You have an edit button for 4 hours after you post.

This an apparent issue one member is having, however it is unrelated to the being logged out issue.

I keep getting signed out when attempting to post. Anyone familiar with this glitch? I'll likely have to sign in again to post this as well. [yep, I did] Is there a way to change passwords? Maybe that might help?

test post on laptop just to see if I can see the edit button here

edit: it works on laptop, looks like its either willowtigger being stupid, or willowtigger's phone being stupid

Test post. So, I've disabled cookies concerning this site. Let's see what happens. I'm not exactly computer literate so pardons. Heyyy...it seemed to work. Let's see if this edit posts. Second edit. Seems like all is well so far. 3rd edit. Nope. Booted me out. I guess I'm missing something. Has everyone gotten the fix to work? Is there a definite fix yet? Again...I ain't tech-savvy.

Seems to be working for me now. I just checked the keep me signed in box. When I log out I assume I'm fully logged out? I'm not into social media so my understanding is limited with this stuff. Anyway....I seem to be able to post so hurrah and hep ho!

I still haven't had any change with the login issue. It's still going on like above.

I utilize the Opera web browser and I cleared my cookies and cache for the whole thing (Not just MSF). I even unsaved the password from my password manager (on the off chance that qualified as saved data) and logged out. It was a boatload of laughs trying to log back in as I'd completely forgotten the password and this issue interfered with my password reset.

Finally, I tried logging into MSF on Chrome which I don't use for much of anything anymore. Exact same issue

I too was having issues last night after clearing my cookies and cache both just for this site specifically and in general. It actually got worse. I tried using different browsers that I never used too. Let's see if this posts.

edit: logged me out again

I just checked the 'keep me signed in' box next to my name and password when signing in and this seems to have solved the problem for me. I figured it was worth a try and it worked. Maybe there are other issues with different operating systems I don't know. I hope the headache goes away soon if that's the case.

I might be OK now. I haven't had a surprise logout yet and I've been on about 10 minutes.
