I have had exactly the same problem my self even rebooting my computer made no difference logged in next day and all ok

When it happened another time I just used the back arrow and started from an earlier page on which I was still logged in and started from there that seemed to clear it







Mike

what seems to happen is when you make a post you are starting another screen which does not know you are already logged in when you try to log in again you can't because you are already logged in on the system

if you use the back arrow to a screen where you are alrady logged in you can proceed to other screens

hope that helps

Assemble your post in the word processing part of your computer, copy and then paste into the forum. Simples! (squeek).

months on and I'm still getting bumped off the forum after every post, even when I tick the remember me box which I was advised to do I go to post on a second thread and it says I'm not logged in. I'm on another vbulletin forum and it never does this and I never tick the box!

Same here, it logs me out over and over again. I've pretty much given up now and have just resigned myself to it. I help run a vBulletin forum and have never had this issue, except when people don't tick the 'Remember Me' option, which I always do here, but it makes no difference. I also find it extremely frustrating that you can't edit or delete your own posts after a very short time as the edit/delete option is set so that it becomes unavailable after a set time.

This board is set up in a very basic, unsorted state. It's really not difficult to change a few settings and tweak a few things to make the forum more user-friendly and easier to use. There is a vBulletin support forum where you can find out anything you need to know. Also, why are thre no moderators here? There is no board staff to ask if you need help or want something deleting/editing.

It's very underdeveloped.

I totally agree. If the board owner would add a couple of mods it would make their life easier. Spam ads would be dealt with quicker and new member added sooner, I had to wait about 3 months from signing up to be approved to post, if I hadn't of been commercial I wouldn't have even bothered coming back!

Mods can be given as few or as many priveleges as the board owner likes.

A techy would help for a start.

Yes I used to mod on a vbulletin board, the control panel is really easy to use and set up and there's a brilliant help n support team as well as the forum to ask questions on.

When anyone wants a site to post an ad on I tell them BS forum and that this one's a nightmare! We'd all come back more if it was busier and it will only get busier if it's easier to use!



If the board owner would add one more

I'm the forum owner so your comments are directed at me.

I'm a writer who likes cp and have no pretensions of knowing what I'm doing with all this techy stuff. However I had the idea, invested a lot of time (and money) getting it going and a lot of people have made many contacts and had some jolly good sessions so, in its own clunky way, it works.

Thanks for your very helpful suggestions. Anyone who wants to help out and make it easier to use etc is more than welcome to volunteer. The more help the better as, sadly, I don't have unlimited time.

Best wishes

Thanks to Algonania for this super site, especially as it is completely free. Maybe we don't say "Thank You" often enough.
"Commercials" should be grateful to get advertising for nothing - it's expensive elsewhere.
Hopefully, the whingers will put their technical expertise where their typing digits are and help Algonania as he as requested. Unfortunately, I don't have the expertise myself.

Yes thanks Algonania for all your hard work - why don't you put in a thread wanted one or 2 keen moderators to help you out, shed some or your workload? Just give them limited mod access and it takes some pressure off you to approve new members and remove spam etc?

I'm very grateful for free ads, all the sites are free mike except itc-mag where it's £1, (£2 if you want a photo) but well worth it as I get weekly clients from there whereas here I get one every 2 months if I'm lucky. And if I buy itc advert tokens in bulk it works out at 60p!

Sorry for the whinging I'm just trying to help, the other vbulletin boards don't log you out after each and every post and you would get far more traffic if you fixed the glitch which vbulletin support could do for you in less than 24hrs if you report the problem.

Usually this board also won't let me log back in more than twice in any 24hr period so I can only ever post on 2 threads in any one day.

Yes, i am also very grateful that someone has put the time & effort into getting this site up & running, however I am sorry to say that I appear to have the same problems, I keep getting logged out after a short while & I can't get back on for a while.

It would be nice to see someone with "techy" skills to come forward to help, would do so myself but havn't got the know how.

Forget my previous "hissy", I would like to stay on here, must learn to be more patient.
