Logging in....?

For the last few days when viewing the forum on mobile (iPhone) I need to log in each time I view the forum, which is a right pain in the arse!
I'm assuming it's not an issue with the formum / site as I've seen no similar posts mentioning this issue, so what can I do to stop it happening? I've closed all apps, rebooted the phone, ticked the 'remember me' box etc. but still the same problem!!? Help!!!

I end up writing a reply then it says I'm not logged in so it redirects me to another page to log in, then when I log in it reloads the topic which I was replying too and the reply I initially wrote has gone so I have to re-type.

Don't worry. Your comments haven't been missed.

Not had similar on my Windows phone so maybe iPhone related, the board has been perfect after some initial teething problems with adverts.

The simple solution is to copy what you wrote to the clipboard and paste it back in, this forum for some reason doesnt always keep you logged in, so work around it.

As the board is PHP based, it's probably a "session-length" setting somewhere where only admins can get to it.
It seems to be set at around 5m/300s at the moment.

I assume something has changed then - it wasn't doing it a few days ago. It also seems to do it when switching between wi-fi and 4g, walking through somewhere with lots of wi-fi locations.

Had this issue before Xmas.
Annoying if you have written a long reply/post.
I didn't do anything it has just seemed to sort itself out.

If you connection to the site is being disconnected (whilst switching from one network to another (4G > Wifi), your php-session could be deemed invalid, and a new session would be created. So, when you go to POST something, the board will check your active (new) session and see that you have not logged in yet.

It wasn't an issue previously though, IAmAClaret.
It's not just when going to post, it can simply be when refreshing the page when next viewing. It still happens when I've not switched between a networks.
It's not a major issue, but a pain in the arse each time I view the board

I know, something has changed - hopefully one of the MOD's can get it fixed.

Check to see if your browser is in incognito mode. This can sometimes cause this kind of issue.

Is that a phone setting, Aggi?

A browser setting. Depends which browser you're using exactly where the setting will be.

Its been the same since new year lost numerous post.
If you continue through the log in procedure after you have initially logged in you lose everything you've wrote I copy and paste it now just to make sure

Two problems being reported here.
1. Having to login each visit
2. Being timed out.
Certainly seen no examples of 2 but I've occasionally had to login when on my phone but not on the PC. That maybe suggests the mobile version of the board and not the desktop. I'll forward it on to DiBraidio.

I find when Im logged in on my iphone using wifi I stay logged in until the wifi drops off. So If im inside and go outside and back in I'll be logged off. If im using 4g I'll stay logged in for ages.

I normally log in via Firefox and recently updated it but when I log in now
it tells me that my log in and the site isn't secure and in addition suggests I contact the sites
administrator to see what can be done.
Anyone got any ideas as to what can be done?

Try contacting the administrator as advised.

I have had to log in more often than normal recently after renewing the cache last week. No hassle for me though most websites are the same.

What I mean is an older OS on an older computer unlike my newer iPad (which is the problem computer) bizarrely.

Ah I'm with you. Assume the fix is some update from a site admin perspective then.
Hopefully di bradio can sort it
