I'm getting logged out by Wilders. I've logged in successfully 3 times in the last 10mins or so. The first time I got logged out when I tried to edit a post.
Hi minimalist, that screen was what I saw so I think you're correct. The thing is I thought "stay logged in" means always ie including when you leave the site. Since I delete cookies on browser close and close browser after each site visit I didn't think it was relevant. I'll see what happens on this visit.
Unless I tick that box I am logged out after so long being inactive. With that box checked I am not logged out unless I close my browser. I have my browsers set to delete cookies on closing too.
@Krusty - interesting. Thanks for that. Do you have a time frame for "inactive". I'm pretty sure I was busy scrolling around and doing stuff and getting logged out at the same time. It never occurred to me that checkbox meant anything other than a persistent login.
I couldn't give you a time frame. I've noticed it while watching live YouTube streams recently though.
Not if you log out before leaving forum. Also credentials are not saved in cookie. You only get session cookie.
Thank you. Also, I'm going to consider the next info as an extension of your answer: https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/72836/are-passwords-stored-in-the-cookie-encrypted and this: https://security.stackexchange.com/...als-stored-when-remember-password-is-selected
