  • Session expiration

    Is there a way to change the session time-out on this board? It seems like my session times out really quickly, like within a minute or two, and if I don't interact with the server within that time, I'm automatically logged out. It drives me crazy. I took a few minutes replying to a message, and by the time I clicked 'submit', the session had timed out and I had to log in again before I could post. I haven't had this problem on other sites, even those that appear to use the same software.

    I'm pretty certain it's something the admin would have to change and I don't know that it can be done on a per user basis. Send Lebowski a PM.

      Just click "Remember Me?" when you log in and it won't time out on you.

        I wondered if that was the magic. Sometimes I log in using computers that I don't want to have my username and password cookied to. I guess that's the price I pay, huh?

          Yeah. I guess you just need to be sure to log out afterward. And if you're that worried you can clear the cookies also. PITA I know, but I'm unaware of any other alternative to what you are seeking. Maybe Lebowski knows.

            No idea.
