Being signed out

If I don't post or read something for a while on Pprune ( a while being not long, maybe an hour), even though I leave it open, I am nowadays being signed out and have to sign in again.

Not a major snag but a bit haemoirrhoidal nonetheless.

What's going on? Never happened in olden times (last week for example)

I suspect admin have been trying to limit the size of the session table.

IIRC vBulletin is not too keen on large numbers of concurrent users.

But this never happened before, when there were many more members on line. So why now all of a sudden?

If you are still having problems try deleting every single cookie with the word pprune in it. One may have become corrupted - we haven't done anything to limit users and log ons.

Shut down your browser, restart it and log in again. Don't forget to tick the 'remember me' box if others don't use PPRuNe from your machine. If you have another browser to use you could see if it has a similar problem and forgets your log on.

Thanks for your prompt attention.

As it happens I did a clean up recently and deleted browsing history, temp internet files and cookies.

I use Chrome for pprune.

My ithingy does not sign me out. Seems to remember me.
