Well it looks like I'm getting logged out of the forum every 5 minutes or so. Seems different than just a week ago, I wonder if something has changed?
 
Are you on the tbforums domain or the turbobricks domain? Tbforums is the new one, I had the same issue when I used old bookmarks to the old turbobricks domain.
 
Yeah, I'm on (and normally use) https://forums.turbobricks.com .

It's just that I'll be reading or looking around in the forum (at the correct domain name) and suddenly I'm "no longer logged in / log-in again" which is weird. I'm not really sure what's going on, but I guess I'll keep an eye on it. Pretty weird.
 
When we moved hosts, i was able to get all the SSL certs i wanted

Do you think it might be because when I'm at work, I'm behind a (single) HTTP Proxy? This doesn't seem to affect me at all when I'm at home, but at work it is definitely logging me out every 10 minutes or so.

Also, just FYI, when I get email from the forum about subscribed threads it uses the "https://forums.tbforums.com" address.
 
like is it on a timer? like you can browse around for 10 minutes and then its like you're logged out? thats odd - i dont think we have a cache setting like that. I know that when i click a link and its going to the http vs. https domain or the tbforums domain i have to log in again - I think i might be able to fix this with a cookie setting but not in this version of the software. I will go back and see if I can reconfigure everything to be https://forums.turbobricks.com for now. Eventually it will just be turbobricks.com and the site will be the board etc.

Well it's more like I click around a bit in the forum after having re-logged-in, then I go and do some work for a bit and let it idle, then after probably 5-10 minutes I go click around on (same tab, same browser) and it now asks me to log in. If I do the same thing from home I have no problem at all. In fact I can go over a week I think without it asking me to re-log-in. I tell you, it's pretty weird and changed within the past month I'd say. I'm 95% sure nothing changed on my single http proxy server so that system isn't any different before and after this started happening! Really weird. Pretty annoying actually :-( I guess I'll keep looking at it to see if I can tell anything.
 
Yeah thats kinda weird, almost like your PC is clearing your cookies on a timer? I wonder if theres a setting for the proxy to keep you logged in.

For me it was when someone would post a link to another thread or something and it would be the other domain.
