Logged out after 5 minutes

[whelmplay]

Hi,

 

When I am logged in and I am idle for 5 minutes, the forum logs me out.

Is this a common issue or should I search the issue on my end_

I’ve been part of this forum for 20+ years and never been logged out. Of course, it’s also possible that I’ve never been idle for 5 minutes, but I just tried it. I researched other stuff on the web without closing this window and more than 5 minutes later, here I still am. I’m on a MacBook Air running MacOS Sonoma 14.2.1 and Safari.

Maybe your router gives you a new dhcp address after idle timeout?

Perhaps something is clearing your cookies. Some privacy addon or app? Is it a mobile device?
