Takes me several tries to post anything, especially with pictures.
Password saved, "keep me logged in" checked - doesn't matter, keep getting logged out in the middle of doing anything.....

Also have you done the usual "clear your cookies" routine?

I made a change to one of the security settings. Let me know if that makes any difference at all on your logging out issues.

Still getting logged out. And now if I click the "keep me logged in" button it says invalid user or someting similar.

Yes keep me posted - I'll also keep a lookout for unusually high spammer activity. That's what those settings are there for but I guess we gotta strike a balance! :)

The only time I get logged out is on my Iphone but that's due to keeping my browser on the Private Browsing settings.

My apologies on this to all. In an effort to keep bots away I must have reset cookies making it difficult to get back in.
Keeping clear of cookie settings for a long time now.

Can you go through this and see if you have your cookies enabled?

Let me know what you find, if you do have them enabled see if there is a way to delete them and *hopefully* the option should return.

Hi there. I am on MacOS Safari in private mode usually. After a short amount of inactivity (mayeb an hour? havne't timed it) I get logged out and have to log in again. This app is a low risk in terms of hijacking an unattended session I think. Would it be possible to set the default timeout to something longer, maybe 24 hours? Many thanks!

I changed the session time from 1 hr to 24 hours.
But if you are able to choose the "Keep Me Logged In" option this shouldn't matter. But for those who can't at least this should extend your ability to stay on.

Checked, but my system settings for Safari allows cookies already.

Ok let me know if it continues as I changed the session length a couple of hours ago.

Changing “prevent cross-site tracking” may have worked for me.

OK - logged in last night, still logged in now after about 14 hours inactive. So the timeout change appears to be working. Very much appreciate the quick turnaround.

Awesome!
So glad to hear when a change actually makes a difference!
