Andy Green Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Hi I keep getting logged out of the site when I close my browser (Chrome). I know it does this if you log in with another device however this isn't the case. Anyone else? Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Privett Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 It's certainly happened to me at times in the past Andy. I have been logged out a few times this week, but that's because I've logged-on during the day using my phone. Before this week though I haven't been logged-out (without reason) for quite a while. I'm using Chrome on Win10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bott - Moderator Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I have no trouble with Chrome. I do have the odd period when I keep getting logged out, but I traced that to my iPad which kept logging in even though it was in the bedroom while I was using a laptop downstairs.

NormB Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Chrome and Windows 10: stay logged in OK on all combinations of closing the Tab / browser. Must admit I've been through 'Settings' and turned off everything I can... I only log in on a desktop. Norm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete B Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Try clearing your browser's cache, Andy. I know I might sound like a well-played record as I offer the same solution for various issues but it often solves the problem. I take it you tick the 'Remember Me' box when you log in?

Andy Green Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 OK Done that, lets see what happens. Yes I ticked the Remember me. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Privett Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I didn't log-in from my phone today, and this evening I got in to here on the PC without having to log on. That's (usually) how it works for me. Win10/Chrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete B Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Been away most of the day and just seen your result, Andy. I'll get the techie to have a look at the thread - can't guarantee anything over the weekend, though... Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill_B Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Me too on my iPad (Google or Safari) and It doesn't happen with any other site or forum I'm on, only this one, but not 100% of the time. Most peculiar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use more than one device, whenever you switch over and login on the new device, you will be logged out of the other. Just another thought for those losing the login retention on one device - check your browser 'cookie' settings to make sure they're accepted. If you've set it to not accept cookies in general, you'll need to make modelflying.co.uk an exception. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clive orchard. Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Just tryed to log in again and it keeps telling me that my password is incorrect, I have reset it three times in the last few days but it's still playing up, cleared the log in box and retyped my info and it let me in?😡😡 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Privett Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Hmm, I now seem to be getting logged-out for no apparent reason again. I do log-in from other devices - mainly my phone, but hadn't even touched the browser on the phone (which doesn't have this site as one of its active pages when I check it now) since yesterday afternoon, and after being logged-on on here last night had to log-in again this morning. I also had to log-in twice yesterday on the PC, though the first time was due to me logging-in on the laptop whilst watching the F1 qualifying.

Pete B Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Thanks for giving me a nudge on this, John. I did get a reply from the techie and forgot to update the thread.... If we're talking about the same issue, it is a quirk (we're used to those, aren't we?) which is that if you're not logged in, and then log in you return to the page you were looking at previously. This is very confusing if you've had an incorrect login message then login successfully, as you return to the page which says you failed. Thus, you probably get a page such as this: Seeing that would make you think your login has been unsuccessful as that was probably the last page you viewed. Now, if you look in the upper right corner, you'll see a 'logout' button in the red bar which shows you are in fact logged in. You can navigate from that page despite the message which appears. It's a known issue but way down the priority list, I'm afraid. Does this explain your problem? Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Privett Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Not sure it explains this morning's problem, Pete. But I think it does explain something I experienced yesterday. I'm not certain about the exact sequence of events, as I wasn't really paying attention to the laptop as I was watching the F1 qualifying at the same time... But I'm fairly sure I looged-in on the laptop and seemed to have to do so 3 times, each time being told the login had failed, whereas in fact it hadn't failed - I navigated away from the "failed login" message to find I was actually already logged-in. But as I said I was only half paying attention to what I was doing, so might not have the details exactly right! I'll bear in mind your explanation next time I'm unexpectedly asked to login! - Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Green Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 I'm still being logged out, was anything found to be wrong? Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Harris - Moderator Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 It's been happening to me (pre and post W8.1 to W10 upgrade) using Firefox for 2 or 3 months now. I used to be able to stay logged in for as long as I liked until I logged in from another device. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiltshire Flyer Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 I was always being logged out, but I have to say that now I have a different phone and the latest software installed 🍏 I haven't been like logged out once yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Green Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 This is still happening for me - been quiet for a ages because if it, just logged in to vote on poll, 5 mins later I have to log in again. It cant just be me surely/ Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Green Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 Thanks Denis Tried it before, but no harm in trying again. and it logged me out again. Only seems an issue in Chrome, so might have to use IE to see if it helps. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
