Administrators SuperDan Posted March 1, 2006 Administrators Share Posted March 1, 2006 What is the time set before someone gets logged off. If you checked the remember me box during login and never use the logout link I think the session lifetime is something like 7 years. I have been logged off several times going through reading and posting.

John Scott Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I've had cleared cookies, logged in, made post then won't accept. Login again, make post, won't accept. Sometimes if I make post, log in, won't accept I hit back button until I get to the post then it accepts. Me thinks There's a ghost in the machine.

pparaska Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 I just lost another post due to this. I don't know how long this has been happening but it's at least the last few weeks. I get automatically logged off about every maybe hour or so. I'll be typing a response, not even a long one, and get logged of in the mean time and lose the post. This is getting REALLY annoying! I can't see hardly any of the stuff in the Admin control panel that I used to be able to see. So I have no way of seeing what the default log off time is. But I vote to increase it by a bunch! No, I don't want to "stay logged in forever" either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pparaska Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Dan, The "Time-Out for Cookie" setting is set to 900sec=15minutes. Could we up that to like an hour or something! That's why I keep getting logged out - sometimes I get distracted while creating a post, or just take a long time to research stuff as I write it and by the time I click "Submit", I've been "logged out" (the cookie timed out) and I loose what I post. I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting this increased. But you're da boss. PS thanks for opening more of the stuff up for me to access in the Admin Ctrl panel.

pparaska Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 FYI, SuperDan increase the Cookie Time Out to 1.5 hours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike kZ Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 FYI, SuperDan increase the Cookie Time Out to 1.5 hours Are sure that's not 1.5 weeks? For the last 2 days or so I can't log off, I just keep accumulating posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pparaska Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 What do you mean you can't log off? If you click "Log Out" at the top right on the dark menu bar at the top right of the screen, it doesn't log you out? What do you mean by "I just keep accumulating posts"?

Mike kZ Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 This is what I'm talking about http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=109483 . The posts never disappear. I still have posts a week old that ar still highlighted. If I log off, and then log back on, they used to go away, not anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pparaska Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Mike, I think you're referring to read/unread posts (regular or bold font in the "Posts Last xxx" search result? That's different than the automatic log off cookie, although that cookie does seem to affect the read/unread posts function. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
