No, I have disabled the remove the 'Remember Me' after XX days feature so you should always be logged back in automatically. Certainly works for me. Have you tried deleting the board cookies using the link at the bottom of the page? Also which browser are you using? Please try a different one just to check things out.

Thanks for the suggestions David.
Tried deleting all board cookies overnight - it didn't work. Browser I'm using is Firefox in auto secure setting (HTTPS).
Will try a different browser Sunday tonight when I'm back to see what happens

I seem to have some problems with the templates- I only get we_universal and ProSilver.

Has something changed ? It looks different then it did the past 5 weeks....

Thanks for showing me,

But both don't have the "unread posts" quicklink ? It is behind the menu button...

Depends on which 'style' you have selected which is why I am going to get everyone using the same one very shortly - multiple choice of styles is becoming a support nightmare!

I am guessing you are one of the five members using 'prosilver special edition' and that hides the quick links in a hamburger menu:

Suggest you change the style to we-universal in your User Control Panel. It makes the Forum much more user friendly I think.

Am now back to we_universal. I you use an iPad, its a bit cluttered when you also have the favorites menu on- the screen becomes a bit small. But it works in full screen mode.

I have now tried a different browser (Microsoft Edge) & the problem has gone away, so it is clearly an issue with Firefox high security browsing using HTTPS settings.
I have now disabled Kasperky add-on Smart HTTPS in Firefox so that it remains in HTTP which was the issue, now I stay logged in on HTTP but not on HTTPS.

Hover over your username (top right) then select profile.
On profile screen select edit profile (top middle of screen by username).

I am finding a few gremlins such as the National Flags at the bottom of the home page do not display and I seem to have to log on every time rather than having the login retained. I will investigate but I think it may be the wrong version of SQL which is the problem.

Spoke too soon - was remembering me yesterday but I am now having to login each visit today - the remember me box is ticked - I assume that is not working.

I can get in now without logging on, but have found that a post I made does not appear . Strange . I shall give it some time to settle down

edit : even stranger .... this one has appeared perfectly, so apparently all is well

There seems to be a problem with accessing Photobucket (or at least some of their servers) at the moment which means photos and avatars may not display correctly in posts. You will see a small coloured square instead of the photo. I will chase it up with Photobucket.

David, I have PMs stuck in my out box. I can't figure out how to get them to move on. Any advice? Hope its just an operator error.

Sorry for the use of public bandwidth, but I can't send you a PM!
