so damn annoying

[baly]

I'm going to rant. So many times I'm writing a long review about eliquids, go to post it and guess what? I've been signed out and lose all my review.

Maybe I should just keep it simple ' nice eliquid good vape'.

I'm fuming grrrrrrrrrrr

I have to say that it is annoying how quickly the site signs you out unless I'm on a phone or tablet it seems to time out after 5-10 minutes

Something that long can be typed up in a word processing program first so you can save as you go

Have you been clicking the "Remember Me" box when you sign in?

What browser are you using? Perhaps there is something in your cookie settings that is not keeping your login session active? In all my time at this site I've never been automatically logged out, even if I walk away from my computer for a while with the forum open

If you are definitely, absolutely checking the "Remember Me" box when logging in - and it's still logging you out within 10 minutes - then it's time to try logging out, clearing your browser cookies for ECF, and logging back in again. See if that fixes it.

Why don't you do your Review Off-Line and then Copy-n-Paste it to where you want it to be posted?

This used to work pretty well, though I haven't actually used it in years (or ever, on Chrome)

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lazarus-form-recovery/

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/lazarus-form-recovery/loljledaigphbcpfhfmgopdkppkifgno

Recent versions of Firefox (well... strictly Iceweasel, but it's basically the same thing) give me a 'Recover saved form' button by default, which may be why it's stopped being developed.

Might be worth trying a different browser, if you have that option.

Hi all , I use google at the moment, I will actually write reviews in word then copy and paste, makes sense.

Thanks you all, unless someone else has similar issues I think I can say rant over, and maybe close the thread?

Cheers baly

Haha, I just came here to gripe about the same thing. This is the only forum I know that automatically logs me off while I'm actively on the forum. I'm using Chrome...no other forums do this. A lot of times when logged into other forums, I'll leave my browser open, close the lid on my laptop, wake up the next morning and I'm still logged in...what's up with this? I can be in the middle of typing a reply here and hit post and dang I've been logged out...

If you aren't checking the Remember Me box, you'll get logged out.

works exactly that way for me in here! xp pro - ff latest version

until you get it straightened out doing a copy and paste of the text before hitting post seems to me to be the easiest way to avoid frustration
