. Any idea how long you have to have been on before it does this?
I can't say I've seen it myself.....

Just checked - it's set at 15 minutes. If there's no activity, you'll be logged off - Is that annoying? I could up it, but it will have to come down again in the future if there's loads of server activity.

i think a good medium is 30 mins that way some people could get the long winded out before having to re log
