Recently I keep getting signed out of the forum after signing on. This often happens almost instantly (i.e. I sign on, go to view something but get taken back to the sign on page instead of what I want to view). I did eventually manage to post a message a few minutes ago, but it took me a couple of attempts (was sgned on, typed the message, but when I pressed the Submit button I got taken back to the sign on page).

Just wondering if anybody else is having similar problems? I have tried a couple of different browsers (Chrome & Firefox), but the problem occurs in both. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
David H.

p.s. same thing happened trying to post this message - hopefully this second attempt is successful ...

try selecting the "Log me on automatically each visit" before logging in.

You are not alone David. :wink:

Mark M. shared that he has been having issues with a firewall that was enable on GoDaddy's end of their hosting. He's been trying to work on a solution but it's still an issue. It seems to have issues in spurts for me. I will be fine for weeks at a time, then get kicked repeatedly for a day or two and then things settle down for another few weeks. As Roger said, when you do go to re-sign in, click that Log me in automatically box each time, so hopefully when it settles down for you, it will keep you singed in longer.

Also I have been getting into the habit of coping my posts contents to my clipboard before I click Submit incase I get kicked out, as that seems to be one of the triggers. Which is super annoying. :roll: I have lost several replies to other peoples posts and then did not go back to re-input the reply because I needed to get back to other work. :?

Thanks Roger, that setting used to 'stick', but I notice that the box is unchecked each time now, so I have checked it this time and if I don't get taken back to the sign on page when I try to submit this then that is probably helping.

I hadn't copied the text (wished I had as soon as I saw the sign on page :? ), but pressing my browser back button I was able to go back to the page which still had the text I had typed in it :D

Thanks for your responses...
